Mission DescriptionEveryone was fighting over the mask during the Phantasmoon Games, but General Yao Guang just gave it away. Was that just a whim, or is she planning something?
- Sequence 01Sunday met with Yao Guang, wanting to know why she refused to don the mask and enter the fray herself. Yao Guang asked Sunday to use the mask-enhanced "tuning" ability and experience her answer firsthand.
- Meanwhile, somewhere in Duomension City...
- Yao Guang: Your thoughts tell me that you still have doubts about me.
- Yao Guang: Did you ask to meet here so I could clear up some of your doubts?
- Sunday: ...Greetings, Lady Yao Guang.
- Yao Guang: Being able to hear others' thoughts anytime... this "tuning" ability sure comes in handy.
- Sunday: Compared to the Seer Strategist's ability to come and go as she pleases, this is nothing but a parlor trick.
- Sunday: I've heard that Xianzhou folks are big on etiquette. Yet here I am, and you're still playing hide-and-seek. General, isn't that a bit discourteous?
- Yao Guang: Sorry... I have this old problem of suddenly disappearing. It's really something beyond my control.
- Yao Guang: As for the reason, I'm afraid I can't disclose it. Please forgive my rudeness.
- Yao Guang: Or, if you're truly that curious, why not use your "tuning" and find out?
- Sunday: You know I won't do that.
- Sunday: Besides, I couldn't even if I wanted to right now.
- Yao Guang: Couldn't?
- Sunday: At this moment, the crowd's thoughts are crashing over me like a tidal wave.
- Sunday: I can't block out all this mental noise. Just keeping my own thoughts from getting tangled up in everyone else's is hard enough.
- Yao Guang: I see. So that's why, when you were speaking with Miss Himeko earlier, I accidentally intruded on your "private conversation."
- Sunday: My "tuning" is spiraling out of control. This mask... is distorting my abilities.
- Yao Guang: ...I see it differently. The loss of control is temporary. That mask is amplifying your power.
- Sunday: How is this possible? This "tuning" power is bestowed by the Harmony. How could the Elation meddle with THEIR authority?
- Yao Guang: Perhaps the Elation simply poured more "fuel" into this divine authority?
- Yao Guang: In my humble opinion, this mask binds the Supplicant to all beings of Planarcadia, drawing strength from those who share the same Path here for your use.
- Yao Guang: That's why you're hearing others' thoughts surge toward you like a tide... Your "tuning" is steadily expanding, and you've become the center of this melody.
- Sunday: You sure gave me quite the "gift", general.
- Sunday: But why would such a precious gift be placed on my face...? I need an honest answer.
- Yao Guang: You want to know the reason? Didn't I explain it already?
- Sunday: Your reasons about me make sense, but what I really want is your answer... about yourself.
- Sunday: General of the Yuque who sees into the future... why not wear the mask yourself and personally step into the fray with its power?
- Yao Guang: Words can deceive, but only "tuning" lays the truth bare.
- Yao Guang: Mr. Sunday, why not use your enhanced "tuning" to feel the weight of that answer for yourself?
Tooltip for 18px|link=ⓘ Sequence 02Yao Guang's bestowed Spiritus was Kālacakra Skyplume, granting her the Eye of Īśvara to read the flow of fortune. Since arriving in Planarcadia, she had seen every passerby marked by ominous signs, and knew a world-ending catastrophe is approaching. If the mask was worn, Yao Guang's divinations would permeate into this realm, sealing the fate of all living beings in the arcadia within a death trap. Fortunately, for now, there still remained a glimmer of hope.- Sunday: Well then... pardon my intrusion, Lady Yao Guang.
- Yao Guang: Ah... so this bird on my shoulder is the manifestation of the "tuning's" resonance?
- Sunday: Exactly. And these symbols I see floating above people's heads...
- Sunday: ...Would be the "Weal and Woe Signs" you mentioned, general?
- Yao Guang: That's right. To become an Arbiter-General, one must undergo three ceremonies: the "Rainbow Ordainment," the "Reignbow's Gaze," and the "Bestowal of Spiritus." Only then can one truly take up the mantle and live up to the title.
- Yao Guang: When I was appointed as the Yuque's general, I was bestowed with the Reignbow Spiritus called "Kālacakra Skyplume," which represents the vision of the Hunt among the seven aspects of the Reignbow: a symbol of foresight, verdict, and self-discipline.
- Yao Guang: Thanks to that, I gained the "Eye of Īśvara," which allows me to read the flow of destiny.
- Yao Guang: Since the day I arrived on this world, every person I've seen bore a crimson "Woe Sign" above their head without exception. Within days at most, a catastrophic disaster will befall this place.
- Sunday: So, that red glow rising from the edge of the city is...?
- Yao Guang: The blazing light formed by the convergence of all those "Woe Signs" in Planarcadia.
- Sunday: In that case, general, it's all the more reason for you to wear the mask. Once your sight into the future is strengthened, you won't need to fear the "deathly omen" in your readings.
- Yao Guang: Mr. Sunday, have you heard the diviners' iron law? "Never divine the same matter twice"?
- Sunday: In Penacony, diviners also warn clients beforehand: You can't ask for another spread just because you dislike the result. There's a reason for that, isn't there?
- Yao Guang: Divining the future is, in essence, a form of observation and calculation. It's an interference with the future. Each reading drives the murky future toward a definite outcome, a collapsed quantum state, even if that outcome isn't to one's liking.
- Yao Guang: To be honest, when I set out for Planarcadia, I had fully intended to personally participate in the Phantasmoon Games.
- Yao Guang: But the moment I laid hands on the mask, I understood the consequences of wearing it. Once this miraculous item is donned, the "Eye of Īśvara" would transcend mere sight and permeate throughout this realm. The Kālacakra Skyplume would predict the future of all beings at tens of billions of instances per second.
- Sunday: ...You're saying that, simply by your observation, our future would become fixed?
- Yao Guang: Indeed, just like how the Wisdomwalker expounded the way of destiny, anchoring the fated moments.
- Yao Guang: If I wore the mask, I would become the Nous of Planarcadia, and I would "personally anchor" a destiny that drives us all into a bottomless darkness. We will become locked in a dead end with not a shred of hope for salvation.
- Yao Guang: Close one. I passed the trial. There's still a sliver of hope in this round.
- Sequence 03Having foreseen the fall of an Arbiter-General, Sunday was curious as to what still motivates Yao Guang to save Planarcadia. Yao Guang believed fortune and misfortune were intertwined, that this was the perfect place to gamble against the gods.
- Sunday: ...Now that makes me even more curious.
- Sunday: Pardon my bluntness, but the fate of billions in Planarcadia never had much to do with you, General. Your encounter with the Express and the IPC was merely a chance meeting.
- Sunday: You are a messenger of the Xianzhou. Since you foresaw the omen — that "an Arbiter General will fall here" — you could have boarded your ship and left at any time...
- Sunday: Why choose to stay and help us? To help this world break free of this deathtrap?
- Yao Guang: Because... I am guided by great compassion. Every life is precious beyond measure...
- Yao Guang: Such diplomatic pleasantries won't fool the former master of Penacony like yourself, would they?
