Eulogistic Butterfly

(First interaction)

You remember Castorice once spoke of the origins of Eulogistic Butterflies. Some believe them to be the final obsession of the deceased, others believe them to be ThanatosDeath Titan's messengers.

They are always found in places where many have met their demise.

Eulogistic Butterfly: Lost human, if you can say one last thing before leaving this world, what would it be?

"I'm going to do a deep eepy."

Eulogistic Butterfly: Short and to the point.

"I want to live five hundred more years..."

Eulogistic Butterfly: A demand proclaimed.

"Farewell, Honkai: Star Rail!"

Eulogistic Butterfly: Farewell.

"I left my trailblazing legacy at..."

Eulogistic Butterfly: Such suspense.

(I live if I stay quiet, right?)

Eulogistic Butterfly: Death is fair to all.

Eulogistic Butterfly: I still recall the last words of some of the deceased, if you're curious...

I'm interested in some last words.

Eulogistic Butterfly: Of course. Whose parting words would you like to hear the most?

The rulers of the different city states...

Eulogistic Butterfly: I recall that an optimistic ruler once said, "I have finished my business here, and I die without regrets."

Eulogistic Butterfly: Someone asked another ruler, on his deathbed, who his successor would be. He only said "The strongest."

Eulogistic Butterfly: Another one suffered so much pain that she gave this order to her doctor, "Kill me, or be guilty of regicide."

Eulogistic Butterfly: ...I remember one of the rulers only said "Water" before dying.

The heroes in war...

Eulogistic Butterfly: Before his execution at the hands of the enemy, a soldier said, "The only thing I wish to say in this last moment is that I can only give my life for my city-state once."

Eulogistic Butterfly: Many more soldiers didn't know when death would come. One said, "Tell them that it hurts really bad on one side of my body."

Eulogistic Butterfly: The old captain who traversed many seas died from illness on dry land. She said, "Please help me put on my clothes and armor, and let me die like a proper soldier." She was buried by the sea in the end.

The poets who wrote great works...

Eulogistic Butterfly: Before his death, a poet asked his poet son, "Tell me, Alexander, on your soul and conscience — do you believe my works will be passed on after I die?"

Eulogistic Butterfly: A poet spent her life pursuing new verses, till the very end. "I seek no healer in the Courtyard to declare my demise, for I shall proclaim this freedom with my own cries."

Eulogistic Butterfly: Another poet died during his performance. His final line was, "ThanatosDeath Titan promised me a better world."

The nameless commoners...

Eulogistic Butterfly: There was a philosopher of the Grove who tried to pick some apricots but was scolded by his wife. He said, "So what if I picked them? What the *Amphoreus profanity* is going to happen?" Moments later, he died.

Eulogistic Butterfly: When asked how they are feeling, someone replied, "I feel good and comfortable. I must sleep now... Take the pillows away. I don't need them anymore."

Eulogistic Butterfly: There was a person who felt a sudden headache, and her last words were, "What's happening?"

Thank you. That's all for now.

Eulogistic Butterfly: You can come back any time.

You seem to know a lot about last words.

Eulogistic Butterfly: I don't understand them. I'm merely curious about them.

Eulogistic Butterfly: A poet from Okhema once said that last words are "words of wisdom, uttered with a lingering breath, that deliver oneself gracefully to Thanatos'Death Titans side."

Eulogistic Butterfly: However, he himself discovered that "at the moment before death, one's body and mind become unreliable as the candle burns out." In the end, his last words ended abruptly with, "If we meet again..."

Eulogistic Butterfly: Most humans don't have an elaborate phrase to go with their demise, let alone exciting stories, insights into history, or affectionate farewells... The majority are completely unprepared for death, hence the lack of proper last words.

Eulogistic Butterfly: Would the living imagine their dying words? Perhaps, but in the end, they didn't get a chance to speak those words...

Say hi to Castorice for me.

Eulogistic Butterfly: I will give her your regards.

Eulogistic Butterfly: Last words are from those closest to death. In this fleeting phrase, the identities of the living and the deceased converge — as if the weight of these words would tip the delicate balance of the scale of life irrevocably toward one side.

Eulogistic Butterfly: I still recall the last words of some of the deceased, if you're curious...

Eulogistic Butterfly: Lost human, have you ever thought about your own epitaph?

"(Trailblazer) Has Gone Offline."

Eulogistic Butterfly: Interesting take.

"(Trailblazer), a Trailblazer."

Eulogistic Butterfly: Simple and concise.

Isn't it a bit too early for that?

Eulogistic Butterfly: Then leave that work to others.

I probably won't need one.

Eulogistic Butterfly: I see.

Eulogistic Butterfly: I still recall some of the deceased's epitaph. I can tell you if you're curious.

I'm very interested in epitaphs.

Eulogistic Butterfly: Of course. What kind of epitaphs are you more interested in?

Those that died in their beds...

Eulogistic Butterfly: These are engravings found near the City of Janus —

Eulogistic Butterfly: I, Theano, lived in Okhema and spent my final 30 years in Janusopolis. I lived a good life and died a beautiful death.

Eulogistic Butterfly: Tu fui, ego eris.

Those that died young...

Eulogistic Butterfly: These are engravings left on a battlefield —

Eulogistic Butterfly: This passage is dedicated to those who perished in the Battle of Oleinus:

Eulogistic Butterfly: Oh, time, the omnipotent Oronyx, please deliver news of our fate to all.

Eulogistic Butterfly: To preserve the sacredness of the Veil of Evernight, we slumber forever on the famed Oleinus Plains.

Those distinguished and respected...

Eulogistic Butterfly: This is engraved on a sage's tomb near the Grove of Epiphany —

Eulogistic Butterfly: Oh scholar, hear me. The body of Empedocles rests below.

Eulogistic Butterfly: His soul became one with the grave. As such, Georios's land is now greater than Aquila's skies.

The nameless ones...

Eulogistic Butterfly: This is an engraving near Mythemis —

Eulogistic Butterfly: Here lies Dmitrios, a poor but honest man. He is exceptionally good at sea fishing. This marlin measures an incredible 18 feet long.

Eulogistic Butterfly: Until Thanatos, jealous of his achievements, drove him out of the business.

Eulogistic Butterfly: They caught him with a hook and placed him here.

Thank you. That's all for now.

Eulogistic Butterfly: You can come back any time.

You seem to know a lot about epitaphs.

Eulogistic Butterfly: I don't understand them. I've simply been wandering in front of too many graves.

Eulogistic Butterfly: Mourning continues beyond the act of burial. To erect a tombstone and to leave behind a few words... These are appropriate ways to acknowledge the life of the deceased and steps toward completing this long farewell.

Eulogistic Butterfly: But how does one define a long life with just a handful of words? The records of struggle, joy, tragedy, and victory of those before would surely hold some revelation for generations to come.

Eulogistic Butterfly: Epitaphs possess a deeply moving power, thus the experience of visiting a graveyard is invaluable. Please allow me to recommend it.

Say hi to Castorice for me.

Eulogistic Butterfly: I will give her your regards.

Eulogistic Butterfly: The epitaph. Some call it the summary of life. If the tombstone is regarded as an everlasting existence, then what words should people leave on it for the time to come?

Eulogistic Butterfly: I still recall some of the deceased's epitaph. I can tell you if you're curious.
