(Trailblazer): Turns out, the meeting to decide the future of Penacony went much smoother than expected... with little debate.
(Trailblazer): The Charmony Festival's opening ceremony is starting soon. I should head down and take a look.

(Optional) Chat with the guests (0/5)[]

UI Trailblaze Mission Mission Description

The Charmony Festival is about to begin, and you've pretty much completely cleared out the Radiant Feldspar...
What, you said you wanted a sense of participation? Well then, there's still a while before the opening ceremony commences. You may as well take a stroll around. Find a seat if you're tired and hold tight for the opening ceremony.
(Trailblazer): (This airship has quite a few treasures, a bountiful harvest...)
(Talk to Boothill and Aventurine, optional)
Boothill: ...Remember, I can take you out with just one shot whenever I choose.
Aventurine: That'd be my honor... Don't worry. I hate cheating at the table.
Boothill: Hmph... You better.
Aventurine: Look who's here! The great hero of the Astral Express, the most dazzling (Trailblazer) in all of Penacony!
Boothill: Oh, you're here too? Long time no see, friend.
Icon Dialogue Arrow What are you guys whispering about?
Aventurine: Merely a greeting of platitudes. As long as you and I have an understanding.
Icon Dialogue Arrow Do you always compliment everyone you meet, Aventurine?
Aventurine: Merely a greeting of platitudes. As long as you and I have an understanding.
Icon Dialogue Arrow Why are you on the IPC's side now, cowboy?
Boothill: This fella... is also tracking down that son of a gun. What's that saying again? "The enemy of my enemy is my friend."
Boothill: Let's set aside those under-the-table dealings for now, partner. Don't wanna spoil the festive mood of the Charmony Festival.
Aventurine: I agree. Now let's congratulate (Mr./Miss) (Trailblazer). I hear The Family intends to thank the crew at the Charmony Festival. *sigh* It's a real pity I can't personally be there to witness this.
Icon Dialogue Talk You sure left in a hurry, Aventurine.
Aventurine: My job was just to give the IPC an opening. Other things aside, I think I did a pretty good job at achieving this.
Aventurine: While you were at Dreamflux Reef, we were actually close by. We wouldn't have been able to dig up so much dirty information without the help of a knowledgeable friend.
Aventurine: But that Emanator didn't pull any punches... My body couldn't hold out too long, otherwise this would have been settled in a much cleaner manner.
Icon Dialogue Talk I'd like to thank you for all your help in the battle, cowboy.
Boothill: Hah, no problem. Punishing the wicked and eradicating evil is a top priority, would've been strange if we sat it out.
Boothill: Makin' an entrance like that, us Galaxy Rangers are makin' a comeback. Reckon you'll meet quite a few followers of The Hunt on your journey, do me a favor and pass on my regards will you?
Icon Dialogue Talk What were you guys chatting about?
Boothill: Forget it. I'm not one to beat around the bush. I've got a score to settle with a high-ranking executive fella named Oswaldo SchneiderHead of Marketing Development. And this flamboyant fella here can help me find him.
Aventurine: The feud between the Marketing Development Department and the Strategic Investment Department is well-known across the cosmos. But what I didn't expect was the involvement of the Galaxy Rangers in this feud.
Aventurine: Looks like... things are about to get spicy.
Icon Dialogue Arrow I hope you guys have fun at the festival.
Boothill: Thank you, and I also hope you enjoy yourself, great hero of Penacony!
Aventurine: I'll pass, but I do hope you guys have fun. If you don't mind, let's play a few rounds next time.
(Talk to Boothill again, optional)
Boothill: It's time to let down our hair and enjoy ourselves on days like this — I hope you can enjoy yourself to the fullest, oh, great hero of Penacony!

(Talk to Dr. Ratio, optional)
Dr. Ratio: Ah, yes, I remember you. Your performance at Herta's space station was... adequate, I suppose.
Dr. Ratio: Hm, no wonder that gambler likes you so much.
Icon Dialogue Arrow I didn't know you were here, too.
Dr. Ratio: The Intelligentsia Guild assigned me to be an invigilator for the IPC's ambassadors. Hmph, nothing more than an errand from the Office of Academic Affairs.
Icon Dialogue Arrow Do you know Aventurine?
Dr. Ratio: This individual is my responsibility during the trip. Hmph, nothing more than an errand from the Office of Academic Affairs.
Icon Dialogue Arrow Can I please get your autograph, Dr. Ratio!
Dr. Ratio: Do not try to emulate that gambler's penchant for attempting to be overly clever. I'll let it go this time, but this won't happen again.
Dr. Ratio: Very well, the Charmony Festival is about to commence soon. Take advantage of this unique opportunity, a blend of work and play is essential for superior knowledge absorption.
Icon Dialogue Talk How do you rate Aventurine?
Dr. Ratio: The executives of the IPC and the Guild say that we are strategic partners. Yet, from my perspective, I am invariably the teacher, and he, along with you and every other individual, is the student.
Dr. Ratio: From this perspective, Aventurine isn't what you'd call an ideal student, yet he's also not utterly obtuse. Alas, the void within him can never be filled by talent and knowledge. Let's hope he doesn't turn into a philosophical zombie.
Icon Dialogue Talk I thought you were going to make me get my act together.
Dr. Ratio: Ah, saying such a thing merely indicates that you have not truly grasped the essence of learning.
Dr. Ratio: The principle of balancing work and relaxation is scientifically grounded, with the relevant proof process detailed on page 21 of the 31467th issue of the academic journal Starseizer. Acquiring knowledge aims to enhance living. Don't invert priorities like those dolts at the Guild.
Icon Dialogue Arrow I hope you have fun at the festival.
Dr. Ratio: Hmph, then you'll excuse me.
(Talk to Dr. Ratio again, optional)
Dr. Ratio: I detest noisy gatherings, as they intrude upon my thoughts... What a waste of time.

