From contributor:
The text reads "Rerir", "Blasphemy against death" and "Racher of Solnari" as his title.
Rerir is an antagonists from Genshin Impact and has several components of his character that are drawn from Norse mythology and folklore. His name is of course the same as Rerir from Volsungasaga. He also has Racher as a title which means "Avenger" (i think it's germanic in origin though, but it matches the original Rerir's motives.) Solnari appears to be a combination of the names for the Goddess Sól and Loki's son Nari. Solnari has not appeared in the game so it's unsure if there's more norse inspiration there. In general though, Rerir is aligned with an order that's avenging a fallen civilization so the themes still stand.
Rerir's weapon, a polearm called Barnstokkr, is named after the tree in Volsungasaga that's very central to the plot. - Identifier
