The starting point of the world, hidden by the waves. A grand sanctuary that houses the primal divinity of the Twelve Titans. It's also the promised land that will see the descent of the Miracle of Genesis, as prophesized by the oracles.

The Vortex of Genesis is an area on Amphoreus.

Collecting Thoughts

(Edge of cliff, closest to the Coreflames)
(Before completing any Amphoreus Trailblaze Missions)
Icon Dialogue Loupe Collect your thoughts
As you sit down, the light of the stars begins to ripple before you, the waves shine, and the air seems to resonate with echoes.
(Trailblazer): This place is pretty refreshing... It would be a great place to come and reflect on my thoughts.

(After completing Hero, Bear Thy Coreflame)
Icon Dialogue Loupe Collect your thoughts
As you sit down, the light of the stars begins to ripple before you, the waves shine, and the air seems to resonate with echoes.
(Random outcome 1)
(Trailblazer): Phainon's trial is not ever yet... I wonder how he is getting on?
You reflect on your first meeting with the white-haired man. Back then, he was so spirited, like no one in the world could stand in his way. Then, you think about his expression before he threw himself into his trial. Though he wasn't hesitating, he was also far from confident.
Just what kind of pressure is he under, shouldering the burden of being the legendary and prophesied "Deliverer?" If he were to fail, what kind of blame would he face?
It seems that saving the world is no simple matter. However, perhaps mortals can become "heroes" in stories because they do not hesitate despite knowing the inevitable outcome.
(Trailblazer): ...I hope that he will achieve his wish.
(Random outcome 2)
(Trailblazer): The "Black Tide." What a strange name... Could that be related to Stellarons?
This is not the first time you've heard its name. It's the source of the disaster that is befalling Amphoreus. As for its origins, a number of possibilities flash through your mind — one of which leaves you feeling quite uneasy.
The Strife Titan Nikador. They were once a symbol of glory and now they have fallen to become the "Mad King" — They continue to fight back against the black tide though their body is broken and battered. That's how you can tell how serious this disaster is.
From what you've learned in your trailblazing experience, every crisis ends up being related to the Stellarons. However, your intuition tells you that lightning never strikes the same place twice, and not all such things can be written off as the work of Nanook.
(Trailblazer): Let's just hope that this trailblaze can have a happy ending, too.
(Random outcome 3)
(Trailblazer): Collecting the Coreflames and creating the world anew... Is the strength of the Titans really capable of such things?
Titans, Coreflames, Chrysos Heirs... When you first boarded the Express, you had once complained that you'd fallen into a sci-fi movie... Now, it's suddenly a fantasy movie.
Inside this Vortex of Genesis, you and the Chrysos Heirs came to a misunderstanding that you were fortunately able to resolve. Though you considered leaving this planet, you ended up gaining the power of a Titan and standing alongside the Chrysos Heirs in battle.
Their determination is admirable, but just what are these Titans? Where does their power come from? If Amphoreus is to be trailblazed, these questions must be answered and entered into the data bank.
(Trailblazer): Come to think of it, Mem... is a real mystery.

(After completing Passage, Reveal the Past Once More)
Icon Dialogue Loupe Collect your thoughts
As you sit down, the light of the stars begins to ripple before you, the waves shine, and the air seems to resonate with echoes.
(Random outcome 1)
Tribbie... I didn't expect her to have such a past.
As the Holy Maiden of Janusopolis, she was once revered by thousands, yet she suffered great hostility for stealing the Coreflame. Those guards who once swore to protect her turned their spears against her.
To deliver the prophecy, she shattered her body into countless pieces, scattering herself into myriad forms, until even the boundaries of her sense of self blurred, and her mind regressed to that of a child...
Now, even Trianne, one of the last three, has exhausted her strength. From now on, the duty of the gatekeeper will be carried on by Tribbie. She has made her decision — they have made their decision.
Losses... are indeed a constant on the Flame-Chase journey.
(Random outcome 2)
Mydei... is truly impressive.
You recall the leonine man. It's said that a lion's life is marked by many migrations, eventually settling far from where it was born...
Mydeimos, the new king of Kremnos, once gained companions and recognition in Okhema. Yet, for the sake of the world's future, he chose to leave and devote himself to endless war.
Perhaps it was precisely this honor and responsibility that allowed the homecoming wanderer to end the thousand-year Kremnoan tradition of being crowned in blood. Fate was indeed conquered by him.
Then, I wish he achieves victory in every fight.
(Random outcome 3)
The strange entity who attacked the Grove... who could they be?
You recall the masked swordmaster clad in black. It wasn't particularly powerful, but it was more bizarre than any enemy you've faced. Techniques that would normally secure victory failed repeatedly against it...
Could it be an embodiment of the black tide? Or perhaps the remnant of some Titan? If not for Mydei inheriting the divinity of "Strife" in time, that persistent foe might have kept pursuing you.
Now, it's been defeated. But like the Crocodile Boss in the "Clockie" series of cartoons, villains are hard to truly kill — they always seem to crawl back out of some unknown sewer.
It shouldn't be too troublesome... we've weathered far greater storms.

