Genshin Impact: Alice’s Gift Hints at Major Mondstadt Shift
Alice sends a mysterious new book to Mondstadt Library, igniting speculation about lore, future banners, and event rewards in Genshin Impact.
EarlyGG Mondstadt’s Library Gains a Mysterious Tome: What Alice’s Gift Means for Genshin Impact’s Future
A new arrival at Mondstadt Library has captured the community’s attention—a book gifted by the enigmatic Alice. Official Genshin Impact channels confirmed the drop, accompanied by a suite of character artwork and cryptic lore teasers. For seasoned and new Travelers alike, Alice’s involvement signals far-reaching implications across Teyvat’s storylines, potential events, and future banners.
With patch 4.7 introducing banner rotations and event shakeups, Alice’s gift lands at a pivotal juncture, encouraging Travelers to prepare for the unknown and rethink resource strategies.
Context: Building Anticipation in Post-4.7 Mondstadt
Recent phases saw banner reruns and the highly-anticipated Luna III event setting new engagement records (full breakdown). Now, Mondstadt, often quiet in recent updates, is showing signs of renewed narrative focus. The timing of Alice's book is deliberate—just after major Sumeru and Fontaine arcs—suggesting Mondstadt could soon retake the spotlight.

Potential Ties: Events, Lore, and Roster Shifts
Alice, already a legendary presence in Genshin lore (Klee’s mother, master adventurer, and notorious wild card), rarely steps directly into the narrative. Her gifts and correspondences have repeatedly foreshadowed significant in-game events—the Golden Apple Archipelago being the most memorable. The new tome’s arrival arrives amid:
- Lingering threads about ancient Mondstadt
- Speculation regarding unreleased Mondstadt characters
- Community requests for lore-heavy world quests
- A lull in Mondstadt region updates
Given Alice’s track record, this gift could serve as a catalyst for:
- Limited-time event chains centered around magical research or storytelling
- Playable character reveals from Mondstadt’s unannounced roster
- Region upgrades including new domains or explorable lore spots
Unconfirmed — subject to change: No official event, banner, or quest connected to the book is listed in Hoyoverse’s patch 4.7 notes as of 2024-06-10.
Banner & Event Scheduling
At time of publication, no direct banner or event tie-in to Alice’s gift is announced, but recent patterns suggest:
| Phase | Start Date | End Date | Expected Focus |
|---|---|---|---|
| Phase 1 | 2024-06-05 | 2024-06-25 | Standard reruns (No Mondstadt tie) |
| Phase 2 | 2024-06-25 | 2024-07-15 | To Be Announced (TBA) |
| Event Lead? | TBA | TBA | Unconfirmed (Alice content) |
Note: Event and banner calendar draws from in-game schedule and official notices. No changes from routine banner rotations attributable to Alice’s involvement as of this writing. For current gacha details see EarlyGG’s Genshin Impact hub.
What Should Travelers Do?
F2P and Low-Spend:
- Hold Primogems if anticipating Mondstadt banners or Alice-linked events. Avoid spending on off-region reruns if lore or story-first.
- Complete all current Mondstadt world quests—there may be event gating ahead.
- Monitor official news every patch reset (12:00 server time) for surprise events or mail rewards tied to Alice’s book.
Optimizers/Collectors:
- Stockpile enhancement materials relevant to Mondstadt units and rare ascension items.
- Diversify team builds; Alice’s lore often favors creative or off-meta mechanics.
- Log daily to claim time-limited rewards; surprise login bonuses sometimes drop alongside special lore events.
Past Precedent & Industry Perspective
Historically, Alice’s interventions mark seismic shifts for Genshin’s event formula—she drove collaborative quests, alternate map spaces (see Golden Apple rerun), and deep lore drops. This aligns with an industry-wide trend: leveraging mysterious NPCs or legacy characters to prime new region expansions. In Genshin’s case, the community’s response is overwhelmingly speculative, with fan theories multiplying across social platforms.
Conclusion: Prepare for a New Mondstadt Era
While details about Alice’s gift remain limited, its placement in official marketing materials is deliberate. Whether the tome leads to playable characters, monumental events, or simply enriches Mondstadt’s lore, Travelers should position themselves for rapid response—both in resource management and quest completion.