(Talk to Topaz and Numby, optional)
Topaz: Well if it isn't (Trailblazer)? It hasn't been long, and yet here we are again. How are you?
Numby: Oink... oink!
Icon Dialogue Arrow Life is as wonderful as ever.
Topaz: Hah, that's what I thought! I heard you guys pulled off a big stunt, cutting down the Oak Family in one fell swoop.
Topaz: Such a pity I couldn't be there, or else I would have lent a helping hand.
Icon Dialogue Arrow Dead tired.
Topaz: Hah, that's what I thought! I heard you guys pulled off a big stunt, cutting down the Oak Family in one fell swoop.
Topaz: Such a pity I couldn't be there, or else I would have lent a helping hand.
Icon Dialogue Arrow I'm in the mood for a job change.
Topaz: Hmm? So direct. Aren't you afraid I might take you seriously?
Topaz: Thinking about it though, the lives of the Nameless are so excessively exciting. I heard you guys pulled off a big stunt, cutting down the Oak Family in one fell swoop.
Topaz: If one day you're tired and looking for a change in work environment or you want a desk job, just contact me!
Topaz: Look at how bustling this ship is, not bad! Someday when I'm less tied up, I plan to host a grand party on my eco-ship, and you'll all be on the guest list.
Icon Dialogue Arrow I wanna ask you a question about that transform...
Icon Dialogue Arrow ...Are you also able to transform yourself?
Topaz: Trans... form? What are you saying?
Topaz: Oh... I understand now. You're referring to Aventurine's Cornerstone right? Sorry, compared to him, my ability is not as "visual."
Topaz: Guess there's no harm telling you. The abilities of the Ten Stonehearts' cornerstones are all different. Some can even read your thoughts, grasp your desires... So be careful...
Topaz: Now that I think about it, it was good that Bronya got there when she did in Belobog — if she came any later, we probably wouldn't have ended up as friends~
(Talk to Topaz again, optional)
Topaz: Look at how bustling this ship is, not bad! Someday when I'm less tied up, I plan to host a grand party on my eco-ship, and you'll be on the guest list.

(Talk to Jade, optional)
Jade: Hey there, lively (guy/lady)! Welcome to the Bonajade Exchange.
Jade: What should I call you?
Icon Dialogue Arrow My name is (Trailblazer).
Jade: What a unique name.
Jade: So, (Mr./Miss) (Trailblazer), what do you wish for? And what are you willing to sacrifice for it?
Icon Dialogue Arrow My name is March 7th.
Jade: No problem. Let's just use this name.
Jade: So, (Mr./Miss) March 7th — What do you wish for? And what are you willing to sacrifice for it?
Icon Dialogue Arrow My name is... Sunday.
Jade: Hmm... Not a bad name, just lacking in virtue.
Jade: So, (Mr./Miss) Sunday, what do you wish for? And what are you willing to sacrifice for it?
Icon Dialogue Arrow Make Nanook bow down to me!
Icon Dialogue Arrow I want to be the CEO of the IPC!
Icon Dialogue Arrow Revive Akivili!
Jade: Oh... This is your wish?
Lady Bonajade doesn't even blink. You're guessing she doesn't have any sense of humor.
Jade: Sounds simple enough. Very pragmatic. Then, let's discuss the cost.
Icon Dialogue Arrow I'm listening...
Icon Dialogue Arrow No way. This is the endgame already?
Jade: I wouldn't be too worried.
Jade: To fulfill this wish, the thing I need is simple: The tail of an animal.
Icon Dialogue Arrow Sounds easy enough.
Icon Dialogue Arrow What animal?
Jade: Well, it's a two-legged animal... With black fur, a round head, and long ears, it's omnivorous and is prone to mood swings. Most importantly, it has mastered the human language and can communicate.
Jade: Bring its tail to me as collateral and your dreams will come true.
It seems that "Lady Bonajade" is not without a sense of humor... You have to admit, her skill in using dark humor is superior to yours.
...Hopefully, there are scissors on the Express.
Jade: May fate bring us together again, (Mr./Miss) (Trailblazer).
(Talk to Jade again, optional)
Jade: May fate bring us together again, (Mr./Miss) (Trailblazer).
Lady Bonajade stares at you, seemingly piercing through all your desires and thoughts.

(Talk to Argenti, optional)
Argenti: We meet again, my dear friend. Your journey of the Beauty is even more elegant than mine. My most sincere regards to you!
Icon Dialogue Arrow Sincere regards to you too, dear friend.
Argenti: Even after achieving such remarkable feats, you remain humble and gentle... Such is the true mark of knightly grace!
Icon Dialogue Arrow You flatter me too much...
Argenti: How could it be? The Beauty holds no bias. My words are fair and just.
Icon Dialogue Arrow When will I be able to unlock a new Path then?
Argenti: Unlock? An eloquent and picturesque choice of words, yet you have already set forth on the Path of Beauty
Argenti: I have heard of your valiant deed in leading others to vanquish the Omen of Evil. Though the tale bears a tinge of regret, you have undoubtedly championed Beauty and justice. May Idrila smile upon you.
Icon Dialogue Talk The Omen of Evil?
Argenti: If an admirer of the Beauty gets lost in the pursuit of power, they risk descending into "the Omen of Evil," a form which is neither human nor beast.
Argenti: Although Mr. Sunday did not cross paths with the Path of Beauty, his actions were no different from the Omen of Evil. A lamentable soul lost on the path of righteousness... truly a matter of deep regret.
Icon Dialogue Talk Why were you not there during the final battle?
Argenti: I'm ashamed to admit, Ena's dream was too realistic. I couldn't bear to bid farewell to a fallen friend, who had long turned into a beast. I lingered in that illusory dream for far too long... Ah, his voice and smile were too vivid.
Argenti: I didn't pass the trial of Beauty this time, spending much time in self-reflection over my own hesitation. Yet I wish for Idrila to remain my beacon, a banner for me to strengthen my determination for the Beauty.
Icon Dialogue Arrow I hope you have fun at the festival.
Argenti: Thank you, and may the Beauty always be with you!
(Talk to Argenti again, optional)
Argenti: Thank you, and may the Beauty always be with you!