- Yao Guang: Then, how about this reason? The Astral Express has distinguished itself time and again against the Destruction, and bears an irreplaceable duty for the future. I can't just sit idly and watch you face annihilation...
- Sunday: ...
- Yao Guang: *sigh* Give me a break. I really am terrible at all this diplomatic talk.
- Yao Guang: Mr. Sunday, what makes you think that everything I've done is just to save Planarcadia?
- Sunday: What?
- Yao Guang: "Weal is where Woe lurks. Woe is where Weal leans." The good fortune of some often births the ill fate of others, and a dead end for someone may hide an opportunity for another.
- Yao Guang: This treacherous land where life and death turn again and again, where fortune flips to misfortune, is, in my eyes, the perfect board for a game of wits.
- Sunday: A game with whom?
- Yao Guang: ...With the gods.
- Yao Guang: Mr. Sunday, have you heard of the "Battle of the Fanghu" thirty years ago?
- Sunday: I've heard rumors of that war, but not the details. General, are you suggesting Planarcadia is now facing dangers just as perilous as the Xianzhou Fanghu was back then?
- Yao Guang: You got that right.
- Tooltip for 18px|link=ⓘ Sequence 04During the Battle of the Fanghu, Yao Guang witnessed countless soldiers and a living planet struck down by The Hunt's Lux Arrow. She realized that even something as mighty as an Aeon could be swayed by human will.
- Yao Guang: Thirty years ago, the Abundance Axis broke our lines and invaded the Fanghu homeland. The abominations awakened a living demonic star, intending to sink the Xianzhou Fanghu.
- Yao Guang: With no other options, the Alliance staked everything on my junior soror's plan... to operate the astronomical observation device, the Cloudpeer Telescope, to signal the Reignbow for aid, using THEIR Lux Arrow to strike down the demon star.
- Yao Guang: Whoever operated the Cloudpeer Telescope would not return. It was to be a one-way trip.
- Sunday: So your junior soror...?
- Yao Guang: You guessed wrong. The one who offered his life was my master, who taught me divination. It was Master Jingtian, then the Yuque's Master Diviner, and the only high official authorized to operate that device. He accepted his fate and ventured to the Fanghu.
- Yao Guang: Going with him into certain death were Yueyu, the previous Yaoqing General who guarded the Cloudpeer Telescope, and the Verdant Knights under her command.
- Yao Guang: I was responsible for assessing the entire plan's feasibility and mending its gaps. I activated the Deca-Light Reflection Barrier, calculating and casting lots again and again.
- Yao Guang: I watched as the "starlight" representing countless possibilities flickered within the reflections — faint, wavering — until the vast shadow of a pondering god swallowed them whole, and they vanished into the abyssal dark at the edges of the universe.
- Yao Guang: In that moment, I understood that I had cemented my master and countless soldiers into an inescapable doom. When the Lux Arrow fell, they would perish along with the enemy and that demonic star... all reduced to ashes.
- Sunday: You sacrificed so many comrades just to ensure the enemy's fall?
- Yao Guang: To Penaconians, that must seem incredibly cruel, right?
- Sunday: ...As someone born in an era of peace, I have no right to judge. Perhaps the founders of Penacony could understand the necessity.
- Yao Guang: Cruel or not, it was my duty. And so I had to witness, and remember their sacrifice.
- Yao Guang: When I saw the Lux Arrow descend, I realized the Xianzhou Alliance had actually directed an Aeon's actions.
- Yao Guang: This realization illuminated the mission of my remaining years. In this cold, merciless cosmos, when you're trapped in despair, an Aeon's intervention is often the only hope.
- Yao Guang: We are not ants, helpless beneath the celestial spheres as we simply watch the stars turn. Instead, THEIR trails were forged by us, who offered up a portion of our insignificant destiny.
- Yao Guang: Even beings as mighty as the Aeons can be pulled by our will!
- Sequence 05Yao Guang wanted to draw the Elation into her hexagram and shake out a Great Weal for the cosmos's future: an answer beyond the Finality. And at Graphia Academy, the arcadia's first catastrophe was about to erupt.
- Sunday: ...Is this what you want to do in Planarcadia?
- Yao Guang: Indeed. I will seize those "starlights of possibility" I once buried with my own hands. Just like the Battle of the Fanghu thirty years ago: an Arbiter-General will fall, and an Aeon will descend.
- Yao Guang: I will forge the destined death into wagers and game pieces, and invite the god who delights in meddling with destiny to sit at my table.
- Yao Guang: This time, I will invite THEM into my calculations... to draw a Great Weal for the cosmos's future!
- Yao Guang: Mr. Sunday, surely you can understand this mad idea of mine, having once reached the divine throne of Order yourself?
- Sunday: Our common ground goes far beyond "mad ideas."
- Sunday: But I was reviving a god who already lay dead and buried in the infinite dark. General... how can you be sure that the most capricious Aeon would be led by your fancy?
- Yao Guang: Have you heard this myth about the Elation?
- Yao Guang: They say Aha once climbed to the highest bough of the Tree of Existence. Gazing out, THEY saw stars turning coldly like machines, and the meaning of everything yielded to nihility... Only the cry of a newborn made THEM burst into laughter.
- Yao Guang: Mr. Sunday, answer me: why did Aha laugh?
- Sunday: ...
- Sunday: I think it's because THEY finally saw an audience arrive at this long-empty stage we call the universe.
- Yao Guang: Well said! You're way funnier than you look!
- Yao Guang: As divination teaches: "Heaven creates forty-nine paths. Humans find the one unseen." WE are the greatest variable this blind, mindless universe can produce.
- Yao Guang: The universe and the gods set riddles for us, and we shall give THEM a surprise... An answer beyond the Finality.
- Yao Guang: Ah, looks like it's about time...
- Sunday: Don't tell me you're disappearing without a goodbye again, general?
- Yao Guang: No. This time, we will set our eyes on the same place and carve a sliver of possibility out of destiny with our own "sight."
- Sunday: Could you be talking about... the school where Himeko and the others went?
- Yao Guang: Yes. The crimson light there pierces the sky today, marking it as a locus of Woe. The arcadia's first calamity will erupt there.
- Sunday: I should've asked you to give them a few "secret strategies" before they left...
- Yao Guang: Forget it. The stuff in those pouches is all harmless banter anyway... We should let them off the hook.
Go to Graphia Academy and continue the adventure
- Step DescriptionHimeko says we need to stop SparxiCon by using water from Dovebrook in the "Worldbreaker Waves" painting to clear Sparxie's memetic infection.
Better find that imagenated landscape mural fast before we all turn into monkeys... or worse, Sparxie!
- Tooltip for 18px|link=ⓘ Sequence 06According to news reports, two more Supplicants had appeared, their masks shaped like a raccoon and a crow. At Graphia Academy, the SparxiCon announced by Sparxie was about to begin.
- Poofy: Hello everyone, welcome back to Fulwish TV's special news segment, Arcadian Morning Report! I'm your host, Poofy!
- Snowie: Hi everyone, I'm your host, Snowie!
- Poofy: It's been three hours since our first Supplicant, Miss Sparxie, announced her entry into the Phantasmoon Games. The performance she announced to all her fans, SparxiCon, is also about to begin!
