Astral Express Guide
Astral Express
May this journey lead us starward
Hi, Trailblazers~
This time, Pom-Pom brought you a guide for the Astral Express! Not only is it important transportation accompanying you in your trailblazing journey, the Express also has many services waiting for you to experience.
Pom-Pom
Second stop: The Astral Express
As the Stellaron proliferated across the galaxy, the Astral Express that carried Akivili the Trailblaze's will was also affected and was run aground. o(╥﹏╥)o
Fortunately, a girl with red hair chanced upon the Express and was fascinated by the stories held within. She spent hours restoring the Express to its original state and restarted its trailblazing expedition! ヽ(￣▽￣)୨
The Astral Express Tourist Guide
Next, Pom-Pom will introduce Trailblazers to the Express~ The Astral express followed Akivili's footsteps and stopped at each destination. We used to stop at many worlds, and will continue to explore in the future as we journey to the countless "next stops" in the galaxy.
Accompanied by stars and bounded by the universe, the Astral Express will bring Trailblazers on the long, endless journey to experience unique worlds. As the conductor, Pom-Pom will be staying aboard the Astral Express and continuously provide Trailblazers with all kinds of services, from explanations to meals along the ride~
Welcome, and enjoy your trailblazing expedition!
Please keep in mind:
Trailblazers, Pom-Pom is ecstatic that you are joining us! There are currently four passengers on the Express. All of them are from different worlds with different backgrounds. Mayhaps, they will be heading to a different destination. However, for as long as they are among the crew, we will be sharing this journey together, so we look forward to going on this journey with you, Trailblazers.
The train is about to make the jump,
Sit tight!
According to the Astral Express Safety Instructions, Pom-Pom is obligated to inform you, "Sit in an orderly fashion and do not stand up. Pay close attention when you're going through the warp jump. Keep your seat belts fastened, the meal cart is not a place for playing cards!"
To conserve medical resources we have available, please refrain from emulating Passenger March 7th standing in the middle of the corridor while during a warp jump!
CAUTION!
Do Not Emulate
Number of Times March 7th Stood Successfully During Warp Jump: 0
Passenger's private space,
Knock before you enter!
Along the exhausting journey, Trailblazers can choose to rest inside the Express Sleeper Compartment as well as to visit friends! Reminder from Pom-Pom: Before entering other people's rooms, remember to obtain consent from the resident of the room! I heard Passenger Dan Heng's room had just completed renovation, maybe he'll be up to having you as his guests, Trailblazers~
The Astral Express Who's Who Guide
Trailblazers, are you going to introduce some new friends to Pom-Pom?
Pom-Pom
Pom-Pom is the Astral Express' conductor. Whenever the Trailblazer requires help on the Astral Express, Pom-Pom will be there. Pom-Pom will continually provide premium service to all the Express passengers!
Himeko
Ta-da~ This is the red-haired girl Pom-Pom mentioned, Passenger Himeko! That was a long time ago though. Himeko is now a very seasoned scientist as well as the navigator of the Express. Pom-Pom is very grateful that she managed to repair and restart the Astral Express. Of course, it would be even better if she would give up on making coffee!!!
Welt
To Pom-Pom's understanding, Passenger Welt is not here of his own volition. He was someone who saved the world a number of times. For more information, maybe you can ask him yourselves, Trailblazers...
Dan Heng
Passenger Dan Heng is usually quiet and mostly takes the role of a guard on this trailblazing journey. He also helps Pom-Pom out by managing the Express' scouting data and archives. If there is anything that you couldn't solve, he would be the best person to ask!
March 7th
Pom-Pom remembers the first time we met Passenger March 7th. She was sealed inside a piece of floating eternal ice! However, it took her no time to adapt to the environment of the Express. She also raised a lot of valuable suggestions for service on the Express, but whether to adopt them, Pom-Pom still needs to consider at length...
The Astral Express Entertainment Guide
There Is No End to Learning and Progressing!
If Trailblazers wish to brush up on human ecology, geological features, or other data from worlds that the Express had come across, you can access them through the Galactic Archives on the terminal in the database room. At the moment, this task is under Dan Heng's purview, so feel free to go bother him to learn more~
Life's Hard, Have Some Music!
Pom-Pom likes these inky discs called vinyl records! Himeko said these things cost a bomb but can store and replay melodies from the past. If you are interested in them, go ahead to the Phonograph to check it out.
If you come across things like this in your adventures, remember to bring some back~ Welt would be overjoyed if you can!
Let's call it a day. For intel on more regions, stay tuned to Pom-Pom. Also, Trailblazers, remember to go and check out the locations by yourselves~
