Is Zhongli from Celestia?

Zhongli (Morax) has deep, complex ties to Celestia, but isn't directly from there; lore suggests he was possibly demoted from a higher status, making him a "Descender" (someone who came from beyond Teyvat's world). He was present at the world's beginning, served Celestia as the Geo Archon, and made contracts with them, but his current actions, like his "Contract to End All Contracts," hint at a deeper, perhaps adversarial, relationship or a plan to break free from Celestia's control, possibly involving the Tsaritsa.