(After completing Witch's Mirrored Reversal)
Icon Dialogue Loupe Collect your thoughts
As you sit down, the light of the stars begins to ripple before you, the waves shine, and the air seems to resonate with echoes.
(Random outcome 1)
(Trailblazer): The soul... I never truly believed it existed.
You think of the Sage who smiled at his audience, and of his final performance. His theories were once branded as blasphemy, yet he unraveled one of the greatest mysteries of all — what exactly are we?
Though his body has long since crumbled to dust, his words still echo, powerful and unyielding. Whether they ignite a fire within you or sow confusion, the answer remains uncertain.
In this vast, endless Stellar Sea, it seems each world has scholars willing to trade their very lives for truth. They construct the path toward progress with their own bodies, indifferent to whether they fall before the first light of dawn.
(Trailblazer): Even in a New World, he will never cease his search.
(Random outcome 2)
(Trailblazer): Titan... Cyclicality...
Before he offered the spark, the sage who humbly called himself a fool unveiled the truth of the Era Nova: The New World is built upon the remnants of the old. The Titans, now revered and gazed upon from below, were once no more than mere mortals.
The good news is, the heroes' pursuit of Flame-Chase is no mere myth. But... if the Chrysos Heirs of the past have already completed their journey to recreate all things, then what has brought about the calamity of this age?
Is this world merely an endless cycle of rebirth? Is there truly a fate that guides all things? Whatever the truth may be, this journey has already revealed far more than expected.
(Trailblazer): Upon our return, Dan Heng's Data Bank will likely undergo a major update.
(Random outcome 3)
(Trailblazer): The nether realm... truly a sea of flowers.
You think of Castorice, "Daughter of the River of Souls." When you first arrived in Okhema, she almost led you into her gentle, flower-filled realm... until your skin touched hers, and you realized her embrace wouldn't bring you death after all.
Perhaps knowing that her touch would one day return to Nihility, she clung to leaving proof of her existence: Poems, dolls, flowers... as if packing memories into a satchel for a journey that was destined to lose it all.
Before you set off for the nether realm, she embraced you — no one but you could bear this parting. Even now, you can still hear her soft whispers in your ear, the faint scent of flowers lingering in the air.
(Trailblazer): I wonder when we'll meet again...

(After completing Dawn, Shine at the World's End)
Icon Dialogue Loupe Collect your thoughts
(Random outcome 1)
(Trailblazer): Where the rainbow falls... is your gaze there as well?
Looking at the stars shining in the center of the vortex, you think of the healer who is currently supporting the sky dome.
She heals wounds with her superb medical skills and mends scars with her gentle smile. She travels alone, shouldering the mission of returning to the sky... even though the blessings promised by the prophecy are but echoes of a curse.
No matter the world, there are always those who uphold a will to protect others, dreaming of the tomorrow that's yet to come.
(Trailblazer): She always bears the burden alone...
(Random outcome 2)
(Trailblazer): Cipher... I wonder if she's okay?
To protect the Coreflame of Kephale, Cipher delayed the Flame Reaver alone. But that black-robed swordmaster eventually returned to Okhema. Does this mean...
That light-footed thief has many ways of escaping. She wouldn't risk her life over something like this, right...? Would she really? But... if the prophecy is true... then only one person will ultimately witness the miracle...
"Gray Mystery, you don't really believe in this bluff, did you?" You seem to hear a familiar mocking laugh in your ear. But when you focus and listen closely, you hear nothing but the sound of waves intertwining.
(Trailblazer): That's right... even if it costs everything, we should take control of our own fate.
(Random outcome 3)
(Trailblazer): It's quiet now...
You recall the moment the Express Car crossed the clouds and was pierced by the long spear. That was the beginning of the adventure. After that, you witnessed the strife that burnt out humanity's blood and walked through the sea of flowers under the moonlight... until now, when the stars that govern Amphoreus' fate are slowly lighting up.
Under that starlight, the vortex seems to be quietly pulled by a vast and tranquil force, silently swallowing the waves on the water's surface. It never responds to your gaze, nor is it ever moved by your thoughts.
Is every journey destined to begin in noise and end in tranquility? You have a premonition that the story isn't over yet, and you will be the one to witness how a new story begins.
(Trailblazer): That is the mission of the Nameless, isn't it?

(After completing Hero, Sing That Anthem of Creation)
Icon Dialogue Loupe Collect your thoughts
You stare out at the dazzling light in the distance, your thoughts tangled and restless. After everything you've been through, this place just can't calm your mind anymore.
Maybe it's time to clear your head somewhere else, like... a quiet little village beyond this world?
