May someone pretty please explain teyvat’s fate to me? I tried to understand it but i couldn’t

Is it just me, or am I starting to notice that everything said about the Primordial One is presented from perspectives that make him seem like a villain in the story?

For example, people used to think he punished the koitar js because she fall in love and punished her and the entire angle for KOITAR sin , but it later turned out she was involved in rebellion , she even invited other angles in this rebellion .. and allowed seutrvoinen to introduce knowledge AND forbidden things to human. Which way it clarify things for me .. i was always wondering why would the PO punish some angels while other not?

Another example is how people said he destroyed Hyperborea just because they sought knowledge, but later it was revealed that they had outside (extraterrestrial) knowledge brought to them, and on top of that, they were using forbidden things in Teyvat not just pursuing knowledge.

And then Khaenri’ah , at first we thought that it was destroyed just because it was an advanced, godless civilization and they wanted control. But the Abyss was clearly a factor too. We still don’t know the full history of Khaenri’ah, but what we do know so far isn’t exactly clean .. especially the Genocide that was happening

Even if you say “Apep said this” , Apep’s perspective itself isn’t necessarily reliable. Even recent artifact lore suggests new interpretations. Somehow she planted in our mind the idea that Nibelung brought the Abyss to fight the Primordial One .. meanwhile Nibelung didn’t even know that the Primordial One was even in Teyvat when he returned. So it’s not just the Primordial One whose story is unclear.

So I’ve been thinking… is it possible that even the idea that he “invaded” or “colonized” Teyvat is also completely misrepresented? Some people say “no way, it’s written in BSAM by Istaroth!!” but it’s pretty obvious the text in the book is actually written from the perspective of Enkanomiya’s ancestors, not directly by her.

+ Half of teyvat history is unclear so i came up with this idea .. What do y’all think ?

Edited : also in TFODG i noticed a sentence that grammatically may say that Nibelung isn’t really from teyvat but i’m not sure

“It came from an unremarkable little world at the edge of the spiral arm — and from the primeval dragon that had been born alongside that world.” Alongside here doesn’t really mean he was born in teyvat