Wait for the opening of the Charmony Festival[]

UI Trailblaze Mission Step Description

Just as you are about to take a seat, a familiar voice grabs hold of your attention — it's Firefly.
She seems to have something to say to you... After all, so much has happened, so she must have all kinds of complex feelings that she wants to share with you. There's still time — chat with her.
(Approach the seat)
(Trailblazer): (The festival hasn't started. Let's take a quick break...)
???: Hi, we meet again.
(Trailblazer): (Who's that...)
Firefly: It's really you. I knew I didn't get the wrong person.
Icon Dialogue Arrow You saw me?
Firefly: Yes, it's just I didn't get the chance to say hello. There's still some time before Charmony Festival starts. Do you want to chat?
Icon Dialogue Arrow You mistook some else for me?
Firefly: It was you. I saw you opening treasure chests, hitting balloons, and playing the Dreamy Slots. I don't think I'm mistaken... right?
Firefly: There's still some time before Charmony Festival starts. Do you want to chat?
You walk and talk with Firefly, stopping in your tracks when more comes into view.
Firefly: ...Two murder cases, a showdown with the IPC's ambassadors, the legacy of the Nameless, and a remnant of the Order who wishes to replace an Aeon-created paradise with a dream — you guys even ended up shattering the dream... It's truly been quite a vacation.
Firefly: It's a good thing that you guys managed to overcome all those difficult problems. Congratulations! After the Charmony Festival's opening, will you guys be leaving again?
Icon Dialogue Arrow I don't know where our next destination will be.
Icon Dialogue Arrow I'm not sure if we'll be able to depart smoothly.
Firefly: There will always be somewhere. After all, you guys are on the Path of the Trailblaze...
Firefly: Before joining the Stellaron Hunters, Elio told me that this journey will tell me how to live on. That's all he said. As for the rest, it's up to me to find out.
Firefly: So, I'll pay extra attention to any leads that will let me live on. This trip to Penacony is no different.
Icon Dialogue Arrow No wonder you were interested in investigating the Watchmaker.
Firefly: Yes... sadly I was looking in the wrong place. But I did reap some rewards.
Icon Dialogue Arrow Looks like you didn't get what you wanted this time.
Firefly: Yes... Initially, I thought that the answer might lie with the riddle of the Watchmaker. I was looking in the wrong place, but I did reap some rewards.
Firefly: Do you know Miss Jade from the IPC's Strategic Investment Department? Bonajade Exchange belongs to her.
Firefly: She told me her price, but...
Icon Dialogue Arrow Did you take the deal?
Firefly: No. But what she wanted wasn't my answer either.
Icon Dialogue Arrow Don't take the deal. Those IPC people may have ulterior motives.
Firefly: I know. But what she wanted wasn't my answer either.
Firefly: Of course I want to live on, but... what fate owes me, I want it paid back, not passed on. No one else should be involved, because this is a grudge between me and fate.
Firefly: Ah, speaking of which... Actually, I feel that I still owe you a formal apology, for... that matter with "the performer of the Iris Family."
Firefly: Even the smallest of lies can turn into a betrayal as sharp as a blade... I'm sorry, (Trailblazer).
Icon Dialogue Arrow I never felt hurt by this.
Firefly: Really? Then it seems... what Kafka taught me was correct.
Icon Dialogue Arrow No problem. You've already apologized.
Firefly: It was an emergency, so I never had the chance to formally apologize to you, and admittedly, I was the one to blame.
Icon Dialogue Arrow You shouldn't have lied to me in the beginning.
Firefly: Yes, and for that, I'm sorry.
Firefly: To me, hiding is much easier than being honest... yet, I still want to try expressing my emotions as any ordinary person would...
Composed Bloodhound Family Member: It's that girl! Get moving! Arrest that criminal before the Charmony Festival's opening ceremony starts!
Firefly: I can't believe they've chased me this far... Looks like we'll have to say our goodbyes. Don't worry about me. Just go and enjoy the ceremony!
Firefly: The "script" hasn't reached its end yet — we will meet again!
(Trailblazer): (I hope she's okay... But if it's only those two Hounds again, she'll probably be fine.)
(Trailblazer): (I'll send a message later to check in on her. Let's go attend the Charmony Festival first.)
(Interact with the seat)
(Trailblazer): (Let's take a seat here...)
(If the player has not yet spoken with all guests)
(Trailblazer): (Why do I feel like there's someone waiting for me... I probably have enough time, maybe I should take a walk?)
(If the player has already spoken with all guests)
(Trailblazer): (Everything is settled... But there's still some time left. Maybe I should take a walk?)
Icon Dialogue Arrow Wait for the opening ceremony to start.
(Trailblazer): (Forget it, I've done enough walking around already. Let's take a seat and rest for a while...)
Icon Dialogue Exit I feel like walking around.
(Trailblazer): (Let's keep walking...)
(Exits dialogue)