- Snowie: How curious! Planarcadia's day–night cycle was completely scrambled in ancient times! Graphia Academy's location just happens to be bathed in light...
- Snowie: So, in broad daylight, what kind of fireworks show does Miss Sparxie have in store for us?
- Poofy: Who knows? Maybe she'll blow the school sky-high in a blaze of fireworks? After all, at the Phantasmoon Games fifteen years ago, Graphia Academy also...
- Snowie: Hey, senior, you can't joke about that! Dear viewers, our apologies! Let's move on to news about other Supplicants.
- Poofy: According to the Department of Aberration Defense's staff, during a routine inspection of the Phantasmoon Courtyard, two additional mask shapes manifested on the altar.
- Snowie: In other words, two more Supplicants have appeared!
- Poofy: Although none of them have publicly announced entry into the games yet, the altar's masks mean someone, somewhere, has quietly donned the "Masks of Elation."
- Poofy: As for the two masks, Department of Aberration Defense staff describe one as a raccoon and the other as some kind of bird...
- Snowie: A raccoon mask, huh... Hard not to think of the Astral Express that just arrived in Planarcadia.
- Snowie: Will the Nameless from the Astral Express join the Phantasmoon Games? I hear they've even invited them to SparxiCon as special guests!
- Poofy: Hmm! Will it be a miraculous show formed out of the collaboration between Supplicants, or a head-to-head showcase between two famed contenders?
- Snowie: Countless streamers are already live, broadcasting the scene at the venue, let's cut to the feed now...
- Sequence 07You, Himeko, and Sparkle arrived at Graphia Academy and use the Banana memetic virus to slow down the Sparxification. You needed to find the imagenated landscape mural hidden by Sparxie and to use the "waves" to cleanse the entire academy.
- "Sparxified" Lady: Ah! Look, it's the Nameless from the Astral Express!
- Broadcast: One girl, a thousand faces! A thousand faces, one girl! Welcome to the SparxiCon live broadcast!
- Broadcast: Dear lovely fans, please be patient ♥! SparxiCon is about to begin!
- Sparkle: This horror stream is about to end. Time for you all to log off.
- "Sparxified" Lady: That woman has Miss Sparxie's face! What a pathetic imitation!
- Sparkle: What? My face is the original!
- "Sparxified" Man: Miss Sparxie's face alone is the greatest masterpiece in the world!
- "Sparxified" Man: Everyone should listen to her sweet voice and gaze upon her adorable face!
- "Sparxified" Lady: We shall become Miss Sparxie!
- "Sparxified" Man: We offer everything to Miss Sparxie~!
- "Sparxified" Men and Women: Sparxicle! Sparxicle! Sparxicle!
- Sparkle: Ugh... my eyes! I've seen something cursed!
- Himeko: The memetic virus spread among people is way worse than we imagined. There are walking Sparxie-shrooms growing on the ground... I bet we'll all end up with Sparxie... or rather, Sparkle faces before we can get very far.
Take out the memetic banana.- Sparkle: Are we really using that? If we don't take down that impostor before the virus hits, we'll all be monkeys in the jungle.
- Himeko: Become a fake of a fake, or a carefree monkey. Your call.
- Sparkle: On second thought... being assimilated by an impostor doesn't sound that bad...
- Himeko: Enough talk. Eyes on the banana.
- Sparkle: Ow! ...Bana! Ma'am, a little warning before you stab someone with a banana, please!
- (Trailblazer): Come on! Bana!
- Himeko: Remember the plan we made at the tavern?
- Sparkle: Yes bana! ...I mean, we dig out the imagenated painting Sparxie hid, then use "waves" to give Graphia Academy a good banana-over... I mean, wash-over!
- Sparkle: But... what if that impostor figures it out?
- Himeko: Just try to keep her busy and buy us some time.
- Sparkle: Let's do it!
- (Obtain Achievement Fruit of the Gods)
Go to the Atrium to find "Worldbreaker Waves"
- Sequence 08Sparxie appeared, claiming Sparkle was the old mask she cast aside. Sparkle charged forward and grappled with Sparxie, buying you and Himeko time to search for the imagenated landscape mural.
- (Go to mission target)
- Sparxie: Yoohoooo! Welcome, dear guests! I've been waiting so long my phone's about to die!
- Sparkle: Drop the act, my dear mask. I shouldn't have called you an "impostor." That was harsh of me.
- Sparkle: Come back to mama's arms. It's not too late. If the Astral Express crew gets involved, they won't be pulling any punches.
- Sparkle: Of course, I get it. Surrendering now would ruin the stage you so carefully set. Total buzzkill, right?
- Sparxie: Pfft, hahaha... So you still don't get it!
- Sparxie: "The worst thing an actor should do is be tied down to one type of role."
- Sparxie: Standing before you, the loyal friend who's been by your side all along, the Masked Fool who never played any tricks...
- Sparxie: SHE is actually the old mask I have shed.
- What did you just say!?
- YOU are the real Sparkle!?
- Sparxie: Haven't I been telling you all this time? She's just an OLD MODEL.
- Himeko: No wonder the light orb in the tavern didn't react to Sparkle.
- Sparkle: ...For real!? That explanation is... kinda awesome!
- Sparxie: Look at those expressions on your faces! This is the best opening act for SparxiCon ever!
- Sparxie: I shed that old mask, and with it, the weak, timid, all-too-human me.
- Sparxie: This new me will break free from all shackles, gather my fans' Wishpower, and stride onto the stage of the Phantasmoon Games.
- Sparxie: In return for the Wishpower offered by everyone in the arcadia, every Supplicant must show them "what elation truly means." We will demonstrate the Elation we desire!
- By turning everyone into you?
- How is this even remotely elating?
- Sparxie: There's no coercion involved anywhere in this. It's a simple "Yes" or "No," like scrolling to the bottom of the Terms of Service.
- Sparxie: Want attention? Talent? Quick cash? Universal praise? Download the "Sparxie Virus"! Ta-da. Click "Confirm," and you're set.
- Sparxie: Isn't that exactly what they crave? Elation in three minutes flat?
- Sparxie: Nameless, you're doomed to lose. You can't stop what people desire...
- Himeko: We can't stop their desire, but in this stream, we'll show this arcadia world another possibility.
- Sparxie: What did you just say?
- Himeko: We'll show everyone watching the livestream the Elation of the Astral Express.
- I'm not a guest. I'm a Supplicant!
- Sparxie: You... got another mask!?
- Himeko: "Before SparxiCon begins, the hero of the Express will defeat the villain who tried to spread the virus." And soon, the world will watch it happen live. In their hearts, they'll long for the Trailblaze too.
- Himeko: You were never the only option for the audience, Sparxie.
- Sparxie: You know why I can't stand "heroic stories"? You lot always wave the flag of "justice," then stomp all over the fun with brute force.
- Sparxie: The Elation has nothing to do with justice! And you haven't won yet!
- Sparkle: Ma'am! Gray Hair! Don't tell me you forgot the plan? I'll stall her.
- Always gotta steal the spotlight, huh?
- Sparkle: We don't have much time left, do we? I'm trying to give us better odds of winning here.
- How long can you hold her off?
- Sparkle: A long, long time. Come on, Gray Hair, have a little faith in me!
