Visitor Verification
After completing Trailblaze Mission Silent Galaxy, Bronya will periodically appear in the Astral Express' Parlor Car or Party Car.
Thank you for inviting me...
- (Idle quote)
- Bronya: These stars...
- (Initial interaction)
- Bronya: Thank you for inviting me, (Trailblazer) — I'll be able to get away from the complexities of politics here. Being surrounded by these beautiful stars... it's such a joy.
- Bronya: Although we've been through so much together, I actually know very little about the Astral Express. I'd like to start visiting more frequently if the opportunity arises.
I actually don't know much about the Express either...
- Bronya: Really? Hmm, I suppose you wouldn't... That reminds me of March — she can't remember her past. Feels like everyone in the Express Crew has a mysterious background.
You're always welcome here.
- Bronya: Thank you, (Trailblazer). Hopefully, I'll have more time to get to know the Crew.
- Bronya: I really enjoy staring out into the universe. What a vast, mesmerizing, romantic view.
- Bronya: I hope that one day the children of Belobog will have the same opportunity to witness the stars up close.
- Bronya: (Trailblazer), please, don't mind me. Feel free to go about your business. I think I'll stay here and enjoy the view a while longer.

- (Subsequent interactions)
- Bronya: Warriors, adventurers, supreme guardians — we all gaze upon the same stars, the same sky... each with our own roles to play, our own independent lives to live.
- Bronya: The work we put in to survive may seem small in the grand scheme of things... but that doesn't mean it's not important.
(Trailblazer), I took the opportunity to look...
- (Initial interaction)
- Bronya: (Trailblazer), I took the opportunity to look through the Express' data bank. I hope you guys don't mind.
- Bronya: What I saw surprised me... A good number of the Architects in Belobog believe that Qlipoth is the one and only Aeon... It's clear that their conclusion was limited and lacking in perspective.
- Bronya: I didn't know there were so many great and mysterious beings in the universe... It goes to show just how tiny and fragile we really are.
- Bronya: These records remind me of something my mother once said to me — "Can civilizations built by humans really stand against the will of gods?"
- We must take a stand, even if it's futile.
- Such feats are impossible for humans.
- Bronya: Is that how you feel? I see...
- Bronya: Whatever the case, we must continue living, one step at a time... Most people are doing their best to survive — they have no time to ponder ancient beings hidden in the universe.
- Bronya: I just hope that if a disaster such as the Stellaron crisis were to happen again, we'd all be prepared for it.
- (Subsequent interactions)
- Bronya: Aeons, Paths, and factions... These concepts all feel so distant to me, yet their existence cannot be denied.
- Bronya: I wonder if Qlipoth, the Preservation, has ever glanced at us in the past 700 years — even for a second.
(Trailblazer), I have something to ask about the conductor...
- (Idle quote)
- Bronya: What exactly is Pom-Pom...
- (Initial interaction)
- Bronya: (Trailblazer), I have something I'd like to ask about the conductor...
- Ask away.
- Why don't you ask Pom-Pom directly?
- Bronya: Uh... I wouldn't want to offend them, but um...
- Bronya: What I'd like to know... is Pom-Pom a rabbit that learned to speak...? Or a person that was turned into a rabbit?
- Probably the former.
- Bronya: Really? So my guess was correct.
- I'm guessing the latter.
- Bronya: Really? Seems like I got it wrong, then...
- They're not a human or a rabbit.
- Bronya: So that means Pom-Pom is just... Pom-Pom? Fascinating.
- Bronya: Actually, I've never seen a rabbit in real life, I've only seen pictures and read about them in books. So when I first saw Pom-Pom, I thought...
- Bronya: Ahem... never mind. (Trailblazer), please don't tell Pom-Pom about this conversation... Okay?
- (Subsequent interactions)
- Bronya: A rabbit that learned to speak...? Or a person that was turned into a rabbit?
- Bronya: Ah... don't mind me. I'm just talking to myself.
I want to ask you about something, (Trailblazer).
- (Idle quote)
- Bronya: This car is so warm.
- (Initial interaction)
- Bronya: I want to ask you about something, (Trailblazer). Why are the Astral Express' cars so warm?
- It's all thanks to the powerful heating system.
- Bronya: Amazing. It must be wonderful to live in such warmth.
- It might be the power of the Trailblaze at work.
- Bronya: So it's the power of the Aeon? I see...
- Bronya: Belobog has a heating system of its own. However, maintaining a steady indoor temperature has always been a challenge, no matter if it's Qlipoth Fort or the Boulder Town clinic.
- Bronya: One of the problems I want to solve is tackling the heating issue without exhausting Geomarrow reserves. I've discussed this with Serval — she'll be the one responsible for handling this matter in [sic] future...
- Bronya...
