Elation

Last updated 2026-08-27

Devise different kinds of punchlines to entice Aha to join in the revelry.

Elation is one of the nine playable Paths in Honkai: Star Rail. It corresponds with the Aeon Aha.

Description

"The Erudition is a hunk of junk, the Preservation is a fool, the Hunt has no sense of humor, and the Destruction is a lunatic. All the Aeons are as stubborn as they come. What a shame for Aha!"
— A Masked Fool who is a self-proclaimed astronomy expert
To savor joy is a privilege unique to sentient beings. Neither the dusty rocks nor the distant stars can fathom the humor that life entails.
Go seek adversaries worthy of your mettle, games that while away the hours, and outcomes indifferent to victory or defeat.
Go chase laughter that leaves you breathless, twists born of fate's whimsy, and songs that ascend your soul.