- Sparkle: There's one thing I've always wondered: who's the real Sparkle, and who's just a mask... shouldn't the last one standing decide that?
- Sparxie: Then let's settle it right now. I'll make you the opening firework of SparxiCon!
- Sparkle & Sparxie: AAAAAHHHHH...
- Sequence 09March 7th's voice hollered from above, letting you know that she and Welt were in the art classroom. While Sparkle kept Sparxie occupied, you headed over to regroup with your companions.
- "Sparxified" Man: Unbelievable! A girl who looks exactly like Miss Sparxie just rushed in and started throwing punches.
- "Sparxified" Man: Could she be... a high-grade lookalike rival?
- "Sparxified" Man: Looks like when it comes to top-tier VStreamer wars, the fanciest fights are fought the old-fashioned way!
- (Trailblazer): I... huh...
- March 7th: Hey, friends! Over here! Look this way!
- Himeko: Is that... March's voice?
- March 7th: Over here! Mr. Yang and I are in the art classroom!
- Himeko: While Sparkle keeps her busy, let's regroup with March first.
Go to the Art Classroom to regroup with March 7th
- (Investigate the clashing figures, optional)
- Two similar figures clashed together, battling fiercely amidst swirling smoke and chaos, making it impossible to tell one from the other. From within the fray, faint voices could be heard...
- Sparxie: A mere mask dares to threaten its master with such arrogance!?
- Sparkle: Who's the mask, and who's the master? That's still up for debate!
- (Approach the group of fans by the Notice Board east of the Academy Atrium Space Anchor, optional)
- "Sparxified" Fan: Love the Sparx, guard the Sparx~ Never fear the dark!
- (Trailblazer): What kind of trash rhyming is that...
- (Approach the group of fans near the Main Building Corridor entrance, optional)
- "Sparxified" Fan: Evil, take flight, Sparxie blazes bright!
- (Trailblazer): You people... get a grip!
- "Sparxified" Fan: Sparxicle! Sparxicle! Sparxicle!
- (Enter Interplanar Jump!)
- Himeko: Move this platform, and you should be able to get up there.
- (Exit Interplanar Jump!)
- Sequence 10Welt said Sparxie had split the imagenated landscape mural into three parts, and he had already recovered the "sampan." You and Himeko headed to the library, while March 7th and Welt searched for the furbo journalist.
- March 7th: Miss Himeko! (Trailblazer)! You're finally here!
- March, I brought backup!
- March, thank goodness you're okay, bana!
- Himeko: March, I'm just so happy you're safe, bana.
- March 7th: After (Trailblazer) escaped the school, I figured (he'd/
she'd) bring you back. So while Sparxie was away, I found a classroom to hide in. - March 7th: The students around here have been acting weirder and weirder... Good thing my heart is pure and untouched, so her tricks don't work on me!
- March 7th: Hold up, were you two just talking with some weird verbal tic?
- We chose to fight poison with banana.
- March 7th: ...What? You actually used that Penaconian memetic virus to counter Sparxie's influence?
- March 7th: I don't care if the Express turns into a "Sparxie" train or a "monkey" train! I want no part of either!
- Is Mr. Yang okay?
- Himeko: What about Welt? Is he alright?
- March 7th: Mr. Yang, it's our friends! Come on out!
- Himeko: You look perfectly normal, though? So that "Professor" Welt (Trailblazer) saw in the news...
- Welt: Just a bit of acting on my part. Let's not dwell on that right now.
- Welt: Like March, I realized something was corrupting our cognition when I arrived at school. She even pulled from one of my past memories to strengthen the effect... It was pretty frustrating.
- Welt: Luckily, I've dealt with something similar before... I snapped out of cognition corruption very fast this time, so I decided to keep playing the teacher and hide some students away in secret.
- Welt: So, any ideas on how to dispel Sparxie's influence?
- You told March and Welt about the intel you obtained at the "tavern" and your action plan.
- Welt: ...No wonder these students took down the wave mural from the central courtyard. Sparxie had them break it into three parts: the waves, the wooden boat, and the moon.
- Welt: I don't know where they hid the waves and the moon, but I managed to retrieve the "wooden boat" that was stored in the archive room from the students.
- Picture missing
- March 7th: As expected from "Teacher" Yang!
- Himeko: We might have a lead on the other two painting pieces. Have you seen... a furbo-nana?
- March 7th: You mean... a furbo?
- Himeko: We sent a local reporter into the school, but his luck turned sour-nana. Sparxie caught him red-handed.
- Himeko: Before he was taken away, he managed to take a photo of the library. I want to check it out with (Trailblazer).
- Picture missing
- March 7th: What about me and Mr. Yang? Now that we have a lead, no way we'll just sit here doing nothing!
- Welt: March and I will go track down that furbo reporter. We might even find out where the last piece of the painting was hidden.
- Himeko: That's the plan. Let us know right away if you find any leads.
Go to the library to find the fragments of "Worldbreaker Waves"
- (Go to mission target)
- (Trailblazer): Himeko, where's the library?
- Himeko: I know the way... I just hope they haven't renovated the academy in the past fifteen years.
- (Interact with the School Leader's Portrait, optional)
- A portrait of a majestic imagenae, who is apparently a certain school official. You're positive the actual official doesn't look like that. Seems like some students are clearly trying a bit too hard to score brownie points.
- (Investigate the clashing figures, optional)
- Sparxie: Give it up, you outdated model!
- Sparkle: Shush! Eat my hammer!
- Sparxie: Oww! Darn it!
- "Sparxified" Student: The Express Crew is here!
- "Sparxified" Student: Please follow my livestream channel!
- "Sparxified" Student: Please give Miss Sparxie lots of likes!
- (Investigate the clashing figures, optional)
- Sparxie: Let go! You're pulling my hair!
- Sparkle: That's the whole point! Surrender to Miss Sparkle like a good girl!
- (Approach mission target)
- Himeko: The library's just up ahead. Finally, I can get away from all these livestream-obsessed students...
- Sequence 11You and Himeko arrived at the library to look for the "waves" or "moon" part of the imagenated landscape mural. Sparxified students surrounded you, and as their senior, Himeko had no choice but to teach them a lesson.
- (Go to mission target)
- Himeko: We're here, bana.
- (Trailblazer): But I don't see any "waves" or "moon"...
- "Sparxified" Lady: Where could it be...? Like I'd ever tell you!
- "Sparxified" Man: Miss Sparxie herself ordered us to guard this place with our lives.
- "Sparxified" Lady: Hey, get that stream running...
- Himeko: Kids these days... They ignore their studies just to focus on the internet.
- Himeko: As an alum of Graphia Academy, it's my duty, as tradition dictates, to give you all a proper "extracurricular lesson."
- Himeko: Hey, juniors, ready to roll?

- Sequence 12After searching without results, you and Himeko reviewed the photos Paraprince took earlier. The photos showed Sparxie appearing near a bookshelf.
- (Trailblazer): Where could they be hiding the landscape painting?
- Himeko: After all, it's an image-nana'ed thing. Once sealed in a scroll or something, it'll be a pain to retrieve, bana...
- Himeko: Oh right, let's check out that photo-nana the reporter left us. Maybe we can find some clues?
- Picture missing
- Could that be hidden near that bookshelf, bana?
