Dialogue
Speak with Pearl
Mission DescriptionAm I... in Pearl's office?
It feels like I've just gone through something horrifying, like something was about to tear me to pieces.
Take a breath, and talk to your companions.
- Sequence 01Pearl explained that the place you fell into was the "torn scroll" peeled off from the "scroll painting" when Planarcadia returned to reality. Ashveil's shadows tasted the sins of the three Daybreak Warriors and declared the Dovebrook murder case closed. However, the odd part was that all three were Supplicants bearing flesh of the Abundance. Pearl suspected Fulwish was the mastermind behind this whole series of events and must be closely monitored.
- Pearl: We meet again, everyone.
- Pearl: Fortunately, (Trailblazer)'s lucky chip helped me locate you.
- Pearl: Please accept my sincerest apologies for not intervening in time and putting all of you in danger.
You were tracking me!
Thanks, but please don't gift me any more tracking devices.- Ashveil: Actually, she put one in my pocket too, but I auctioned it online as a souvenir. Thank goodness you kept yours, otherwise we'd be done for.
- Himeko: Madam Pearl, where exactly were we just now...?
- Pearl: The place where you fell is called a "torn scroll." It is a space that peeled from the "scroll painting" during Planarcadia's return to reality. These splintered spaces continuously rip at both reality and the World in Canvas.
- Pearl: The Department of Aberration Defense originally thought this kind of phenomenon had stabilized... but based on observation: During your encounter with the Daybreak Squadron, there was a sudden spike of disturbances from the "torn scroll." Unfortunately, the cause: unclear.
- Pearl: Therefore, I had to use the power of the Cornerstone to analyze the space, then mend the fissure with imagenesis in order to bring you out. The Department of Aberration Defense has initiated emergency protocols to reassure the public and handle the aftermath.
- Pearl: However, I wasn't able to directly observe your situation after you'd fallen into the "torn scroll." Would you be so kind as to share what happened there?
- Ashveil: We can close the New Herald of Death case. My "shadow" has devoured the guilty three and tasted their sins.
- Ashveil: They were responsible for the Synwish Syndicate massacre. Of that I'm certain.
- Pearl: Was Fulwish the mastermind?
- Ashveil: I couldn't find any solid proof of it, but it hardly matters now that the culprits have been executed.
- Pearl: Worry not. Based on the intel provided by you and Miss Kuchiba, I have deduced the following:
- Pearl: As a survivor of the tragedy of the "Bloodstained Games", Fulwish founded the "Research Society of Happy Smiles" charity organization.
- Pearl: The organization has since been providing an unapproved medical treatment named "Happiness Surgery" to its members, which neutralizes their physiological capacity to feel pain. The procedure drew many more followers as a result.
- Pearl: And the Daybreak Squadron, members of the Smiles Society, imitated the Herald of Death's modus operandi for their crimes, and challenged the Astral Express during the exhibition.
- Pearl: From the aforementioned facts, the predicted probability of Fulwish being the mastermind is... 92%.
- Kuchiba: If I may, Madam Pearl. Management in Planarcadia should be dictated by the chain of evidence rather than extrapolated probability.
- Pearl: I understand. I will observe the human laws and customs.
- Pearl: In any case, we have achieved our goal through Star Rail FEST: Luring the Supplicant with ill intent out of hiding.
The Daybreak Squadron has been defeated.
It's the end of the line for Fulwish.
That's right, but please get someone else on the job next time!- Pearl: You've all fought and worked hard. Please, allow me to apologize again.
- March 7th: Since Fulwish's exposed now, and we've defeated her Supplicant... shouldn't we hurry and arrest her as soon as possible?
- Ashveil: I'm afraid it's not that simple. We've defeated Fulwish's Supplicant, yes, however...
- Ashveil: All three Daybreak Warriors were Supplicants.
- Himeko: That can't be... The Supplicant should be the only one who wore the mask and participated in the games with the Phantasmoon's blessing.