Sticker PPG 15 Firefly 03
(Trailblazer): (Looks like I don't have to worry about her. Let's wait for the opening ceremony to start...)
Some time later...
(Screen remains black)
Guests: Wow, it's Miss Robin!
Guests: Miss Robin! Miss Robin! Marry me, Miss Robin! Glory to The Family! Glory to The Family!
(Screen fades in from black)
Robin: Distinguished guests, fellow Family members, ladies, gentlemen and friends from all over the cosmos —
Robin: It's a pleasure to join you all in celebrating the grandest ceremony of the Amber Era, the Charmony Festival. Firstly, on behalf of the Penacony Family's five major lineages...
Robin: And on behalf... of myself, I'd like to extend a warm welcome to all our guests!
Robin: As you all may have noticed, this year's Charmony Festival is far from regular. Thanks to the efforts of everyone, this celebration is unprecedented in scale, with factions from across the cosmos in attendance...
Robin: Not only that, the customary opening ceremony held at the Penacony Grand Theater has now moved to the Radiant Feldspar — the very airship you all stand upon.
Robin: We invite you to express your warmest applause and deepest appreciation for Oti Alfalfa — head of the Alfalfa Family — for his selfless devotion to the Harmony's cause!
Robin: What makes this festival so uniquely significant? As is widely known, the Radiant Feldspar had to halt its voyage due to an anomaly in the sweet dream, sparking widespread discussion in the Twelve Hours...
Robin: But thanks to the hard work of Penacony's internal and external factions, we've finally gotten the Dreamscape back on track, just in time for the Charmony Festival. And as they say, good things come in pairs. The Charmony Festival not only celebrates this achievement but also marks the relaunch of the Radiant Feldspar.
Robin: And finally, the last reason. Does everyone remember the Watchmaker? In truth, The Family has poured their efforts into this festival just to commemorate this legendary luminary...
Robin: The father of Penacony, Mikhail Char Legwork, one of the legendary Nameless who laid the foundations of Penacony!
Robin: In the most bewildering times of the Planet of Festivities, it was he who descended from the sky with his companions, who taught us through Trailblazing where freedom lies. It was also they who led the vanguard in the pioneering of the Dreamscape, in exchange for what is now known as the paradise of Harmony.
Robin: It can be said that Penacony's splendid success today is deeply rooted in the Trailblazing ethos the Watchmaker planted within us. Only by honoring this Trailblazing spirit can we fulfill our mission and spread Harmony to a broader audience.
March 7th: Aww... That's so nice of her. She's talking about us!
Icon Dialogue Arrow We haven't even been mentioned yet...
March 7th: Oh, come on! It doesn't matter if she's talking about the old or new generation, we're all still a part of the Astral Express family!
Icon Dialogue Arrow Our Trailblazing spirit is unparalleled!
March 7th: That's right! Unparalleled!
Icon Dialogue Arrow The Express crew would've been disbanded long ago if it weren't for you!
March 7th: Obviously! Wait! Why does that seem so ominous...
Robin: And now the sweet dream is back on track, all thanks to the Trailblaze, of course. If it weren't for everyone on the Astral Express, we wouldn't be able to successfully host this Charmony Festival.
Robin: Thus, with unanimous consent from the five major lineages, Penacony's Family — on behalf of all family members throughout the cosmos, offer a token of appreciation to the Nameless.
March 7th: Oooh... I wonder if it's gonna be a big one?!
Robin: ...We will transfer ownership of the Radiant Feldspar to the Astral Express! A meager appreciation that we hope you will accept with grace.
Robin: Let us gift our applause and cheers to these brave and dauntless Nameless!
Guests: Nameless! Nameless! Nameless!
Robin: And now, I propose a toast...
Robin: To Harmony, to the Trailblaze, to the future of Penacony and the universe, and to the generous Alfalfa Family Head, Mr. Oti Alfalfa...
Robin: ...Cheers!
(A cutscene plays)
Old Oti: To make a decision like that... This little bird is no less capable than her brother!
Sparkle: All's well that ends well... right?
Sparkle: But have you forgotten someone, my gray-haired friend?
Sparkle: I put a bomb on this ship.
Sparkle: You have ten minutes to find it — better hurry!

Find the bombs based on "Sparkle's Wondrous Treasure Map" (0/999)[]

UI Trailblaze Mission Step Description

As expected, something unexpected happened during the opening of the Charmony Festival: That laughter-worshiping girl had painstakingly laid out buttons everywhere obviously for precisely this moment.
999 imaginary neutron bombs... seriously, how on earth did she get her hands on so many weapons of mass destruction? But in any case, as one of the Nameless, you are duty-bound to stand up and protect the Dreamjoy: Follow the clues and overcome the crisis as soon as possible.
Sparkle's Wondrous Treasure Map
(Trailblazer): (When did this get shoved into my hands...?!)
(Trailblazer): (There are still so many bombs... Now's not the time for plot twists! I can't handle this alone — time to create a group and inform everyone.)

All right, down to business!
Is everyone flabbergasted yet? Weren't Miss Sparkle's buttons all confiscated already? Why is the bomb timer still active?
Actually, all credit goes to our brave Hounds! Thanks to their meticulous efforts in gathering the buttons, Miss Sparkle was able to press all of them one by one~
Miss Sparkle's certainly worked her finger to the bone... Pressing through a whopping 100,000 buttons, she spent a whole 48 system hours on it!

(Investigate to the "Constable" Doll)
"Constable" Doll: You've finally arrived, O great gray haired little one! I am the constable around these parts, and right now I'm posing as a bomb!
Icon Dialogue Arrow You're not very good at character design, are you?
"Constable" Doll: What do you know? This is called foreshadowing!
Icon Dialogue Arrow Bombs are playable characters now?
"Constable" Doll: You don't like it? Fine. I'm now the Bomb Demon then.
"Bomb Devil" Doll: Satisfied? If not, you'll just have to make do. All right. Now that you've found me, it's my turn to complete my mission. Next, I'll count down from five, and then explode!
"Bomb Devil" Doll: Five...
"Bomb Devil" Doll: Four...
"Bomb Devil" Doll: One...!
Icon Dialogue Arrow Where's three?
Icon Dialogue Arrow Where's two?
"Bomb Devil" Doll: Did I miss a number? Oh, so I did. No matter though, I've never learned how to count before — I mean, Bomb Demon doll has never learned how to count.
"Bomb Devil" Doll: I'm not even a real bomb! Was it surprising, shocking, horrifying? No? Really? Fine. That's too bad then. You really ought to learn how to win a girl over!
(Exits dialogue)
Icon Dialogue Arrow Great gray haired little one? So am I great, or little?
"Constable" Doll: I'm about to explode, and that's all you're concerned about?
"Constable" Doll: All right. Now that you've found me, it's my turn to complete my mission. Next, I'll count down from five, and then explode!
"Constable" Doll: Five...
"Constable" Doll: Four...
"Constable" Doll: One...!
Icon Dialogue Arrow Where's three?
Icon Dialogue Arrow Where's two?
"Constable" Doll: Is it really that important? I'm not even a real bomb!
"Constable" Doll: Was it surprising, shocking, horrifying? No? Really? Fine. That's too bad then. You really ought to learn how to win a girl over!
This "Constable" Doll finally falls silent. You open it up (more like tear it apart, though that sounds cruel) and uncover its true nature — a mere toy equipped with a remote speaker.