Look behind the bookshelf
- (Investigate the students sitting on the ground, optional)
- The subdued students have drifted off into a sweet, peaceful slumber after taking your physical hypnotherapy treatment. Rest up now.
- Sequence 13You and Himeko entered a strange classroom and split up to search for the imagenated landscape mural.
- (Touch the screen)
- (Trailblazer): Where are we now?
- Himeko: This place looks just like any other classroom... but something's off.
- (Trailblazer): Let's look around.
Search the classroom for fragments of "Worldbreaker Waves"
- (Investigate the comic book, optional)
- Someone carelessly tossed a comic magazine on the table.
- "July 20th, 1984, Issue #29, introducing the brand new series Super Leaf Walkers!"... Man, that's such an old-school comic.
- (Investigate the notebook, optional)
- There's a notebook in the desk, with a sticky note attached to a page of the calendar.
- "50th Anniversary Preparations... Purchase streamers, lanterns... Student exhibition planning... 84/07/16"
- Sequence 14You and Himeko found the "waves" part of the imagenated landscape mural. At this moment, laughter echoed through the classroom. Something's off, this place seemed to be hiding something.
- (Investigate the painting)
- Picture missing
- Himeko: So this is where they stashed the "Wave."
- Himeko: Did you hear something, (Trailblazer)?
- I did.
- (Trailblazer): I think I heard someone laughing.
- Nope.
- (Trailblazer): I didn't hear a thing.
- Himeko: ...Something's not right. Is there something hidden here?
Investigate the source of the strange sound
- Step DescriptionThis classroom feels different from the rest of the building. It's got a strange vibe...
Almost like there are secrets hidden here that nobody's supposed to find.
- (Investigate the chalkboard)
- Sequence 15You investigated the blackboard. It read: "Arcadian Calendar, July 22nd, 1984. Students on duty: Belle, Fulwish." Students appeared in the room, and one of the girls called out to Himeko.
- Chalk marks gleam fresh on one side of the blackboard, as if written just today.
- "Arcadian Calendar, July 22nd 1984. On duty: Belle, Fulwish"
- Himeko: July 22nd, 1984? Belle? Could this classroom be...?
- Himeko, are you okay?
- Did we just time travel?
- ???: ...Senior? You're back!
- Himeko: ...Belle?
- (Trailblazer): And you are...?
- Himeko: But... how is this possible?
Talk to the student who just showed up
- (Student idles)
- Student: Tomorrow's the school's anniversary.
- Student: Wanna grab some snacks on the rooftop?
- Student: Come help me decorate the school hall!
- Student: You'll help me, right?
- Student: Yo, boss! You're back?
- Student: We've been waiting for you forever.
- Student: Boss Himeko, you look kinda pale.
- Sequence 16Belle marveled at how much Himeko had changed. She and her classmates had been waiting here for Himeko all this time. Himeko apologized for the belated visit, saying that since it was such a rare reunion, they should at least share a smile.
- (Talk to Belle)
- Belle: It really is you, senior!
- Belle: You look so different! We almost didn't recognize you. Still, that dashing aura of yours simply can't be obscured.
- Belle: I... and so many of us... we've been here waiting all this time.
- Himeko: I'm so sorry... I was gone too long. It's unforgivable that I never came back to visit you all.
- Belle: ...You, apologizing so seriously? That's not like you at all, senior.
- Himeko: Yeah... After all this time, the least I can do is smile.
- Tooltip for 18px|link=ⓘ Sequence 17Himeko explained that these students were no longer among the living. They were young people buried here after a tragic accident. Belle suddenly screamed in panic, sensing something terrible approaching.
- Himeko: But... all of you are already dead.
- (Trailblazer): Himeko... these students... Who are they?
- Himeko: They're the shadows cast by my past regrets... Young lives buried here by a tragic accident.
- (Trailblazer): ...What?
- Belle: Oh no, senior. He's here... that thing is coming!
- Himeko: ...Wait, what did you just say?
Tooltip for 18px|link=ⓘ Sequence 18A bloody hand print appeared on the window, and the students cried out in surprise about the Herald of Death's return. Belle yelled for Himeko to run, and you and Himeko were driven out of the strange classroom.- (Cutscene starts)
- Belle: Everyone, hide! We mustn't let that monster find us!
- Belle: Run, senior! The Herald of Death is back!
- Himeko: ...Belle!
- (Cutscene ends)
- Sequence 19Himeko explained that these students were spirits of those who died in the last Phantasmoon Games, and they were being attacked by something even more sinister. With "waves" secured, it was time to regroup with Welt and the others.
- The classroom door closed, and before you knew it, you were standing in the hallway.
- (Peek through the door crack)
- The gap in the door seems filled with an impenetrable darkness, and you can't see a thing.
- (Listen through the door crack)
- You hear what sounds like light raindrops gently falling on the window.
- In the classroom, someone carefully paced around, treading across the sticky floor... like a painter walking on spilled paint scattered all over the ground.
- (Push the door with force)
- The classroom door won't budge an inch, no matter how much force you apply to it.
- (After selecting all three of the above options)
- Himeko: ...We've got the "Wave" now. Time to regroup with Welt and the others.
- But these students...
- Aren't there still people trapped inside?
- Himeko: You can't save them. They're already ghosts. It wasn't Sparxie who attacked them, but something far more cruel.
- Himeko: And they... didn't die in the present, but during a certain twilight, fifteen years ago. We can't change their fates.
- Himeko: However, this definitely isn't some kind of time travel to the past...
- Himeko: Someone created this space for unknown reasons... only to re-enact before an eyewitness the bloodbath at Graphia Academy from the Phantasmoon Games fifteen years ago.
- The Phantasmoon Games fifteen years ago?
- You were there at the time?
- Himeko: That's right. But that has nothing to do with the enemy we're facing right now.
- Himeko: I know you have a lot of questions now... but we'll have time to talk about all this in detail after we deal with Sparxie.
- Himeko: Come on. It's time for us to meet up with Welt. He just messaged and said he and March found the missing furbo nana reporter, bana, and the final landscape painting piece.
Go to the gym to regroup with your companions
- Step DescriptionWe've got the Sampan and the Waves. Now we just need the last piece of the landscape mural — the Moon!
- (Investigate the clashing figures, optional)
- Sparkle: Get your fist outta my face!
- Sparxie: Then move your foot first!
- Sequence 20You found Paraprince in the gym. He said Sparxie entrusted the "moon" portion of the imagenated landscape mural to an emoti wispae in the building for safekeeping. Everyone split up to search for the "moon."
- (Go to mission target)
- Welt: You okay, Mr. Furbo?
- March 7th: Good thing we got here in time, or you would've ended up as a target practice dummy!
- Paraprince: Beep boop, this furbo... nearly bit the dust!
- Paraprince: President, you're here! You're gonna give this furbo some hazard pay, right?
- You didn't even finish the job.
- So, where's the third landscape painting piece?
- Welt: Mr. Furbo here said the students put the "moon" inside the gymnasium.
- These moons... they're everywhere...
- These orbs... they're everywhere...
- What... in the world are all these things everywhere?
- Himeko: Wispae called "emotis."
- Paraprince: Sparxie must have given the moon to one of the emotis to look after!