- Ashveil: Those devoured by my "shadow" can no longer lie nor deceive. All three of them had worn the mask before.
- Himeko: If they were all Supplicants... that means it's still possible for Fulwish to intervene in the games.
- Ashveil: What's even more terrifying is, when the "shadow" devoured them, I caught a taste of something familiar...
- Ashveil: It was the taste of Abundance that I'd once devoured as a Galaxy Ranger...
- March 7th: ...Wuh?
They were transformed by the Abundance?
- Ashveil: Yes. I didn't think this world would go that far... but I was wrong.
Your shadow once ate the Abundance's flesh?
- Ashveil: That's something that... happened a long, long time ago.
- Ashveil: Living in seclusion dulls one's senses... I should've realized it earlier, darn it.
- Pearl: Assessing the risk involved in this procedure...
- Pearl: There is no point in beating yourself up over it. Therefore, the conclusion must be corrected: The Research Society's "Happiness Surgery" is a medical technology related to the Abundance, and not simply about relieving pain.
- Pearl: ...Unable to extrapolate.
- Himeko: General Yao Guang told us that she foresaw a great calamity upon Planarcadia. According to her divinations, Blade, the Stellaron Hunter, could be its catalyst.
- Pearl: So that's why she asked me for the authority to extradite Blade. Regardless, none of us had anticipated this: Planarcadia's calamity had already taken root, long before the arrival of the Stellaron Hunter.
Then, let's strike Fulwish where it hurts?
- Pearl: In the name of the IPC? The law? Or a challenge to a Supplicant?
- Pearl: These options imply three different strategies. Regardless of the approach, the respective timing and investment must be considered.
What does Fulwish really want?
- Himeko: Does she want revenge against the long-dead Herald of Death?... Or is she trying to erase the memories of that tragedy?
- Pearl: It's frivolous to speculate her motives. Unlike Intellitrons, humans may weave an intricate plan for a mad reason at any cost, yet execute it with impeccable rationality at every step. What's important is that she is stopped.
- Pearl: Thank you for your "surprise" intel, Mr. Ashveil. You have just saved many more lives.
- Pearl: Henceforth, the Department of Aberration Defense will place Fulwish and the members of the Research Society of Happy Smiles on a special watch list. Given Fulwish's control over media outlets, I recommend closer monitoring of her dissemination channels.
- Kuchiba: Understood. We will also implement pre-disaster measures at the Calamity-level standard per the Safety Response Protocol Against Aberrant Threats.
- Pearl: Fulwish is not working alone. For normal people to be able to get an Abundance Transmutation, that implies far more sinister supporters behind the scenes. These are enemies not to be easily contended with...
- Pearl: Therefore, as the Administrator, I beseech you all: Please, lend your aid and help Planarcadia through this crisis!
- Pearl: This has escalated beyond mere rivalry for the Aeonic game. Fulwish's conspiracy has crossed the line. This situation's a hundred times more dire than the Herald of Death incident fifteen years ago.
I won't allow something like that to happen.
I should have read the small print of this "vacation"...
I have Skott's score to settle with her.- Himeko: Please, Madam Pearl. This is my home world, and I won't allow the tragedy to repeat itself. Besides, there may be an even greater conspiracy behind all this... As a Nameless, it is my duty to see it through to the end.
- Ashveil: ...Hmph. Indeed, there are old scars and fresh wounds to settle. For the way she toys with life, and the taste of that flesh... Fulwish must be held accountable once and for all.
- Pearl: You have my eternal gratitude. I won't forget this bond from our shared trials. Now then...
- Pearl: I shall prepare an action plan as well as share relevant information with General Yao Guang. The Seed of Abundance planted by Fulwish must be uprooted and eradicated as soon as possible.
- (Unlock Achievement Lucky Chip)
- (Listen to Himeko and March 7th, optional)
- Himeko: Fulwish's partner.... Perhaps someone far more dangerous has already set their sights on this round of the Phantasmoon Games.
