Who are Aeons and what are their paths in Honkai Star Rail?

Aeons are the Gods in the universe of Honkai Star Rail. They preside over the galaxy and each of them represents a very specific path. It goes without saying that not all Aeons are friendly and most of them don’t care much about the mortals.

However, mortals fail to understand them either, on account of how complex these Aeons are. The only thing that mortals can do is follow a path laid by an Aeon. If they can do it successfully, they’ll be blessed with unfathomable power.

Here are the paths that each of these Aeons represents:
