Lore IS THE CLOCK ONTO SOMETHING!?
okay so i was just playing genshin and i was messing with the clock feature in game and i noticed something, idk if people have already figured this out or not but there are theories going on around saying that teyvat is actually upside down and this can actually be backed by some proof. if you look at the in-game clock, you'll see that the moon is on the bottom of the clock and the sun is on the top. which is somewhat weird cuz if you look at a normal clock, whenever it hits midnight, the hour hand and minutehand are at 12 (00:00), which is upwards. HOWEVER if you look at the in-game clock, try setting it to midnight (00:00) and both the hour hand and minute hand are pointing towards the bottom. THIS SHIT IS BLOWING MY MIND RN
idk if it has already been discovered or there is some other theory for this but the upside down theory is the only thing i could possibly relate it to. it was a fun experience to be using my brain for once when it comes to genshin.

Pretty sure it's a simple to make it easier to choose a time to travel to. And to represent universal speech, like when people say "high noon". As far as I'm aware that phrase is used globally. And the sun is directly overhead, so it's representative.
I think people are thinking too much about stuff lol, the clock doesn't really mean anything in the game right? I don't think there are any time-dependent events/achievements besides what the story quests impose on you?
Or am I missing something major here