- Bronya: Sorry, I'm talking about work again... I should take your advice and try to relax a little.
- Bronya: I'm going to take a nap... just a quick one.
- (Subsequent interactions)
- Bronya: *snoring*
- (Trailblazer): (Bronya seems to be asleep...)
(Trailblazer), Himeko gave me something to drink just now...
- (Idle quote)
- Bronya: This is... coffee...?
- (Initial interaction)
- Bronya: (Trailblazer), Himeko gave me something to drink just now...
- Bronya: She said it's coffee — an Astral Express specialty. I tried a sip, but it's a little...
- Does it taste good?
- Bronya: Uh... I—It's hard to describe.
- Is it bitter?
- Bronya: Um... It's a little bitter... and a little sour...
- I never drink that stuff.
- Bronya: Mm... looks like I still have a lot to learn...
- Bronya: I'll be honest — I'd never had coffee before.
- Bronya: I heard this drink was once very popular in Belobog. However, the advent of the Eternal Freeze brought harsh conditions, and the soil necessary to grow the coffee beans became extremely rare.
- Bronya: As a result, coffee beans became a rare sight — now you can only procure them if you have the right connections. I've even heard the tales of greedy merchant guilds driving up the cost of substandard coffee beans...
- Bronya: I have to admit, if this is the taste of coffee... I can't help but feel sorry for those who shell out a fortune for it.
- This isn't how coffee should be...
- Bronya: You mean...
- Bronya: Ahem... I understand. Looks like the Crew have similar feelings... Don't worry, I won't tell anyone.
- Coffee is supposed to be bitter, like life...
- Bronya: Uh... are you alright?
- Bronya: (Trailblazer)... I don't think I can get through this whole cup of coffee, but I don't want to hurt Himeko's feelings. Would you mind—
- That's not gonna happen.
- Bronya: I didn't even finish what I was saying...
- Hold your nose and chug it!
- Bronya: Uhh...
- Bronya: *sigh* Alright then, give me a moment to mentally prepare myself.
- Bronya: You can do this, Bronya... You can do this...
- (Subsequent interactions)
- Bronya: It's just a cup of coffee... I got this...
- Bronya: How can you call yourself a supreme guardian if you can't overcome a cup of coffee? Ugh, it's so bitter...
(Trailblazer), I've prepared a gift...
- (Idle quote)
- Bronya: I have a gift...
- (Initial interaction)
- Bronya: (Trailblazer), I've prepared a gift for the Crew. I feel that it'd be most appropriate if you held onto it.
- Bronya: You all have saved Belobog from danger time and time again. We don't have much, but we'd like to say thank you with this small gesture.
- (Obtain Stellar Jade ×10)
- (Subsequent interactions)
- Bronya: With what power Belobog currently holds, we are far from being able to assist the Nameless... However, I do hope that one day we can provide you with reliable support.
- Bronya: May your travels be fruitful, (Trailblazer).

Dialogue
- (First interaction)
- Bronya: If you walk with your head down and your heart full of fear, your steps will grow heavier and your spirit will suffer.
- Bronya: But if you find something to look up to and move forward with hope, then your steps will grow lighter... and if you should fall, you'll be on your feet before you know it.
- Bronya: ...Thank you for teaching me this, Trailblazers.
- (Continues to regular dialogue options)
- (Subsequent interactions)
- Bronya: You're still here, (Trailblazer).
- Bronya: Despite Belobog being in a terrible state these days... You can always find its charming side, if only you look carefully enough.
- Bronya: I trust you have a meticulous eye for beauty, Trailblazer. I hope you have a great time in Belobog.
- Do you have time to chat, Bronya?
- Bronya: Of course, I do, (Trailblazer). I've always benefited from our discussions.
- How does it feel to be the Supreme Guardian?
- Bronya: For me, it's just a title and nothing more. I'll still stick to doing the right thing with or without this title.
- Bronya: ...But not from the point of view of the people. For them, the Supreme Guardian is a powerful symbol — not just of the city's leadership, but also of a future with hope.
- Bronya: So I have to re-examine my thinking more critically. I have to always bear in mind that every decision I make could affect the lives of thousands of people...
- Bronya: It's a heavy load to bear. To be honest, I don't even know if I can do it. But I'm lucky — because I don't have to go through it alone.
- What plans do you have next?
- Bronya: The number one priority is to revitalize Belobog... Ah, it still sounds so vague, doesn't it?
- Bronya: As for specific actions, I think the number one priority is to reorganize the economy of Belobog.
- Bronya: The blockade has had a huge impact on the Overworld and Underworld economies. Right now, ordinary miners in the Underworld can't bear the high cost of living in the Administrative District.