- March 7th: She really went all out, didn't she? The whole gym's full of moons... Now what!?
- Himeko: Be it Sparkle or Sparxie, both are equally just as headache-inducing.
- Himeko: Alright, everyone, let's round up these emotis and take a look!
Search the emotis for fragments of "Worldbreaker Waves"
- Step DescriptionParaprince says the students hid the Moon in the gym, probably on one of the emotis.
In that case, time to give those emotis a thorough search!
- (Investigate the emoti at the front left corner, optional)
- March 7th: You! Fess up! Did you stash the moon somewhere!?
- The wispae called "Emoti" lets out a sharp, shrill snicker.
- March 7th: I pried open its mouth to take a look. Seems this little guy didn't swallow the moon.
- (Investigate the emoti at the front right corner, optional)
- Welt: The texture of this ball... seems different from the others.
- "Emoti" bursts into soft, whiny sobs.
- Welt: Okay, okay, don't cry. No one's going to hurt you.
- (Investigate the emoti at the back left corner, optional)
- This wispae suddenly charges against you like a cannon ball firing from its chamber

- Sequence 21An emoti was stuck on the basketball hoop, sporting a smug grin. March 7th thought it might know where the "moon" is hidden, but you'll need a way to reach the emoti.
- (Approach the emoti on the basketball hoop)
- A high-and-mighty Emoti is stuck fast in the basketball hoop. Perched there like a monarch upon a throne, it gazes down coldly at the frantic bustle of your efforts below.
- You eyeballing me, emoti?
- You know where the moon is hidden?
- Its gaze shifts awkwardly away, but a smug grin sneaks onto its lips, as if thinking: "You've got no knees? Pfft, good luck reaching for the moon."
- March 7th: That sneaky laugh... it probably does know where the moon is hiding... but how are we meant to even reach the thing?
Teach the emoti on the basketball hoop a lesson
- (Enter Interplanar Jump!)
- Himeko: The gym... I've missed this...
- Himeko: There was a time when I really envied those classmates who could sprint across the field, giving it their all.
In "Interplanar Jump!," there are mechanism gates with indicator lights on them. These gates can only be opened by activating all indicator lights, each of which is linked to a pressure-triggered button, and pressing the button will activate its corresponding indicator light.

Pressure-triggered buttons come in two colors. The blue ones will not pop back up after being activated, while the purple ones will automatically pop back up after being activated.- March 7th: Huh? Isn't this Himeko's alma mater too?
- March 7th: Don't tell me Himeko was the quiet type who stayed far away from the gym back in school?
- Himeko: Not quite... I'd already graduated by the time I started feeling this way.
- Himeko: Due to some circumstances, I went back to my father's school to work.
- Himeko: One good jump, and we should be able to reach that emoti!
- Proud Emoti: Th—This fragment, Miss Sparxie gave it to me to guard! You... You can't have it!
- Proud Emoti: Waaaaaaah...
Go to Graphia Academy and continue the adventure
- (Exit Interplanar Jump!)
- Sequence 22"Moon" secured. Now you and Himeko needed to head to the school courtyard to assemble the imagenated landscape mural and to use it against Sparxie. Meanwhile, Welt and March 7th followed Himeko's instructions to stay behind, protecting the students and preventing innocent casualties.
- Picture missing
- Welt: And with that, we've got our hands on the third part of the scenery, the "Moon".
- March 7th: Alright! Time to settle the score with Sparxie!
- My bat's been itching for some action!
- Himeko: Since Sparxie dared to target the Astral Express, treating us like stepping-nana stones in the Phantasmoon Games, she had better be ready to become a spoil of war herself.
- Himeko: (Trailblazer) and I will head to the atrium next, piece the imagenated landscape back together, and help Sparkle take down Sparxie.
- Himeko: Welt, March, I'm counting on you to protect the students at the academy. Dovebrook's waves should suppress the memetic contamination they're experiencing, but they might panic and run into the combat area...
- Himeko: ...This time, I truly hope no innocent people get hurt during the Phantasmoon Games.
- March 7th: Don't worry, Miss Himeko. Mr. Yang and I have got this.
- March 7th: (Trailblazer), you better give that girl a taste of her own medicine for messing with us like some comedy act!
- Let's go!
- Just leave it to me!
Piece together "Worldbreaker Waves"
- Step DescriptionAnd that's a wrap! Once we put the imagenated landscape mural back together, Himeko can finally wipe out the "Sparxie Virus."
Sparxie's been messing with us long enough. Time to get even!
- (Go to mission target)
- Betting Student: What does everyone think? Will the Nameless win?
- Betting Student: Let's cheer for Miss Sparxie!
- Betting Student: Who will emerge victorious: Miss Sparxie or the Astral Express? Stay tuned to find out!
- Sequence 23You reached the courtyard, but Sparkle and Sparxie, locked in battle, were nowhere to be seen. As a Supplicant, you issued a challenge to Sparxie. A mocking voice answered from afar. She gleefully accepted the challenge.
- Himeko: Sparkle and Sparxie are gone? And the students too?
- Sparxie: If you think you've got this in the bag... you're in for a rude awakening!
- Sparxie: SparxiCon hasn't even started!
- (Trailblazer): Time for your SparxiCon grand finale!
- (Trailblazer): Because I, the Nameless of the Astral Express, will challenge you as a fellow Supplicant, and crush your "Elation"!
- Sparxie: Challenge me? I'd love to fight you ♥
- Himeko: (Trailblazer), hurry up and put the scenery pieces together.
- Tooltip for 18px|link=ⓘ Sequence 24Sparxie defeated and absorbed Sparkle. Even as Dovebrook's towering waves crashed down, she kept her mask on and transformed. You donned a raccoon mask as well and faced off against Sparxie. "The first battle of the Phantasmoon Supplicants has commenced!"
- (Cutscene begins)
- Sparxie: That annoying old model has already fallen asleep~
- Sparkle: Ugh...
- Sparxie: Soon...
- Sparxie: There will only be one Sparkle in the world...
- Sparxie: Or maybe everyone will be one...
- Sparxie: Attacking during my transformation? How despicable!
- Sparxie: Too bad! The audience has all arrived!
- Sparxie: I hereby declare: The first battle...
- Sparxie: Of the Phantasmoon Supplicants has commenced!

Defeat "SparxiCon"
- (Begin battle against

- Sparxie: How could you resist everyone's love!
- (When Live Showdown ends in enemy's defeat)
- Sparxie: Still hanging on!?
- Sparxie: Did everyone... really take good care of Sparxicle?
- (When Live Showdown ends in enemy's defeat a second time)
- Sparxie: I understand... everyone did their best...
- (Entering second phase)
- Sparxie: Why... I had all of the internet behind me!
- Sparxie: How could a mere Nameless surpass my popularity?
- (When Sparxie uses "Bullet Comments Ready!")
- Sparxie: Everyone, let's drown (him/
her) in our spit!
- (When Sparxie uses "Bullet Comments Ready!" a second time)
- Sparxie: People, let's get the PR slander going!
- (When Sparxie is reduced to 1 HP)
- (Trailblazer): Not everyone wants to be you.
- (Trailblazer): I'll show them... my Elation!
