The Mavuika reveal was released on all official Genshin Impact accounts as well as HoYoLAB.

Titled "The Brightest, Most Splendid, Most Resplendent Flame Reborn," the post has quotes from the Hexenzirkel and Varka, the Grandmaster of the Knights of Favonius.

"Even in the complex tapestry of Teyvat's night sky, such a dazzling constellation is seldom seen. Its scorching radiance is as though it wants to burn a hole in the very fabric of the sky itself. When it finally becomes a shooting star streaking toward the horizon, that fire will kindle even the deepest, coldest nights into brightest day."

- Sighed by "B" during a divination

The first quote is by "B," said during a divination. Barbeloth, Mona's master fits this bill.

"Mavuika? Ohh! You mean the one who competed with me in the Stadium of the Sacred Flame! Hahaha, you'd think an Archon could hold their liquor better than that! Uh... what? They said I got wasted first? No freaking way, not a chance! That day, I was... uh, hang on a sec, now why did I go see the Pyro Archon that day again...?"

- Varka's response to Alice's question about the results of the "meeting" in Natlan, as he scratched his head in thought

The next quote is from Varka, the Grandmaster of the Knights of Favonius, in a conversation with Alice, Klee's mother and the founder of Hexenzirkel.