(Investigate to the "Sheriff" Doll)
"Sheriff" Doll: Oh, by the Laughter, to think you've seen through my disguise this quickly! Honestly, my dear (Mr./Miss) Gray Hair, you're just like that ferocious pangolin in Madam Susan's bedroom!
Icon Dialogue Arrow Enough talk, let me defuse the bomb!
"Sheriff" Doll: Keep your shirt on! A watched pot never boils, (Mister/Miss)!
Icon Dialogue Arrow What exactly have I seen through...?
"Sheriff" Doll: Oh my, your acting prowess is almost on par with Miss Sparkle! But you still can't fool me!
Icon Dialogue Arrow Why does she have a pangolin in her bedroom?
"Sheriff" Doll: Hmph, how shameful! Did Uncle Parker not teach you properly? One must pose appropriate questions at the appropriate time!
"Sheriff" Doll: I'm on to you! You're here because you accepted bribes from the duplicitous and corrupt leader of that Sparkle Gang, the scoundrel who wants to become mayor of Sparkle City — Blazin' Bro!
"Sheriff" Doll: This evil city has fallen into depravity! As the Sheriff Doll, I cannot idly stand by and do nothing! And now, only this imaginary neutron bomb can completely cleanse Sparkle City of your ilk!
"Sheriff" Doll: If you wish to defeat me, you'll have to face off against the great Sparkle's dogs — they're my fiercely loyal companions, and you'll never defeat them!
(Begin battle against Dreamjolt Troupe's Bubble Hound Dreamjolt Troupe's Bubble Hound ×2, Dreamjolt Troupe's Fortune Seller Dreamjolt Troupe's Fortune Seller ×2)
(After the battle)
"Sheriff" Doll: To think I was defeated by the despicable underling of Blazin' Bro... You'll never get away with this. Because I'm just an adorable doll, not some imaginary neutron bomb!
The "Sheriff" doll lets out a long sigh and, with its exquisite acting, feigns death. Unfortunately, the imaginary neutron bomb isn't here, it's best to look elsewhere.

(Investigate the "Detective" Doll)
"Detective" Doll: Ha, we meet again, (Trailblazer). I am Penacony's famed detective.
"Detective" Doll: Got yourself into a pickle? I'm more than happy to help, but unfortunately, I'm preoccupied with a couple of unsolved cases... So, you'll have to wait your turn.
Icon Dialogue Arrow I just need that bomb in your hands.
Icon Dialogue Arrow You're telling me your case is related to the bomb?
Icon Dialogue Arrow I need your help finding a bomb.
"Detective" Doll: Bomb? Drat... It completely slipped my mind: Dr. Boom specializes in explosives!
"Detective" Doll: I need your help, (Mr./Miss) (Trailblazer). You've had quite a few run-ins with Dr. Boom, and with the recent bomb situation, you're bound to find evidence that proves Dr. Boom is the killer.
"Detective" Doll: The first case is the SoulGlad factory arson case. We found a hammer, a doll and half a liter of an unidentified fluid at the scene of the crime. Our forensics results showed it's a red herring.
"Detective" Doll: The second case is the Blue Hour auction robbery. A gang of masked thugs broke in, stole a fragment of the Astral Express, and left behind a large hammer, a doll, and a half-dead red herring at the scene.
"Detective" Doll: Those are all the details. The way I see it, there must be a link between these two cases that will be key to exposing Dr. Boom.
"Detective" Doll: I trust in your deduction. Which piece of evidence do you think is the deciding one?
Icon Dialogue Arrow The hammer...?
"Detective" Doll: Bzzt — Wrong answer! The hammer is a murder weapon, but these two cases aren't murder cases!
"Detective" Doll: Oh Gray Hair, Gray Hair, it's been so long, but you haven't changed at all. I'm sorely disappointed...
"Detective" Doll: But, seeing as you've put in so much effort, I'll throw you a bone: The bomb's not here. This is only a prank I've craftily set up. Hurry, time's running out. You'd better find that real bomb quickly!
Icon Dialogue Arrow The doll...?
"Detective" Doll: Bzzt — Wrong answer! The dolls at the two scenes are modeled after Dr. Boom and Dr. Bloom respectively — they're not the same!
"Detective" Doll: Oh Gray Hair, Gray Hair, it's been so long, but you haven't changed at all. I'm sorely disappointed...
"Detective" Doll: But, seeing as you've put in so much effort, I'll throw you a bone: The bomb's not here. This is only a prank I've craftily set up. Hurry, time's running out. You'd better find that real bomb quickly!
Icon Dialogue Arrow The red herring...?
"Detective" Doll: Bzzt — Wrong answer! A "red herring" is a fake clue to misdirect. It's not meant to be evidence!
"Detective" Doll: Oh Gray Hair, Gray Hair, it's been so long, but you haven't changed at all. I'm sorely disappointed...
"Detective" Doll: But, seeing as you've put in so much effort, I'll throw you a bone: The bomb's not here. This is only a prank I've craftily set up. Hurry, time's running out. You'd better find that real bomb quickly!
Icon Dialogue Arrow The bomb...?
"Detective" Doll: Bzzt — Wrong answer! These two cases don't mention bombs. Are you imagining things?
"Detective" Doll: Oh Gray Hair, Gray Hair, it's been so long, but you haven't changed at all. I'm sorely disappointed...
"Detective" Doll: But, seeing as you've put in so much effort, I'll throw you a bone: The bomb's not here. This is only a prank I've craftily set up. Hurry, time's running out. You'd better find that real bomb quickly!
Icon Dialogue Arrow It's you! You were at both crime scenes!
"Detective" Doll: Bing bing — Correct answer! You're good, Gray Hair. Your mind is pretty sharp!
"Detective" Doll: Seeing as you've put in so much effort, I'll throw you a bone: The bomb's not here, this is only a prank I've craftily set up. Hurry, time's running out. You'd better find that real bomb quickly!
Sparkle's voice faded, leaving behind the doll's body buzzing with white noise. It seems this pitiful doll was transformed into a megaphone by Sparkle.