- Tooltip for 18px|link=ⓘ Sequence 25Sparxie blended in among the Sparxified students, attempting to escape. Using the vision shared by Sunday, Yao Guang aided you with the "Eye of Īśvara" to pinpoint Sparxie's location and defeated her once and for all.
- (Cutscene begins)
- Sparxie: SparxiCon... isn't over yet!
- Himeko: Stop her! She's trying to escape into the crowd!
- Yao Guang: No need to panic, you two. Sunday will share my vision with you.
- Yao Guang: Let my "Eye of Īśvara" see through it all.
- Yao Guang: Weal and woe, clear as say!
- Yao Guang: I see... where the culprit is.
- Yao Guang: Caught you~
- (Cutscene ends)
Go to Graphia Academy and continue the adventure
- Step DescriptionNow that the SparxiCon livestream is over, the chaos Sparxie caused is finally settling down. The Supplicants' first battle ends in a win for the Express Crew.
- Sequence 26You glimpsed the shifting ominous signs above Yao Guang's head. Yao Guang asked you to keep it secret, and in return she would keep yours: your identity as a former Stellaron Hunter.
- Himeko: ...Are you okay, (Trailblazer)?
- (Trailblazer): ...Where did everyone go?
- Yao Guang: Look over here.
- (Trailblazer): General Yao Guang? Am I seeing things?
- Yao Guang: We're just "attuned" to each other, that's all.
- Yao Guang: Feeling dizzy? Don't worry. It's just a minor side effect.
- Yao Guang: When I first "opened my eyes", I couldn't even conduct basic self-care for nearly a month. Don't worry, though. With my reinforcement, you'll be back to normal in a moment.
- (Trailblazer): Thank you, general. By the way, above your head...
- Yao Guang: Can you see the sign above my head?
- Yao Guang: So, whether it brings weal or woe... whether it changes or not, please keep this secret safe for me. Don't let me know, and don't let anyone else, okay?
What's in it for me?
- Yao Guang: Hey, I went out of my way to help you here. Can't you give me a discount? Consider it good karma!
- Can't Sunday see your sign?
- Yao Guang: I'm afraid not. As an observer, your gaze reaches far deeper than his...
- What are you afraid of?
- Yao Guang: In that fleeting moment, your eyes gained insight into my destiny...
- Yao Guang: For those who wish to defy their own destiny, the best approach is to avoid gazing too long into fate, especially not letting powerful observers do so.
- Yao Guang: Now that you know the reason, surely you'll do me this small favor and keep this secret?
- I will keep this a secret.
- Yao Guang: Thanks. And of course, be careful not to let it slip, or else...
- But what if I let it slip?
- Yao Guang: Heh heh, if you dare to spill the secret...
- Yao Guang: I'll tell everyone all about your true identity! ...You're a "former Stellaron Hunter," aren't you?
- Yao Guang: Oh, just imagine the chain reaction that would cause! I don't even want to think about it!
- Yao Guang: Doesn't this feel like the opening scene of a comedy? Two people who barely know each other, yet they're keeping each other's destiny a secret. Tsk, I guess you could say we're now "partners in fate," huh?
- Yao Guang: No surprise there. After all, both "comedy" and "fortune-telling" thrive on unexpected twists and turns of fate, don't they?
- Yao Guang: Alright, looks like the side effects have worn off. Time for us to say goodbye.
- Sequence 27Sparxie's livestream ended, and the students snapped out of their Sparxified state. After witnessing you smack Sparxie into the wall with a single swing of the bat, a huge number of students became rabid fans of the Astral Express.
- Student: ...What just happened?
- Student: I was so confused. I couldn't see a thing. All I remember is Sparxie and the Nameless got into a fight.
- Student: I saw everything! The Nameless from the Express smashed Sparxie right into the wall with one swing! That strength was unreal!
- Student: Th–That was such an epic fight... As expected from a cosmic hero, that was seriously awesome!
- Students: Astral Express! Astral Express! Astral Express! Astral Express!
- Himeko: Looks like the students have all recovered from the contamination.
- (Trailblazer): ...Did they recover?
Talk to Himeko
- (Listen to the students on the left, optional)
- Whispering Student: Did you hear? The (guy/
girl) who beat Sparxie is the original inspiration for the protagonist in Fluffy Across the Blue. You know... that raccoon! - Whispering Student: (He's crazy cool!/
She's such a badass!) - Whispering Student: Sparxie was totally outshone!
- (Listen to the students on the right, optional)
- Whispering Student: Wow, I always thought the whole "hero who defeated the Antimatter Legion" thing was just hot air.
- Whispering Student: That hit... gave me chills.
- Whispering Student: Chills? You should be impressed! Wow, I wish I could be that strong.
- Step DescriptionLooks like the "Sparkle vs. Sparxie" showdown finally has a winner. Let's hear what Miss Sparkle has to say for herself!
- Sequence 28Sparkle was relieved that you defeated Sparxie. At this point, regardless of which one was truly the mask, it was time for the persona to return to its wearer.
- (Talk to Sparkle, optional)
- Sparkle: When she absorbed me... I thought it was all over.
- Sparkle: Thankfully, Gray Hair, you won this one. One point for the Trailblaze!
- Are you really just a mask?
- Sparkle: Who knows! But come on, doesn't that sound insanely cool?
- Sparkle: I'm totally adding this to Miss Sparkle's 132 Origin Stories!
- Sparkle: Maybe we're all just masks that someone else has shed!
- The tavern won't send assassins after me, right?
- Sparkle: The tavern? Haha, they might kick up a fuss about Sparxie's defeat for a few days. Maybe some foolish hotheads might even come knocking to fight you...
- Sparkle: But trust me, give it a couple days and the tavern will act like none of it ever happened.
- So, what's your plan now?
- Sparkle: If I really am a mask, then naturally I should return to my wearer's face.
- Sparkle: But if I'm not... then maybe I need to reclaim the mask I've lost.
- (Trailblazer): I understand.
- Sequence 29Wishpower from Planarcadia kept flowing toward you and your mask. Himeko asked you to cherish this attention, and to represent the Trailblaze and demonstrate the essence of Elation. The battle was won. Sparxie's disposal was now entirely at your discretion.
- (Talk to Himeko)
- Himeko: Sparxie probably didn't expect that the first miracle of the Phantasmoon Games wouldn't be "Everyone becomes her," but "The Express hero defeats the villain spreading the virus."
- Himeko: Compared to a streamer reflecting people's desires, the fearless Trailblazer of the Astral Express is more of an attention-grabber.
- So this is the Phantasmoon Games, huh?
- Himeko: That's right. Sometimes the Supplicants work together, sometimes they clash... It's like a coin toss. No telling which side will land until the moment it hits the ground
- Himeko: At least this time, I hope it doesn't end in bloodshed.
- What do I get if I win?
- Himeko: You're one step closer to an audience with Aha. Right now, all of Planarcadia is watching you, and all of their attention's flooding over you... and the mask you wear.
- Himeko: Make the most of that attention. From now on, you'll represent the Trailblaze to show this world of Elation "what Elation is."
- What should we do with Sparxie?
- Himeko: Show mercy, or don't... No, no, I'm just kidding. Lower your bat.
