Relics
These are Relics.
Thanks.
Thanks.
So what's a relic!?
So what's a relic!?
A construct made from a data stream. Many believe they're linked to Stellarons and the Fragmentum phenomenon.
What we refer to as relics are objects corroded by the Fragmentum whose data is saved and then reconstructed.
Thanks.
Thanks.

...You could consult Herta. She's an expert in relic research.
@(Trailblazer) @March 7th @Dan Heng...
@(Trailblazer) @March 7th @Dan Heng, the sealing of the Stellaron is complete, and the spatial distortion is dissipating. Good job.
We should be back soon
We should be back soon
We'll need to stay here a little longer
We'll need to stay here a little longer
Don't rush, go at your own pace. The Express will be here, before you're ready to leave.
Great!
I'm craving some juice... Pom-Pom still owes me a glass!
How is Jarilo-VI?
Not great. Even though the influence of the Stellaron has basically subsided, the existing Fragmentum is too deeply rooted.
The Eternal Freeze has lasted a very long time, enough to severely impact the ecology of the planet.
In short, the planet probably won't regain the vitality that it once had a thousand years ago in such a short time.
Oh... How could this be?
Is there anything else we can do?
Is there anything else we can do?
...As Trailblazers, our mission has already concluded successfully. The fate of this world should be handed back to its inhabitants.
Humankind has always struggled against austere conditions and had always managed to thrive in spite of it. Now that the Eternal Freeze is gone, the Fragmentum has lost its momentum to expand.
Jarilo-VI will be revitalized. Believe in the perseverance of her people.
I detected a high-frequency spatial energy surge in the north of Jarilo-VI. You might be interested in checking it out.
Don't worry. That energy is not related to the Stellaron. It's only an Echo left behind after spatial distortions fade away.
Inside the Echo, our perceptions of space and time that we are used to will become radically altered, to the point where it might even reconstruct certain scenes from our own past experiences.
If you're in the mood and wish to re-live those memorable adventures, you can try your luck at places where Echoes can be found.
(Trailblazer), March, Dan Heng...
(During Trailblaze Mission Silent Galaxy)
(Trailblazer), March, Dan Heng... How was your rest?
Pom-Pom has completed the routine pre-departure inspection, so the Nameless is ready to move on to the next world. Come back to the Express when you've tied up all the loose ends
Oh, right. You must have so many questions about that final battle with the Supreme Guardian of Belobog. Welt and I made some simple analyses that might help shed some light on it for you
Got it! We will start our preparations now
(Trailblazer), March, where are you?
(Trailblazer), March, where are you?

I'll go find you folks.
Message failed to sendIs everything okay, Dan Heng?
(During Companion Mission Clouds Leave No Trace)
Is everything okay, Dan Heng?
(Trailblazer) and I heard you received an anonymous letter, and we were worried, so we came here to check on you, but you weren't in the archives.
Did that poker-faced Stellaron Hunter "Blade" give you any trouble again?
I'm okay...
Don't worry. I just stepped away to enjoy the view.
I went to meet some old friends.
Don't worry. I just stepped away for a bit to catch up with some old friends.
I've thrown away the letter.
Don't worry. I've got rid of that letter.
Phew, that's a relief, then.
By the way, don't forget to head back to the Express early. Himeko said she made coffee for us.
Hey, hey!
(Starting Trailblaze Mission Long Day's Journey Into Night)
Hey, hey!
Hey, hey!
...
What's up?
What's up?
Hello.
Hey, hey!
Alright, let's see what the conductor has to say first.
Are we ready to set off to the next stop?
We sure are! The warp jump device is all calibrated.
But, as the Express conductor, I have three things I wanted to stress before we depart.
That's why I'm here for this little Express meeting, too.
Alright! Then you know the rules.
We'll meet in the Parlor Car!
Are we all having fun?
Himeko invited (Trailblazer), March, and Welt to join the group chatAre we all having fun?
Lots of fun, sure
But something feels off...
It doesn't feel very real. It's odd. I can't describe it
We're in a dream, after all
We're in a dream, after all
There's some progress
There's some progress
I saw a guy wearing a plaster head sculpture at the auction, and he walked off without doing anything. That's pretty suspicious
I also had some unpleasant discoveries. It's a bit complicated. It's best if we meet up face-to-face.
Me too
Looks like a trip back to reality is overdue
Let's meet up in my room
Looks like a trip...
(During Trailblaze Mission Through a Glass Darkly)
Looks like a trip back to reality is overdue
Let's meet up in my room
I've run into a little trouble...