(Investigate the "Trashcan" Doll)
"Trashcan" Doll: Welcome, human. I am an Aeonic Intelligence DroidheadNous answering machine, also very likely an imaginary neutron bomb.
"Trashcan" Doll: If you can answer the only question I have for you correctly, you can open up my lid to check if I'm really a bomb or not. If I am, I will initiate my automated shutdown sequence to avert danger.
Icon Dialogue Arrow Bring it on!
"Trashcan" Doll: Fortune favors the bold, and I respect you for it.
Icon Dialogue Arrow It's not gonna be that same old riddle again, is it...
"Trashcan" Doll: I'll be honest and tell you: It's not.
Icon Dialogue Arrow You're obviously just a trash can.
"Trashcan" Doll: You have to look past the surface to see my true essence, and my essence is within this can.
"Trashcan" Doll: Listen up! What creature has four legs in the morning, two legs at noon, and three legs in the evening?
Icon Dialogue Arrow People.
Icon Dialogue Arrow Bugs.
Icon Dialogue Arrow Sweet Dreams Troupe.
Icon Dialogue Arrow A trashcan.
Icon Dialogue Arrow Sparkle, it's Sparkle!
"Trashcan" Doll: Correct answer! But, it's a shame...
"Trashcan" Doll: I hate smartypants!
(Begin battle against Lordly Trashcan Lordly Trashcan ×1)
(After the battle)
You have passed the trial of the "Trashcan" doll. As expected, a doll that looks like Sparkle lies at the bottom of the can. Regrettably, it is nothing more than a clump of cotton, devoid of any projectile or aggregative firing devices and their combinations.

(Investigate the "Fool" Doll)
"Fool" Doll: Hello, I'm a bomb! There's still some time before I explode, so you can take a look around first!
Icon Dialogue Arrow I'm here to defuse you.
"Fool" Doll: Defuse? No problem! Executing self-defusing program — this won't take long!
Icon Dialogue Arrow All right. I'll go take a look around then.
"Fool" Doll: That's no problem of course! But if you don't want to go too far, I can also play a soothing tune for you in case you get bored!
Icon Dialogue Arrow Can I just wait around here for a moment?
"Fool" Doll: We do not have this function called "Wait Around"! But it's no problem — to ease any boredom during your wait, I can play a soothing song for you!
"Fool" Doll: Now playing Never Give Up, Never Surrender by the trending superstar Ast Rickley from the Epsilon XII System...
"Fool" Doll: ...Oh, hang on, Penacony's Family have not purchased the rights to this song — we can't play it here. How about this, I'll recite it for you — next up, please enjoy a recital of Never Give Up, Never Surrender!
"Fool" Doll: "O Aha! If you ask me how I feel about you, don't tell me that you pretend not to see!"
"Fool" Doll: "THEY will never give you up, never make you sad! THEY will never give you up, never make you cry!"
"Fool" Doll: "THEY will never say goodbye to you, never tell lies to hurt you — praise Aha!"
After the almost tearful exclamation of "Praise Aha!" comes to pass, all that's left in the doll's mouth is that lingering echoes of an irritating cassette tape. Turns out that it isn't a bomb after all, but a vintage tape recorder.

(Investigate the "Outlaw" Doll)
"Outlaw" Doll: Welcome to the Radiant Feldspar, good (sir/lady)! I am a dangerous bomb, and an outlaw who despises law and order. May you have a splendid day!
Icon Dialogue Arrow You're pretty polite.
"Outlaw" Doll: Thank you, (mister/miss), but courtesy doesn't hide my hazardous lunacy. If you're unconvinced, let me show you: Go fudge yourself, you muddle-fudger!
Icon Dialogue Arrow I'm guessing you're also not a real bomb.
"Outlaw" Doll: I'm not, but so what? I'm still crazy and dangerous. In case you don't believe me, allow me to show you: Go fudge yourself, you muddle-fudger!
Icon Dialogue Arrow You don't look or sound that dangerous.
"Outlaw" Doll: Really? Fork you. If you think this isn't intense enough, I don't mind showing you what real danger and madness look like.
"Outlaw" Doll: To be frank, I didn't become an outlaw because I'm a fudgin' bomb. It's because I'm the fudgin' owner of an ancient, mad, forbidden curse.
"Outlaw" Doll: Care to experience it? I can chant it for you, but Miss Sparkle won't be responsible for any of the consequences.
Icon Dialogue Arrow Let's see what you've got!
"Outlaw" Doll: Holy fudge, you're more insane than I am! Let me gather my wits...
Icon Dialogue Arrow Forget it. I value my life too much.
"Outlaw" Doll: Oh? You scared, lil' fudgehead? It's too late, I tell you! You've already opened Pandora's box...
"Outlaw" Doll: ...The ritual is ready. Perk up your ears and listen closely to the most ancient, primal fear etched into the very fudgin' genes of humanity—
"Outlaw" Doll: Bloomska, boomska, little sparkleeesss!!! Bloomska, boomska, little sparkleeesss!!!
The striking resemblance to the voice of the legendary Penaconian cartoon character "Clockie" instantly rings an alarm within you! The profound muscle memory from ancient times prompts you to swing your arms in a wide arc, catapulting the doll into the heavens.
If the doll's words just now are not false, then indeed there won't be an imaginary neutron bomb exploding on the surface at Golden Hour. No need to worry...?

