DainKae

DainKae is the slash ship between Kaeya Alberich and Dainsleif from the Genshin Impact fandom.

Canon
Kaeya and Dainsleif are yet to interact in the canon and as far as we know they do not know each other. They both are decent from Khaenri'ah and this seems to be the main reason people theorize they are connected.

Fanon
DainKae is a rarepair within the Genshin community because of their lack of clear connection. Many who ship it believe in the Kaeya prince theory in which Kaeya is speculated to be the prince of Khaenri'ah. This would give the two a clear connection as Dainsleif was canonically a royal guard for the nation. This troupe of a prince and someone of lower status falling in love is typically the idea of the ship though many simply think their yin and yang personalities would be interesting together. Many theorize that Dainsleif would be the one to call Kaeya back to Khaenri'ah meaning they would reunite.

There is a sizable amount of fan work on them ranging from fanfictions to art. However, Mihoyo has yet to produce art of the two together. DainKae currently has 151+ works on Archive of our own. This ship has some rivals despite the popularity, which are KaeLumi, Kaether, KaeLuc, KaeLisa, HalfDain, Kaebedo and DainsLumi.