I've run into a little trouble...
(Message failed to send)Huh...
Huh...
(Message failed to send)You still at hotel in the dreamscape?
(During Trailblaze Mission The Devil in Velvet)
(Trailblazer)
You still at hotel in the dreamscape?
(Trailblazer)
(Trailblazer)
Have you run into trouble?
We got separated in the Memory Zone, but (Trailblazer) is with the Memokeeper
I feel so antsy
Help
March, stay calm
Do I need to get off the Express and help?
Not at the moment
Sure. Just let me know if you need me
The Reverie Hotel in the real world is very calm. Not much is happening.
— Message History —I'm done.
I finished investigating on my side.
Where should we meet?
Where are you?
I finished investigating on my side.
Where should I go to meet you?
(Trailblazer)!
(Trailblazer), it's great that you're safe.
That lady didn't do anything bad, did she?
I'm sorry... about what happened to Firefly.
The scene has been cordoned off by The Family. We're wrapping up negotiations with some Family delegates.
Let's meet somewhere near the Clockie Statue later.
Mr. Yang, our investigation...
Ask about Welt's situation.
Mr. Yang, our investigation here has come to an end
How's progress going on your end?
Not too bad. The Galaxy Ranger and I agree that The Family might be hiding something extremely important.
We're now headed to Dewlight Pavilion.
Acheron, huh? Didn't Aventurine say she was dangerous...
I've confirmed that she's on our side.
Don't worry. Please wait for a while. I'll keep you posted as soon as I find anything.
Guys, let's make our...
Guys, let's make our way to the Radiant Feldspar
I'll wrap things up soon. Let's meet at the Aft Pool in the stern
Roger
Catch you later.
I'm on my way.
I'll lead the charge!
By the way, what are you doing on the Radiant Feldspar, Miss Himeko?
What have you been up to lately, Miss Himeko?
By the way, what have you been up to lately, Miss Himeko?
Hey! I was about to ask the same thing!
![[image] Himeko smiles](https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/houkai-star-rail/images/1/1e/Sticker_PPG_02_Himeko_01.png/revision/latest?cb=20230505074123)
It's a secret for now
Be patient, you'll find out at the opening ceremony
Hey...
I can't wait!
Is everyone there?
(Upon completing Trailblaze Mission Stranger in a Strange Land)
Is everyone there?
I have something important to announce
We're getting wages?
We're going to be getting wages after this? Awesome!
Sadly, no. That's not been planned yet
The budget for the Nameless' expenditures will still be managed solely by the navigator for the time being. If there is a need among individual passengers, however, you can come to apply for an additional allowance from me
Speaking of which, why doesn't Mr. Yang ever seem to worry about money...
Mr. Yang is an exception~
Be envious, young one.
We getting better food?
The food options on the dining menu are about to be updated? The day has finally come!
Does Passenger (Trailblazer) have some points of dissatisfaction to raise about the current menu?
I guess (he/
Then, let me give a piece of personal advice: Stop scrolling through food blogger videos
I confess...
Alright, I'll spill. It is I who borrowed away Dan Heng's neck massager
So it was you.
By the way, "borrowing" is when you let someone know. If you don't, that's called "stealing."
It's just a massager. If (Trailblazer) wants one, we can order one
I checked the price as well. Let's leave the bill with (Trailblazer)
Ahem. To business. The thing I wanted to tell everyone is that the Astral Express will soon be one of the shareholders of the Penacony Conglomerate
The Family and the IPC will begin formal negotiations soon regarding the Dreamscape's reconstruction plans and commercial projects for the future
After this round of investments, the IPC will hold 30% of Penacony's shares
And the Strategic Investment Department managed to secure a significant boon for us: When the financing is done, the IPC will transfer 5% of the stocks to the Astral Express to express their sincerity in developing a long-term partnership with the Nameless
Woah
Though I don't know much about shares or options... It sounds pretty great!
I'm more curious about how future dividends will be calculated?
Are we gonna be rich?
So, does that mean we're gonna get financial independence and early retirement soon?
Oh, my. Have you been living in poverty this entire time, (Trailblazer)? You must have had it rough
Only 5%?
Hey, it's only 5%
Clearly, your financial acumen is about on par with March 7th's.
Hey!
As the ceaselessly trailblazing Nameless, we got another responsibility to shoulder regarding this agreement
As shareholders of the Penacony Conglomerate, we must bear the duty of being brand ambassadors and ensure the Planet of Festivities will no longer depart from the proper path of Harmony
Time to wield my shareholder power!