(Investigate the "Memey the Imp" Doll)
"Memey the Imp" Doll: Hello, human. We meet again. I never thought I'd see you here.
"Memey the Imp" Doll: I'm currently on this luxury cruise ship enjoying Penacony's consumer-friendly sugar-coated cannonballs. What about you? Are you just seeing the sights?
Icon Dialogue Arrow I'm here to defuse a bomb.
"Memey the Imp" Doll: Bomb? Gosh, I'm not a bomb.
Icon Dialogue Arrow Have we met somewhere?
"Memey the Imp" Doll: If you've been to the Xianzhou Luofu, it's likely we've met.
Icon Dialogue Arrow You remind me of an old acquaintance.
"Memey the Imp" Doll: Old acquaintance? I'm not even human.
"Memey the Imp" Doll: I'm a heliobus, originally from the Luofu's Fyxestroll Garden. I'm passionate about researching Xianzhou subcultures, but I've slowly come to realize that Xianzhou subcultures also have their limits.
"Memey the Imp" Doll: I forgot what happened, but anyway, I ended up in Penacony. I wanted to study a subculture that is completely different from the Xianzhou's, and boy it's really been an eye-opening experience — that is, if I had eyes.
"Memey the Imp" Doll: I've come to realize, the people here don't treat subcultures as actual culture. They call them me... me...
Icon Dialogue Arrow Memes?
Icon Dialogue Arrow Mesmerizing antagonists?
"Memey the Imp" Doll: Yes meme, that's it. They even have forms. I'm good friends with a meme with sharp teeth and claws. It's very interested in the Xianzhou Vidyadhara culture. I gave it a Xianzhou name, and it was delighted.
"Memey the Imp" Doll: Oh, speaking of which, I should go and look for it. Memey the Monster has an explosive temper, and it's never been very patient.
"Memey the Imp" Doll: I hope you can find the real sugar-coated cannonball — I mean, bomb. Bye bye!
A wisp of green smoke emerges from the doll's body, and then it lies motionless. It seems this isn't a real imaginary neutron bomb either.

(Investigate the "Director" Doll)
"Director" Doll: Hello, lovely actor. You can call me the Director Doll. I often use this name in film credits.
"Director" Doll: If you didn't know, I'm the one who directed the entire farce in Penacony. As the leading (man/lady) of the show, what did you think? Feel free to share your thoughts...
"Director" Doll: ...Well, actually, due to current plot requirements, you're only allowed to say one line. So, please try and resist the urge to share your thoughts.
Icon Dialogue Arrow Right now, I just want to defuse the bomb and advance the plot.
"Director" Doll: Really? You really have no questions? Okay then, what a pity.
Icon Dialogue Arrow You're the one who made Sunday a villain?
"Director" Doll: Sunday? Who's that?
Icon Dialogue Arrow What about the action scene where Acheron had to escape The Family?
"Director" Doll: Acheron? Who's that?
Icon Dialogue Arrow What happened to Robin's journey of uncovering the truth?
"Director" Doll: Robin? Who's that?
Icon Dialogue Arrow You have way too many storyline transitions!
"Director" Doll: *sigh* It's all my fault for being duped by the Masked Fools! This screenplay was written by someone named "Miss Sparkle". She said she graduated from Sparkle University's Film Directing and Screenwriting program, so we instantly hit it off...
"Director" Doll: ...Who knew that there was no such thing as the "Film Directing and Screenwriting program" at Sparkle University — in fact, Sparkle University isn't even real! Bah, Sparkle.
"Director" Doll: Since you're done asking questions, and I'm done answering... according to the script, I must reveal to you the fact that there's no bomb here at all, thus causing you to want to kick yourself for spending this whole time listening to me prattling on, after which we will part ways.
"Director" Doll: But don't fret! I've also prepared a gift for you — a dream bubble that has the thrilling life-and-death moments I shared with a beautiful Memokeeper! If you haven't seen it yet, you should hurry up and look for Dr. Edward.
The harmless chatterbox plush doll bows affectionately to you, blowing you a kiss before bounding away, vanishing into the depths of the cabin with joyful leaps.

(Investigate the "Origami" Doll)
"Origami" Doll: Yahaha! So you've found me... Uh, no, I meant to say "thank you", tweet!
Icon Dialogue Arrow You're a bomb?
"Origami" Doll: What... You can't tell? I'm the Origami Doll, tweet!
Icon Dialogue Arrow Don't speak out of turn.
"Origami" Doll: I-I just got the parts mixed up! Please don't tell anyone, tweet.
Icon Dialogue Arrow So you're the Origami Bird now then?
"Origami" Doll: Origami Bird? Can't you tell? I'm the Origami Doll, tweet!
"Origami" Doll: Actually, there are 998 more dolls that can pack a punch just like me on the Radiant Feldspar, tweet. Please call them back to the Golden Sparkle Tree. I will prepare a worthy gift for your troubles, tweet!
"Origami" Doll: As for that imaginary neutron bomb you want... Uh, don't interrupt me. I know you never mentioned those three words to me before... Well, the bomb isn't here, tweet! I'm afraid you'll have to look elsewhere for it.
The peculiar doll flicks its twin ponytails and vanishes into the sky of dreamscape, a sight much more thrilling than an Origami Bird. As for the "Golden Sparkle Tree"... forget about it, most likely just some random balderdash that Sparkle made up.

(Investigate the "Furmur" Doll)
This "Furmur" doll is a Sparkle lookalike.
According to the book "Compilation of Sparkle Vocabulary in Modern and Contemporary Times," the term "furmur" was first coined in 2005 AE on the Sparkle Planet in the Sparkle star system. Its original meaning is "fluffy." Nowadays, the inhabitants of Sparkle Planet often use "furmur" specifically to refer to "plush dolls."
In other words, "furmur doll" translates to "fluffy doll doll doll doll." It may sound peculiar, but considering its Sparkle origin, it actually makes lots of sense.
The "Furmur" doll is staring right at you.
Icon Dialogue Arrow Can I dismantle your bomb?
Icon Dialogue Arrow Stare back.
The "Furmur" doll continues to stare right at you.
Icon Dialogue Arrow Can you speak, please!?
Icon Dialogue Arrow Continue to stare back.
The "Furmur" doll's eyes never blink. Honestly, if they did, it would be quite unsettling.
Anyway, it's just an ordinary plush toy. Can you really expect it to utter a single word?
Icon Dialogue Arrow If you don't speak, then your silence equates to consent.
Icon Dialogue Arrow Keep staring at it.
It must be pointed out that this doll has no suspicious features at all. It exudes from within an aura befitting of a "Furmur" doll, not that of an imaginary neutron bomb.
...which means there is no need to bother it anymore. It makes both you and the doll appear rather pitiful. It's best to promptly put an end to this farce.