- March 7th: Oh no, they are definitely up to no good.
- Sequence 02Pearl believed that humanity's profound understanding of "negative feedback" was one of the wellsprings of artistic power. The Happiness Surgery obliterated humanity's perception of pain, thereby stripping away human complexity.
- (Talk to Pearl)
- Pearl: Is there something else I can help you with, (Trailblazer)?
The Smiles Society has been around for a while...
- Pearl: I understand. Your inquiry: How did they manage to operate for so many years unnoticed?
How are you unaware of what they've been doing?- Pearl: I had put them on a temporary watch list before, due to significant decreases in crime rates in certain regions.
- Pearl: But now, we finally know how they achieved such a miracle.
- Pearl: Personally speaking, I cannot fault the citizens who joined the Society, nor do I wish to fixate on the accountability of those who governed at the time.
- Pearl: After all, for the corporation, the Smiles Society is a tool for maintaining stability, and the members are simply following the human instinct to avoid suffering.
- Pearl: You've been to Penacony, (Trailblazer). You should know: There, (the/
The) Family's members lull guests to sleep with power of the Harmony and soothe their pain. From a human ethics point of view, it is well within people's rights to avert pain in moderation. - Pearl: Humans cannot turn off their innate "negative feedback" like Intellitrons do. I understand and deeply sympathize with that.
- Pearl: My assigned theme is "Analytical Art." But at the same time, I am fortunate to be appointed governor of a world.
- Pearl: The portrayal and sublimation of pain in human works of art shine among humanity's greatest treasures. Tragedy, elegy, and lost epics... Their soul-stirring power springs from a profound understanding of this "negative feedback."
- Pearl: This so-called "Happiness Surgery" does more than just obliterate people's perception of pain. It strips away human complexity, and turns what was dynamic and brilliant into a monotonous blotch.
- Pearl: To me, governing this world is like creating a painting. My vision is to maintain the diversity of lifeforms and preserve their potential for growth and change. The Research Society has disrespected my work.
- Pearl: Thus, my duty and theme have become one and the same: I will do all that I can to cleanse the misguided strokes of the Research Society from this land.
- Pearl: Thank you again for lending your aid, Nameless. I will begin extrapolation of our next steps now.
I want to go over things with everyone else.
- Pearl: Please, be my guest.
See you later, Madam Pearl.- Pearl: I hope you all get some proper rest before moving out again.
- Sequence 03Kuchiba said the Department of Aberration Defense would interrogate Cinderborne and dig up intel on the Smiles Society. As for dealing with Fulwish from here on out... that's all you, hero of the Express.
- (Talk to Kuchiba, optional)
- Kuchiba: Leaving now, (Trailblazer)? We're counting on you, hero of the Express.
You look fairly relaxed about it all.
- Kuchiba: Because it's just another Phantasmoon Games for me. Check the records in the Ministry, and you'll see. Save the mythological times, they always end up in a huge mess, without fail.
- Kuchiba: Maybe that's precisely why Aha designed it this way, so THEY can watch humanity stumble over arbitrary obstacles we impose on ourselves and others. Otherwise, THEY'd probably die from the boredom of an orderly universe.
How will you deal with Cinderborne?
- Kuchiba: Maybe interrogate him for a few days. Get a strong light, render him unable to eat or sleep well, and he will probably spill everything he knows about the Smiles Society.
- Kuchiba: And once we've picked his brain, we'll let him go.
I should go, Miss Kuchiba.- Kuchiba: It's almost time. I should get back to work too.
- (Subsequent interactions)
- Kuchiba: It's almost time. I should get back to work too.
- Sequence 04Cinderborne couldn't believe that his companions were the culprits behind the bloodshed, and Fulwish was secretly plotting something terrible. Cinderborne thanked you for your words of comfort, musing that he had thought of himself as a hero, but in the end, he was just a mere actor.
- (Talk to Cinderborne, optional)
- Cinderborne: ...So it's true, the captain and the rest really did kill all those people from the Synwish Syndicate. Miss Fulwish is also plotting something terrible...