- Bronya: If things don't get better, then you can forget about reintegrating the Overworld and the Underworld. I've booked meetings with several of the finance ministers to try to hammer out a basic direction for reforms.
- Bronya: — Of course, this is only the first step in a great revitalization plan. I hope it will be a strong start.
- About Cocolia...
- Bronya: ...Keep your voice down, (Trailblazer).
- Bronya: As for Mom... All I can do is keep myself from remembering how she looked before she passed.
- Bronya: (Trailblazer), no matter what she might look like to you, Madam Cocolia was my only living family. Everything that has made me into the person I am... I owe it to her teachings.
- Bronya: I don't know when she started going astray, but this whole time, all she's ever done has been to shower me with love... And I don't think that's the Stellaron's influence.
- Bronya: Honestly speaking, the thought of not seeing her again... always wells me up with tears. Yet, now is not the time for me to show my vulnerable side.
- Bronya: So, let's talk about something else, (Trailblazer).
- Is Seele here?
- Bronya: She wants to get stuck into some material change, rather than stick around in this lifeless office. She was always thinking about the Underworld. You can't stop someone like that from leaving.
- Bronya: Seele is a doer. She can't do what she does best at the negotiation table. She knows where her strengths lie... And as a friend and fellow fighter, I support her choice.
- Bronya: Besides, if I send a signal asking for her help... I know she'll return to me. And that's all I need.
- Thanks for your time, Bronya.
- Goodbye, Bronya.
- Bronya: So long, (Trailblazer). I wish you all the best on your journey.
- (Included in subsequent interactions, upon completing Trailblaze Continuance Future Market (II))
- Can we talk about dealings with the IPC?
- Bronya: Of course we can talk about that! There's much that is worth discussing... We're both free, what's on your mind?
- What do you think about Topaz?
- Bronya: Miss Topaz... She is very complex.
- Bronya: From the letter she gave me, I could sense her sincerity. Yet she would also withhold important information from me, and coerce and manipulate us into doing what she desires.
- Bronya: However, I can feel that she is sincerely working for the future of this planet from the bottom of her heart, even if not everyone can accept her methods.
- She is very calculated.
- Bronya: You're right. It's a relief that she is on our side... I guess this is what you'd call a blessing in disguise, right? Though Belobog experienced a great trial, it also gained a powerful ally because of it.
- She is a trustworthy person.
- Bronya: This is something we agree on. Though the power that she represents and the calculated schemes that she has displayed have caused us to remain guarded.
- Bronya: It's a relief that she is on our side now... I guess this is what you'd call a blessing in disguise, right? Though Belobog experienced a great trial, it also gained a powerful ally because of it.
- Bronya: My wish is that this will make the IPC abandon their idea of interfering with Jarilo-VI. I hope Miss Topaz's promise carries enough weight...
- You almost signed the contract back then.
- Bronya: That's right... At that moment, I was on the verge of breaking down. Fortunately, Miss Himeko appeared in time and explained the whole picture.
- Bronya: I wonder why Topaz didn't mention the numbers and probability in her letter... Was she confident enough in herself? Or did she deliberately hide them from me?
- Bronya: ...Well, that's no longer important. What I need to reflect on is how I felt at that moment, I almost caved to the pressure... At that moment, all I wanted was to escape my responsibilities, once and for all.
- Bronya: If things had not turned around, I may have betrayed the trust of all our citizens... and Seele's, too. I must learn from this lesson and continue to grow. My will must be stronger!
- There are many IPC people in the city.
- Bronya: Indeed, I permitted them to station in Belobog.
- Bronya: Those that are stationed here are all Topaz's most trusted employees. It seems they call this place an "Exo-Technical Support Dispatch Zone."
- Bronya: Whatever the case, we can definitely make use of the IPC's technology. If they can know their place and assist the citizens in their work, Belobog may even complete this "tech-leap" they speak of within a generation...
- Bronya: Can you imagine, (Trailblazer)? There may come a day — once I step down from my role as Supreme Guardian — that we could really set out to travel together. This is no longer just a pipe dream.
- About the Engine of Creation and Pillars of Creation...
- Bronya: When you went in search of Topaz, I immediately made an appeal to the people on the Belobog city radio.
- Bronya: I told the citizens everything behind the events surrounding the IPC, and urged them to pick up their tools and join the Silvermane guards northward, to direct their efforts toward the rebuilding of the Engine of Creation.
- Bronya: And you all saw the outcome. The citizens of Belobog — regardless of background and status, both Underworlder and Overworlder — have all come together to contribute to maintaining the freedom and autonomy of this world.
- Bronya: I'm so happy, (Trailblazer)... I no longer have to concoct a lie this time. I don't have to sacrifice my sincerity for the sake of stability.
- Bronya: Perhaps, one day... people will also be able to calmly accept "that truth."