It's time to make everyone submit
Penacony, your (boy/
It's time to make everyone submit
Wait, no
It's time for everyone to remember our name!
Oh, it seems like (Trailblazer) is full of energy!
...
Hey, what are you doing?
Let (him/
I can tell (his/
Got a package delivered to the Express
(During the Cosmodyssey Event)
Got a package delivered to the Express
I do recall the Express has received one of these things before, no?
What kind of package? So mysterious
Yes. The Express' records did mention this has happened before.
Oh, that thing. I remember now
(Trailblazer), this is some good stuff. You better get back and have a look!
I already know what to expect
This is a gift specifically for me.
Who's the recipient?
Does it say who's supposed to receive it? Does it have (Trailblazer)'s name on it?
This is a package sent to the Express from another Nameless in the cosmos
I knew you'd be interested, (Trailblazer)
Remember to take a look once you get back to the Express
Got it. I'm on my way
I'll be there soon. I'm about to reach a Space Anchor
Pom-Pom will be waiting
What if Pom-Pom doesn't know?
No problem. What if the conductor doesn't know either?
Hmph. Pom-Pom thinks you're the one that doesn't have a clue
Message came a bit late
Actually, I already saw the package. Your message came a bit late, conductor
You're the one who replied late, (Trailblazer)
Is anyone there?
![(Image) [Pom-Pom Sticker - Hey!]](https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/houkai-star-rail/images/7/7c/Sticker_PPG_07_Pom-Pom_01.png/revision/latest?cb=20230717183708)
Is anyone there?
Yeah!
Yes
I've got some news for you
Whoa! Spill the beans!
Good news?
Good news, I hope?
Yeah, you could say that
Great!
Bad news, perhaps...
I have a feeling it might be bad news...
Come on! Don't jinx it!
Of course not. No worries
I've been crazy busy lately
I'm a little busy recently
Yeah, (he's/
...You're not planning to leave us, are you?
Let's catch up when you're free. Welt and I will be waiting for you in the Parlor Car
Hey~ The space station...
(Condition missing)
Hey~ The space station sent someone over with gifts. I asked the Express conductor to leave the items in the Parlor Car. Please come and help yourselves~
What are the gifts?
This sounds like Asta's doing. What would someone as rich and eccentric as her send us?
Is today special?
Weird... Is today some kind of special occasion? Why would she suddenly send us gifts?
It's all snacks and supplies and some interesting gadgets invented by the researchers
They said they wanted to repay us for our kindness and help back at the space station. Everything is a small token of their appreciation
It was nothing, really. They didn't have to do all this
I have no interest in the gifts, but I appreciate their sentiments.
Wow! I'll be right there!
By the way, make sure you come along, (Trailblazer). There's a little robot in here that would be perfect for you
Why me?
Huh? Why me? This is all a bit sudden
Do you people not want it?
???
What kind of robot? Does no one else want it?
After some discussion with the conductor, we figured it would be best for you to take it
Pom-Pom was going to use it as an Express cleaner. But considering how busy you always are, (Trailblazer), you can probably use an assistant. So, the little robot is all yours
@(Trailblazer)
Remember to visit the Parlor Car. We'll keep your stuff here for now
We've got snacks here too.
Speaking of snacks, there are certain passengers that I would like to remind not to sneak off and eat them all by themselves! Make sure you leave some for others
![(image) [Crying]](https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/houkai-star-rail/images/7/74/Sticker_PPG_07_Pom-Pom_02.png/revision/latest?cb=20230717183710)
Hey, hey!
Hey, hey!
It's been a while since the conductor greeted us with a "Hey, hey!"
That means
Time for a warp jump?
We're gearing up for a warp jump, aren't we?
Hey, hey!
Hey, hey!
...
Yes, it's time for a warp jump!
Exactly
Regarding our next destination, a passenger has given us a special tip
As usual, we'll discuss this at the navigation meeting
Meet in the Parlor Car!
Himeko, we've made a...
Himeko, we've made a smooth landing on Amphoreus. It looks like there's a civilisation down here.
I'm starving, Pom-Pom
The car's blown up! Pom-Pom, drop some food down, quick!
Farewell, my friends
Finally freed from the Express! Farewell, my prison!
Message failed to send.Everyone, the train car that...
(Upon completing Trailblaze Mission Dawn, Shine at the World's End)
Everyone, the train car that entered Amphoreus is still out of contact
March 7th's condition also seems to be getting worse
Can you read this message?
Himeko! Welt! Look at me! Can you read the messages I sent!?