- Cinderborne: This is absurd. It's been fifteen years since my life turned into a montage of nightmarish amalgams... and it's still going.
You need to rest.
Let me handle the rest.- Cinderborne: Thank you, (Trailblazer). Mr. Ashveil is right. This is... not the same as playing the hero on a stage.
- Cinderborne: In the end I... I'm just an actor.
- (Subsequent interactions)
- Cinderborne: Thank you, (Trailblazer). Mr. Ashveil is right. This is... not the same as playing the hero on a stage.
- Cinderborne: In the end I... I'm just an actor.
- Sequence 05Ashveil apologized for stealing your spotlight at the exhibition and invited you to join forces in hunting down Fulwish. Ashveil recognized that you had what it took to become a Galaxy Ranger, but also hoped you would never need to walk the path of Rangers.
- (Talk to Ashveil, optional)
- Ashveil: Terribly sorry, Nameless. It was your exhibition and your enemies, and there I was, stealing your spotlight.
- Ashveil: Curious. I wonder how much Wishpower my appearance this time accumulates for the mask...
You don't sound sorry at all.
I'll remember this.
Fine. You can have this one for free.- Ashveil: Oh, don't be like that. You can tell them that I'm Welt. We already look similar enough. Who knows? Maybe that'll redirect some Wishpower toward your "account" instead?
Have you had dealings with Xianzhou before?
- Ashveil: We fought side by side in the past, and I know a few faces. But as they say, the honeymoon phase never lasts.
- Ashveil: I heard some of theirs were still looking for me before I went into my last cryosleep. Ahem... I'm counting on you to keep this a secret.
Why are you going incognito?
- Ashveil: Some people want the head on my shoulders, while others want the shadow in my arm.
- Ashveil: I'm old, and I just want some peace and quiet. That's all there is to it.
Will you continue participating in the Phantasmoon Games?- Ashveil: What, itching to get rid of me already? You're not that hasty, are you?
- Ashveil: An even greater prey just joined the game. Sure, she could be small fry by your standards, but in terms of viciousness, she might surprise you yet.
- Ashveil: Before the Supplicants go their separate ways, Fulwish is definitely a good hunting target for us to align our goals.
I will defeat Fulwish.
Don't steal my spotlight this time.
I will avenge Skott.- Ashveil: Such confidence... Heh, can't help but smile at that.
- Ashveil: For some reason, you really remind me of a young man named Tiernan. You Nameless bunch just love jumping headfirst into fire pits, don't you?
- Ashveil: Well, given your skills, would you be interested in joining the Galaxy Rangers if you're still alive by the time the Phantasmoon Games conclude?
I will always be a part of the Astral Express.
- Ashveil: Good answer. I apologize for my presumptuousness. After all, becoming a Ranger comes with loss, suffering, and vengeance.
I thought you'd retired?
- Ashveil: Good question. I guess old habits die hard when I see someone with potential.
- Ashveil: Being a Ranger holds little appeal, really. It is a path of loss, suffering, and vengeance.
I'd rather follow Tiernan's example.
- (Trailblazer): Tiernan is also a senior member of the Express that I respect. I will follow in his footsteps.
- Ashveil: Forgive me for being presumptuous. Being a Ranger holds little appeal, really. It is a path of loss, suffering, and vengeance.
- Ashveil: In that case, I will take back my words. Young Nameless, may you never have to tread the path of a Ranger.
- (Subsequent interactions)
- Ashveil: Before the Supplicants go their separate ways, Fulwish is definitely a good hunting target for us to align our goals.
Leave Pearl's office
Step DescriptionMore and more factions are getting dragged into the Phantasmoon Games. Beyond the Fools and the IPC, Fulwish and her Smiles Society have now brought the Abundance into Planarcadia, plunging the situation into deeper complexity and peril.
Just as expected, vacations only last for the first little bit of any journey.
