About Khaenri’ah and hilichurls,
Okay, I might’ve missed out on some lore since I’m a returning player but I just wanna ask: we know that hilichurls were originally people from khaenri’ah but what about mitachurls, samachurls, etc.? Are they also from khaenri’ah? What sets them apart from the people turned into hilichurls?

2. As for specifics of different Hilichurls, i'm just gonna provide some descriptions from the Archive, which you can check out in full in the game:
\- General shared Samachurl part: "Hilichurls especially gifted in commanding the elements who often reach the zenith of their skill in their twilight years."
\- Adventurer Handbook about Mitachurls: "The most formidable warriors of the hilichurl tribes.
Fighting and eating meat are the two most important things to hilichurls, because those are what make them grow stronger. All young hilichurls dream of growing up to become a big and strong mitachurl, because that way they can eat more meat, and fight more battles."
\- Adventurer Handbook about Lawachurls: "A Mitachurl that has mutated due to an accumulation of a large amount of elements in its body. They are bigger, stronger, and absolutely ferocious.
Hilichurls worship no gods and follow no order or discipline. The strongest and the most ferocious one among them is seen as fit to lead the tribe."
\- Hilichurl Cultural Customs - Vol. 3 about Lawachurls: "These powerful Hilichurls are called "Lawa" by the rest of the tribe, a respectful form of address best translated to mean "king" or "chief". However, Lawa don't actually rule over or lead the tribe at all. Rather, these large loners prefer solitude, avoiding the looks of reverence from the smaller Hilichurls."
\- Anemo Hilichurl Rogue: "Hilichurl wanderers who do not belong to any hilichurl tribe. It almost seems as if they are searching for the fated genesis of their kind, seeking to uncover some bygone splendor that once belonged to their people.
If these monsters capable of only crude language and bereft of missing history could record their own epics and legends, the hilichurl wanderers would be the heroes in said tales."
\- Hydro Hilichurl Rogue: "Hilichurl wanderers unaffiliated with any specific tribe. They can often be found roving the wilds as if in voluntary exile.
They may also lend their aid to other hilichurls or hilichurl tribes for various reasons and go their separate ways afterward. They seem to possess a higher level of intelligence than commonplace hilichurls."