The world is doomed!
Himeko! Welt! Come save me! Amphoreus is doomed!
Message failed to send.How's the situation on your end, Welt?
Things are going well so far. Herta invited Screwllum to assist us, and we had a detailed chat in the seclusion zone.
Both geniuses contributed with their knowledge. We're now closer to clearing up the mystery surrounding Amphoreus.
However... there's a lot of unexpected information. It's hard to explain everything in a text message.
I'll send you the meeting notes as a video right now.
Understood
Can I watch if I go to the space station?
Help me out, Space Anchor. I want to head to the space station and check the meeting records too
Message failed to send.Guys
Guys
The battle's over
Are you guys back on the Express?
I need a big hug from someone
I really need a big hug right now
Anyone?
Are you guys pranking me?
Why's everyone so quiet?
I'm high-key so worried, not joking here.
Everyone, you know the drill
Everyone, you know the drill
Time to depart for our next stop
Meet in the Parlor Car?
Hold on, a guest has arrived
Come to the Party Car
Himeko's looking for you
@Trailblazer @March 7th, are you alright?
I heard someone's causing trouble?
How's everyone doing?
@Trailblazer @March 7th, are you alright?
I heard you two ran into some trouble
What's going on?
We're both fine, but we ran into someone calling herself Sparxie while out shopping
She declared she'd take me and (Trailblazer) down and exclude the Express Crew from the Phantasmoon Games
So we better get moving, pronto!
So, have you all made up your minds?
I have some ideas, though I'm not sure what (Trailblazer) thinks
I'm interested in participating in the Phantasmoon Games
I've been wondering what I'd do with this power if I win, or what I could ask Aha to do for me
I'll tell you all about it when I get the chance
By the way, how's Dan Heng doing?
How are you doing over there? @Dan Heng
I've made contact with the Xianzhou envoy, but they've run into some issues and are seeking assistance.
Sunday and I are on our way.
Contact me if you need anything.
Alright, Himeko, what are we gonna do next?
I'd like to ask you to go to "Graphia Academy," my alma mater
"Location of Graphia Academy"In this school, there was a teacher called Dollie
She's my friend, who keeps the mask needed for the Phantasmoon Games
To avoid any complications, find her and get the mask first
Let's get going!
Welt and I will meet up with you
@Himeko @Dan Heng @Welt, is everyone okay?
(During Trailblaze Mission World Hunger Theater)
@Himeko @Dan Heng @Welt, is everyone okay?
Do you copy? Do you copy?
"Warning: Comms signal is weak. Please check your connection."@March 7th @Trailblazer @Sunday, Copy that, we're fine
All good on our end. @Dan Heng, give us your status too
Don't worry about us. We just fought off a wave of tentacle monsters that popped up from underground.
Phew
That said, do we really have to head to Astropolis? Don't get me wrong, it's just... I'm kinda iffy about the IPC.
Could we maybe try asking the Xianzhou or Madam Herta's Space Station for help instead?
That thought's crossed my mind too.
Distance-wise, the Xianzhou and Herta Space Station are both too far out of reach. Desperate times call for desperate means. Heading to Astropolis is still our best bet.
But the bigger headache than the distance is that the Planarcadia falls under IPC's trade network.
Under interstellar trade rules, they've got first dibs on handling it. If outsiders step in without clearance, we could be looking at a diplomatic and legal mess.
So... yeah. No other way, huh.
Trailblazer, navigation falls to you now.
Rest assured. I've got this.
Rest assured. I've got this.
I know you will. I have faith in you.
I... I don't know what to do.
I... I don't know what to do.
Don't worry. I believe in you. As the acting navigator, you'll figure it out.
Things are urgent, so we'll back whatever call you make.
"Warning: Comms signal is weak. Please check your connection."The Express has successfully returned
The Express has successfully returned. Reconnecting signal.
@Trailblazer I have arrived in Planarcadia. I am glad to see you succeeded as well.
Ah! The signal is back! Is everyone okay? @everyone Say something!
@Trailblazer We're all safe. Thank you for all your hard work
@Trailblazer, good work. You did well.
@Trailblazer Everyone is safe and sound. Don't worry.
Thank goodness, thank goodness, thank goodness!
@Trailblazer Quit acting all cool and say something!
Something
I missed you guys so much!
Thank you all for persevering till now
I missed you guys so much!

Hey fam... I won a prize!
(Upon purchasing 
Television (Limited Edition))
Television (Limited Edition))I got a souvenir from a game I played.
Hey fam... I won a prize!