Before pushing on, might as well hit the shops and take a breather.
- (Talk to Pearl again, optional)
- Pearl: I hope you all get some proper rest before moving out again.

Tooltip for 18px|link=ⓘ Sequence 06Pearl secretly assisted Ashveil in his investigation to confirm her suspicions about the Smiles Society. Pearl promised that if they won the Phantasmoon Games, she would grant his wish: "To let a Galaxy Ranger die peacefully in his bed."- (Go to mission location)
- Ashveil: You know, I'm not here to be an ornament.
- Pearl: Assessment: You have something to ask me, Mr. Ashveil.
- Ashveil: Lately, I've been on an extremely lucky streak. Be it Fulwish or Magnus, the leads practically gained sentience and came to me one by one.
- Pearl: Luck is also an important part of one's toolkit. Wouldn't you agree?
- Ashveil: I'm beginning to think you're the one behind it all. You tasked me to investigate the Society and protect the Astral Express, which all led to me unleashing my shadow on those people... just so you can confirm your hypothesis.
- Ashveil: ...You had everything planned out since the beginning, hadn't you?
- Pearl: If I answer "Yes," would it wound your ego?
- Ashveil: ...Perhaps.
- Pearl: Yes. I paved the way for your investigation, leading you straight to the suspects.
- Pearl: Through you, I confirmed my suspicions about the Research Society. However, the question of Abundance Transformation remains a thorny issue for me.
- Pearl: Fortunately, there's a ranger who specializes in confronting such abominations, having lived in long seclusion within Planarcadia.
- Ashveil: Hmph...
- Ashveil: But you know the "shadow" sealed inside my arm... can be very dangerous.
- Ashveil: Simply removing the nail can cause it to stir and resonate with the fragment and fissure.
- Ashveil: Had I not kept it under control at that time, the fight would have ended with all of us buried in that bottomless abyss. Is that part of your plans too, Pearl?
- Pearl: Humans fear the worst, but to the Intellitrons, such fears are merely irrational deterrents.
- Pearl: Wasn't the Mask of Elation I gave you enough to pin down the "shadow"?
- Pearl: That Gift you found through the guidance of the Express Navigator, "Starseer", Isee.
- Pearl: That very shadow that devoured the Swarm and Lord Ravager Zulo ten Amber Eras ago.
- Pearl: That very shadow that devoured Shuhu, the Emanator of Abundance, hundreds of years ago.
- Ashveil: You won the bet. You sure know a lot about this.
- Pearl: Please allow me to correct you. My ethical parameters prohibit engagement in probabilistic gambits. Accordingly, I operate by acquiring sufficient information to ensure zero margin for error.
- Pearl: Then again, you are the species that brought "art" into existence as a form of expression. That seed of creation exists even in the most ignorant of humans' minds, and for that, I love and admire you.
- Pearl: Whether you believe or not, I will honor our initial agreement, Mr. La Mancha. At the moment of victory in the Phantasmoon Games, I will free you from all sufferings and fulfill your wish—
- Pearl: "To let a Galaxy Ranger die peacefully in his bed."
- Ashveil: In that case, I will continue to fight for you, my lady.
- Ashveil: Oh, right.
- Ashveil: You mentioned several times wanting to replicate the works of Graphia. I don't know much about art...
- Ashveil: But I was considering that, despite the lack of artistic quality in your strokes when sealing those fissures today, to the people of this world...
- Ashveil: Your creation is just as important as the works of Graphia. Not a single innocent soul was lost on this day because of your protection.
- Ashveil: Looking back to the ancestral painter of the Cindearth Age, do you truly think she cared about the artistic value of each stroke when she created World in Canvas?
- Pearl: ...
- Ashveil: Tsk, but what do I know... These are just crude observations from an amateur, so pay them no mind. I'll be on my way!
- Sequence 07Silver Wolf met with Ashveil and called in a favor, asking him to lend the Stellaron Hunters a hand for old times' sake. Blade reunited with Ashveil after a long separation. They addressed each other as "Yingxing" and "La Mancha."