- Himeko: The audience in this arcadia doesn't go easy on losers at the games. She'll lose her Wishpower soon enough, and the "Sparxie Virus" will fizzle out.
- Himeko: You can hand her over to the Department of Aberration Defense for imprisonment, or set her free. As a Supplicant who's become the focus of all, I'm sure you've already made your decision, right?
Decide what to do with Sparxie
- Step DescriptionNow that the SparxiCon livestream is over, the chaos Sparxie caused is finally settling down. The Supplicants' first battle ends in a win for the Express Crew.
- Sequence 30Sparxie, banking on your mercy, proposed an alliance for the upcoming Phantasmoon Games. You reclaimed her mask and handed her over to Sparkle to deal with as she saw fit.
- (Finish Her!)
- Sparxie: So, victor, here to claim your prize? Very well, Sparxicle has no objections to that.
- Sparxie: So what'll it be? Gonna hand me off to the Department of Aberration Defense, lock me up as a hardened criminal? But knowing you... you're not that heartless, are you?
- Sparxie: Or maybe you want to take away my streaming account as punishment? I'll livestream 24/7 and sing praises of your valor! ♥
- Hand me your mask.
- Sparxie: Alright, alright... Let what belongs to the Graphia family return to the Graphia family...
- Sparxie: But don't let this little win get to your head! You've still got a long, long way to go before you meet The Laughter.
- Sparxie: We can keep working together. Better to have a friend at the Phantasmoon Games than another enemy, right?
- Sparxie: ...What, no parting words?
- I'm letting Sparkle decide your fate.
- Sparxie: Hmph.
- Tooltip for 18px|link=ⓘ Sequence 31Sparxie confessed that the current state of affairs was orchestrated by Sparkle, who had commanded her to flee into the distance with those memories. Sparkle's response? "How very 'Sparkle' of me!" As Sparkle and Sparxie merged into a single entity, she offered one final piece of advice: "Don't underestimate the Phantasmoon Games."
- Sparkle: How do you like this ending, Sparxicle?
- Sparxie: Old model... you and your powerful supporter won this one. I've got no comeback.
- Sparxie: As a mask, what do you plan to do with your original self?
- Sparkle: Who's the mask and who's the original... Shouldn't that be decided by the one left standing? Your plan is finished. Your Elation has been eliminated. You're the one who should be called the "old model".
- Sparxie: That Elation isn't mine. It's the Elation everyone chose. And besides...
- Sparxie: Wasn't it your idea in the first place?
- Sparkle: WHAT!?
- Sparxie: You told me to leave you behind. You also told me to take the idea and its relevant memories, and go chase my dream.
- Sparkle: ...
- Sparkle: Uhhhh...
- Sparkle: That's totally something Miss Sparkle would do!
- Sparxie: How do you like this ending, Sparkle?
- Sparxie: How does that joke go again? "Take the Mask from a Masked Fool, and what's left but a fool."
- Sparkle: "But take the Fool out of a Masked Fool, and all that's left is the mask."
- Sparxie: Come on, Sparkle~♥ Time to end this little charade. No show is complete without a curtain call. Shall we become one at last?
- Sparkle: Bang!
- Sparkle & Sparxie: Ladies and gentlemen, are you having fun?
- Sparkle: A friendly reminder from Miss Sparkle: ...don't underestimate the Phantasmoon Games! You won't get another opening act as spectacular as this "SparxiCon," you know?
- Sequence 32Reflecting on the confusing duality of Sparkle and Sparxie, Himeko posited that Sparkle was reminding us of a grim reality: the brand of "Elation" bred in Planarcadia had mutated into something unrecognizable to the divine. At Himeko's request, you followed her back to the strange classroom to investigate further.
- After the toy gun went off, Sparkle and Sparxie were no longer there.
- (Trailblazer): Sparxie... uh no, Sparkle? Which one is which?
- Himeko: Perhaps it was just a Masked Fool playing a harmless trick under the watchful eyes of the gods.
- Himeko: Or maybe, she just wanted to remind us... that the Elation in Planarcadia has become something even the gods no longer recognize.
- Himeko: In any case, everything here has come to an end. (Trailblazer), we should move on and unravel the next plot.
- What?
- Himeko: Let's go to that classroom, where "time froze fifteen years ago."
- ...That creepy classroom?
- Himeko: Indeed.
- Himeko: I want to investigate and find out who exactly created that place and why.
- Himeko: Let me know when you're ready to head out.
- Let's go now.
Give me a moment.
- (Talk to Himeko again)
- Himeko: I'm really curious about that "classroom frozen in time from fifteen years ago."
- Himeko: (Trailblazer), just let me know when you're ready to head out.
- Let's go now.
- Give me a moment.
Go to the old classroom
- Step DescriptionNow that the SparxiCon livestream is over, the chaos Sparxie caused is finally settling down. The Supplicants' first battle ends in a win for the Express Crew.
But now... I've got more questions than answers. Who is Sparxie, and what really happened in that tragedy fifteen years ago?
- Sequence 33Himeko once participated in the previous Phantasmoon Games as a Supplicant. During that time, a Supplicant harboring immense malice brutally murdered many students and citizens, leaving bloody handprints at each crime scene. The media dubbed them the "Herald of Death." Graphia Academy's Dean Ryusuke entered the classroom, saying his daughter "Himeko" was already killed in that year's "Bloodstained Games."
- You retrace your steps back to that eerie twilight classroom.
- Himeko: This place... It's like nothing ever happened. The ghosts are gone.
- What exactly happened back then?
- Himeko: Fifteen years ago, during the last Phantasmoon Games, I participated as a Supplicant.
- Himeko: I once believed that all it took for a Supplicant to win was to show the people a magnificent "miracle," and then I'd have an audience with the Aeon of Elation...
- Himeko: How foolish... how naive I was. Not everyone wants to obtain everyone's Wishpower in a positive way.
- Himeko: On July 22nd, year 1984 of the Arcadian Calendar, a Supplicant harboring immense malice stepped into Graphia Academy...
- Himeko: He slaughtered twenty-two students who had stayed behind after school, then went on to Dovebrook District, where one hundred and forty-six innocent civilians were either killed or wounded.
- Himeko: That killer moved like a deranged artist, leaving corpses imprinting his signature mark... the Bloody Bloom. The media dubbed him... the Herald of Death.
- ???: It was a tragedy that the world could not forget. The Phantasmoon Games of that year came to be remembered as the "Bloodstained Games"...
- ???: So many parents lost their children. So many people lost those dearest to them.
- ???: One of the victims... was my very own daughter. Upon my return, I stood before the grave, where she was laid to rest.
- ???: ...Her name was Himeko.
- What!?
- Who are you?
- ???: Forgive me. Allow me to introduce myself. I am Ryusuke, the current dean of Graphia Academy.
- Ryusuke: So, this lady who bears her name...
- Ryusuke: ...Who exactly are you?
- Himeko: Fifteen years ago, when I made up my mind to join this Phantasmoon Games, my father wasn't with me.
- Himeko: Even as I fought for my life against the Herald of Death, my father was still off somewhere, wandering the cosmos.
- Himeko: Strictly speaking, ever since I can remember, his presence in my life has been as thin as the air in space...
- Himeko: So, I would ask you who bears his name, who exactly are you?
Trivia