Find the 1,000th bomb[]

UI Trailblaze Mission Step Description

To reward everyone for their efforts, she sent everyone the coordinates of the final bomb!
More bad news: Based on experience, these coordinates are most likely going to be fake...
But what can you do about it? You never know whether the cat is alive or dead, until you open the box... Go now and get to the bottom of it!
(Trailblazer): (Not much time left... I hope I make it.)
(Approach the pool)
(Trailblazer): (Is that... Firefly?)
(Approach Firefly)
"True Bomb" Doll: Twenty-eight minutes forty-six seconds... Twenty-eight minutes forty-five seconds...
Firefly: ...Ah, you're here!
Icon Dialogue Arrow How's the bomb situation?
Firefly: Looks like she also sent you a message...
Icon Dialogue Arrow You were also summoned here by the Masked Fools?
Firefly: The Masked Fools... So this really was their doing.
Icon Dialogue Arrow Sparkle, eat my bat!
Firefly: Don't come close. This bomb is very dangerous! And... I'm the real Firefly!
Firefly: Since you're here... I'll just keep it short. Just over half an hour ago, I received a message from an unknown sender, and rushed here as soon as I could.
"True Bomb" Doll: Twenty-seven minutes fifty-two seconds... Twenty-seven minutes fifty-one seconds...
Firefly: The sweet dream has lost the protection of the Order — if it were to blow up here... the consequences would be unfathomable. I've scrutinized it for a long time, but the bomb's design is incredibly unique, as if it's been locked by some mysterious Path force...
Firefly: Apart from its creator, I fear no one knows how to deactivate it.
Icon Dialogue Arrow Then we'll just have to find that person!
Firefly: It's difficult. Time is running out, and she's a master of disguise. And even if we catch her, she won't come quietly...
(Return to previous dialogue options)
Icon Dialogue Arrow Don't panic. There are still many people on their way.
Firefly: You mean the Watchmaker's guests? That's a pity... Based on my experience, I don't think any of them can turn the tide on this situation.
Firefly: The Memokeeper may be able to teleport the bomb to a deserted location, but... I've found a note inside the doll.

P.S.: She means business.
P.S.P.S.: It's true! Try it if you dare!
Firefly: I don't know what grudges they have... but this path is a dead end, too.
(Return to previous options)
Icon Dialogue Arrow Mommy... I don't wanna die...
Icon Dialogue Arrow Is there another way?
Firefly: ...
(After all dialogue options have been exhausted)
Icon Dialogue Arrow So that's it? There's no other way?
Firefly: Actually... there might be another way.
Firefly: Do you still remember? The script said that I will experience "death" three times in the Land of Dreams.
Firefly: I think this moment heralds the third time.
Icon Dialogue Arrow What's your plan?
Icon Dialogue Arrow Like I said earlier — now's not the time for the plot payoff!
Firefly: You may already know that I have no way of evoking dreams — I employ a Stellaron Hunter's special method in order to enter dreams instead. This allows me to perform feats that typical Dreamchasers can't.
Firefly: As long as I can bear the pain of the memoria pressure, I'll be able to dive into the primal Memory Zone beyond the dream, and extend a lifeline to the Radiant Feldspar.
Firefly: I will take this bomb into the depths of the DreamscapePrimordial Memory Zone... as deep as possible, where there are no living souls around. That way, at least no one will get hurt.
Icon Dialogue Arrow What about you?
Icon Dialogue Arrow Can you really make it in time?
Icon Dialogue Arrow This matter can't just be left to the Stellaron Hunters.
Firefly: Don't worry. I believe that this Fyrefly ArmorS.A.M. will be enough to take me to where I need to go before the countdown ends... and maybe even make it back safely.
Firefly: At present, this is our best, and most logical course of action. After all, a long story deserves a happy ending.
Firefly: I have some words to share with you, though they were spoken to me by Miss Acheron. She said that "The so-called impossible is merely something that has yet to happen..."
Firefly: At the moment, there are so many things that seem impossible... but are they really never going to happen? Maybe it's just that the moment to disprove these "impossibilities" hasn't arrived yet.
Firefly: Whether it be a literal ending, suffering akin to death, or a harrowing deathscape... Before the appointed destination arrives, they are all the same, yet I can still make myriad choices. I also firmly believe that...
Firefly: That when that moment arrives for us to make a choice, the answer to our end will already be within our hearts
Firefly: It is not destiny that shapes us, but we who shape destiny.
(A cutscene plays)
Firefly: The Astral Express and the Stellaron Hunters... are like light and shadow.
Firefly: We walk on different paths, intertwined, moving forward and growing together...
Firefly: Maybe the end is predestined, but... it is not today.
"True Bomb" Doll: Since things are going too well...
"True Bomb" Doll: Let's speed up the countdown!
Firefly: Human life is short, just like fyreflies [sic] to a flame. So, if you have an answer in your heart...
Firefly: Always remember, don't leave with any regrets.
Firefly: We have this right... don't we?
Sparkle: Since you care so much about other people's safety —
Sparkle: Why don't you go take a closer look!
Firefly: You see, everything is possible in this land of dreams.
Firefly: We each came here with our own goals, and realized them in unimaginable ways.
Firefly: Regardless if the result was a sweet illusion or a bitter reality, it was an answer we longed for day and night.
Firefly: So, why do people choose to slumber? I think it's as you said...
Firefly: Because in the end, we will wake up from our dreams.

Trivia[]

  • The curse by the "Outlaw" Doll is a parody of "Meeska, Mooska, Mickey Mouse" which are the magic words of summoning the Mickey Mouse Club in the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse cartoon series.
  • The "Memey the Imp" Doll is a reference to the heliobus NPC in Fyxestroll Garden known as Little Ghost or Memey the Imp, who is featured in Achievement Boo Ha Ha!.

    Translation: Did I accidentally leave it out? Oh, I did. But it doesn't matter, I actually didn't go to school——I mean, "Bomb Demon" Doll didn't go to school.