- Moments later, in some corner of the city...
- Silver Wolf: We meet again, Ashen Detective.
- Silver Wolf: It's hard to believe that I came back for you, especially after learning that you wanted to sell me out to Pearl...
- Ashveil: Gotta thanks nature's gift. The 6.1 billion credits reward has appeared again.
- Silver Wolf: Fortunately, I bypassed you and struck a deal with that Intellitron instead. Regrettably, my current bounty stands at zero.
- Silver Wolf: Do you always turn your customers over to the police? How impressively short-sighted. No wonder your clientele is so small.
- Ashveil: Speaking of short-sightedness, no one rivals the Stellaron Hunters, a.k.a. Destiny's Slaves, isn't it? You are all fated to march toward the Finality, and nothing can stop you.
- Silver Wolf: On the contrary, there are many paths for us, as long as that person can see.
- Ashveil: In other words, he can't see the trajectory of your destiny in this world during this mission?
- Silver Wolf: Take a guess.
- Ashveil: I've heard what befell Amphoreus. The war among the Aeons is now inevitable... Whether it's the IPC or the Express, they are fighting for an uncertain future.
- Ashveil: And in the world where the Elation is the Center of Attention, there will eventually be more than one Aeon interfering. Even a Destiny's Slave would not be able to see the path ahead.
- Silver Wolf: Keep guessing. We're getting pretty close.
- Ashveil: Enough of your games. I'd say it's not too late to rename the planet Adlivun.
- Silver Wolf: It's still too early to despair, old man. I came prepared... but I could use a helping hand.
- Ashveil: 30 million credits. Pay or die.
- Silver Wolf: Come on, give your friend a discount, will you? Say... zero credits?
- Ashveil: I ain't your friend.
- Silver Wolf: I meant him.
- Ashveil: ...
- Ashveil: It's been a while, Yingxing.
- Blade: It's been too long, Mr. La Mancha.
- Sequence 08Yao Guang arrived at the Phantasmoon Courtyard and recognized its ancient tree as an Ambrosial Arbor. Evanescia appeared, introducing herself as the arbitrator presiding over the outcomes of the Phantasmoon Games. Above her head, Yao Guang observed no Weal or Woe fortunes.
- Yao Guang: ...I knew it. There must be an explanation for the unusual fate of this world.
- Yao Guang: Though I lost sight of the sparrow, I discovered a mysterious tree. I've finally found the heart of the Phantasmoon Games, thanks to this little birdie.
- Yao Guang: (Mr. Sunday, do you sense me?)
- Yao Guang: There's no reaction from the bird. What's wrong with it?
- Yao Guang: Hello? Is anyone there? Can I get somebody here?
- Resonance All Around: No one's here... No one—
- Yao Guang: That's a lie. I saw a pretty girl hiding right here through the bird's eyes. Who are you?
- Resonance All Around: That's none of your business... None of your business...
- Yao Guang: If that's how it's going to be, then I'm done playing nice here.
- Yao Guang: If my eyes weren't playing tricks on me, the ancient tree here must be the Ambrosial Arbor of Abundance, yes?
- Yao Guang: Little girl, are you going to keep playing hide-and-seek, or will you come out and have a proper conversation with me?
- Evanescia: The Department of Aberration Defense often comes here to record game progress, and now my movements have been exposed to complete outsiders... I suppose it's time to leave.
- Evanescia: You sound unpleasant to talk to, but since you have eyes keen enough to tell what I am at a glance, I'll have a short chat with you.
- Evanescia: I will answer three questions, so ask away. Once you have your answers, I'm going to show you the door.
- Yao Guang: I wanted to question why the Joyseeker would permit the Ambrosial Arbor of Abundance to take root in a world they had blessed, but given their carefree nature, there was probably never any restriction to begin with.
- Yao Guang: On my second question, are you a Faekind native to Ahatopia, or are you... one of the long-life species shaped by the Ambrosial Arbor?
