Loading Screen: Long

Long (Chinese: 龙 Lóng) was an Aeon in Honkai: Star Rail who represented the Permanence. Long was the "Progenitor of All Dragons," known for THEIR role in the creation of THEIR scions and interpretation of immortality — the Revelation of the Permanence.

Profile

Before the dawn of history, Long traversed the burgeoning chaos, seeking the answer to existence. And on that path, the Revelation of the Permanence was unraveled. Then came our emergence. Us — Long's Scions.

—Preceptor Taoran, "History of the Xianzhou: Exodus of the Five Dragons"

Long traversed the universe an untold number of Amber Eras ago with the primary goal of seeking the meaning to life itself. At some point, THEY found their answer, which became known as the Revelation of the Permanence. After that, Long's scions also emerged. No one knows exactly the true ideals of the Aeon, but the penman of the Candelagraphos of the Intelligentsia Guild, Oppenheimer, came to certain conclusions.

Long could have defined the meaning of existence to be the "timeless nature of one's greatness." THEIR decision to reincarnate, abhorring biological immortality, also led the penman to question if the revelation postulates the "continuance of bloodline." Alternatively, the decision of the High Elders of the Vidyadhara to ally with the Xianzhou Alliance signifies their inclination towards "a noble ambition that ensures the safety of the universe."

Appearance

Long had the appearance of a Chinese dragon, possessing a snake-like body with four limbs.

Long's Scions

The Vidyadhara are not the only branch of Long's Scions, and are said to be spread throughout countless worlds. They were once the subject of discussion among Preceptor Taoran and Penman Oppenheimer.