Actually, it's a souvenir I got from a game I played. It's some kind of television!
Who wants to see it? I'll carry it into the Parlor Car right now!
Congratulations to (Trailblazer) for winning a television
Looks like you've reaped quite a few rewards from Penacony
Wait. Why haven't I experienced anything like this? I was at Penacony too! You're just too lucky, (Trailblazer)
Do you want to place it in the Parlor Car? Once you do, let me know. I wanna touch it. See if I smooch some luck off you
Congratulations, Passenger (Trailblazer)
Wait! Hold on! You can't put this in the Parlor Car!
![(image) [suspicion]](https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/houkai-star-rail/images/7/73/Sticker_PPG_07_Pom-Pom_07.png/revision/latest?cb=20230717183711)
Why not? Won't it be good for everyone to watch some TV on the couch?
Hmm. TV and coffee. That just might bring out the taste of home
The Parlor Car is a place to enjoy the stellar view. Pom-Pom has strict rules and regulations for every section of the Express. If we put the TV there, then it'll be the entertainment car, and that clashes with the enjoyment of scenery.
That's right. If we do this, the Parlor Car will have the Phonograph and a TV. It'll start disturbing everyone else
(Trailblazer) won't leave it there then.
Alright... If even the Passengers don't think this is a good idea, (Trailblazer) just won't leave it there! That should do it, right?
Don't mock the conductor, Passenger (Trailblazer)
Pom-Pom's speech pattern is not that exaggerated. Anyway, this isn't what's important
You're too strict, Pom-Pom...
Alright, Pom-Pom... You're so strict. I won't put it there
You can put it straight in the Passenger Cabin, (Trailblazer)
It's where the long corridor leads to that armchair. You can place it on the cabinet nearby so everyone can watch it
I see... You planned this out already, Pom-Pom. No wonder you're the conductor
If we get the chance, we can have a movie night with the television every now and then
You can watch some of the animations I've made in my homeworld. Some of the content is better viewed on a screen
Mr. Yang... Please don't fall asleep again...
![(Image) [Like]](https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/houkai-star-rail/images/2/28/Sticker_PPG_07_Pom-Pom_06.png/revision/latest?cb=20230717183708)
Hm. I'm curious about the television, too. Penacony's devices have some special properties. I don't know if they can still persist beyond memoria-infused environments.
I just received a gift...
(During Achievement LuckEx)
(Tell them about the gift)
I just received a gift. It got sent to (The Radiant Feldspar/The Trailblaze's Stern/The Tatalov/The Soaring Clock Hand)
Aventurine sent it. This was inside
Oh, it's a model. That brand is renowned for making quality products. If I'm not mistaken, this is a limited edition.
(Trailblazer), open the windows! Are there figures of us inside?
This is a miniature of the Express. Looking at the exterior, I don't think it's designed to be opened.
I used to collect models back home. Based on my experience, if there are additional accessories, they are usually displayed separately.
Wow! Where did you get that? It's so pretty! I want one too. Shouldn't there be one for the conductor?
You'll have to ask @(Trailblazer) about that
Doesn't seem like it. There are only some other snacks and beverages in the package
Maybe your packages are still on the way... I only received this one
I don't have a package tracking number...
I didn't receive anything either. Looks like (Trailblazer) is the only one who got it.
I'll take the snacks if you don't want them!
We shouldn't give the conductor too much junk food. We'll be in trouble if they get the runs.
Jokes aside, this looks like it's specially prepared for (Trailblazer)
When we did the handover for (The Radiant Feldspar/The Trailblaze's Stern/The Tatalov/The Soaring Clock Hand) with The Family, we came to a consensus that the ownership of the ship should belong to the Express passenger who contributed the most to Penacony
In other words, (The Radiant Feldspar/The Trailblaze's Stern/The Tatalov/The Soaring Clock Hand) only has one owner right now, and that is (Trailblazer). This gift is just for you
Thanks! Don't mind if I do!
Ah? Then I'll gladly accept it!
Take it. It's what you deserve.
Whoa, really?
Huh? For real?
Hang on, I'm going to get a lottery ticket now. We'll share the winnings among us
Even if we win the grand prize, you're more than deserving of it!
We should give it to Pom-Pom instead.
I think... it'll be more suitable if we give this to Pom-Pom.
Pom-Pom is the conductor after all, and the conductor should be in charge of the Express.
Pom-Pom doesn't want it! It's yours. Pom-Pom is just happy to be with all you passengers.
Hehe. Keep it, (Trailblazer).