- Evanescia: Aren't you good at divination? Can you help me take a look whether the slip on my head says weal or woe?
- Yao Guang: There's nothing on your head except your ears.
- Evanescia: And that itself is the answer.
- Evanescia: I am the arbitrator who determines the outcome of the Phantasmoon Games. I am the raging waves of joy and the living pulse of this world.
- Evanescia: Diviner of the Xianzhou, the weal and woe you behold are but a single petal fallen from my hand. It blooms with the morning and withers by evening, reducing to dust in a fleeting moment. My true form is the Panarch Elwood, the embodiment of "instant" and "eternity."
- Yao Guang: Interesting. Took you quite some time to come up with those words, huh?
- Evanescia: The one who created me did say most people wouldn't believe me. Tch, turns out THEY were right...
- Yao Guang: I believe you. I feel the same way, for many do not trust the words of a diviner. Besides, no weal or woe has befallen you, which means your fate cannot be determined like that of ordinary mortals. You're not the first one I've met with this condition since my arrival here.
- Evanescia: You're left with one question.
- Yao Guang: Since you admit to being an abomination of Abundance... Shouldn't you explain the fate of this world's residents...?
- Yao Guang: ...Unless they are your doing? If your answer fails to convince me...
- Yao Guang: It may be too late by the time I summon the Lux Arrow from the sky with the Reignbow.
- Evanescia: Chill out! You shouldn't make jokes like this.
- Evanescia: I'm not as skilled at divination as you are. When you suddenly speak of the great weal or woe and interrogate me, I get confused too...
- Evanescia: After all, isn't every rule and every variable of the Phantasmoon Games dictated by the impulse of some god?
- Evanescia: As for the brewing storm... let's settle down and discuss...
- Evanescia: Whether the turmoil once again is the result of the Laughter's mischief?
- Sequence 09Himeko believed you must inform your companions of this intel as soon as possible to stop Fulwish from winning the Phantasmoon Games. During a brief moment of peace, March 7th suggested the two of you take a stroll through the streets.
- March 7th: This entire day has felt... unreal.
- March 7th: We had situations lined up one after another, and a growing crisis on our hands.
- Himeko: The Research Society is insane to meddle with the power of Abundance. There's no telling how many have already undergone the Happiness Surgery...
- Himeko: Fulwish witnessed the tragedy caused by the Herald of Death fifteen years ago, and now she herself has assumed that dreadful mantle.
- Himeko: We have to relay this information to Dan Heng, Sunday, and General Yao Guang as soon as possible.
Does Fulwish really think she could win?
Fulwish is declaring war against this world.- Himeko: Fulwish is definitely aware of the enemies she's facing.
- Himeko: That is why we must win an audience with Aha. At the very least, we need to stop Fulwish from winning the game.
- March 7th: Yeah. The thought of the Research Society of Happy Smiles going through with their plan gives me the chills...
- Himeko: It's been a long day, and all of you must be very tired. Take this chance to get some proper rest. I'll go meet Welt back on the Express. March, (Trailblazer), what about you?
- March 7th: The best way to recharge is to waste time, so I'm staying outside for some fresh air.
- (Trailblazer): Sounds good. I was thinking of heading to the streets for a walk.
Take a stroll through the streets
- (Talk to March 7th, optional)
- March 7th: Hey, I'm too tired to join in the fun. Go ahead if you want to play. I'll wait here for you.
- Bustling Crowd: No, I heard it... You must have misheard...
- Bustling Crowd: I wasn't kidding. The moon was laughing... I'm just here to join the fun... I bet you misheard it...
- (Trailblazer): What's happening?
- (While approaching the mission location)
- Confused Onlooker: What happened?
- Baffled Onlooker: Look at the moon in the sky... Something is definitely wrong with it!
- Phantasmoon: Hey there! All the smarties and dummies, children and adults, Fools and entertainers, can you all hear me?
- (Go to mission location)
