Continue the Trailblazing Expedition[]
Step DescriptionThe Era Nova ceremony has been successfully completed, and Amphoreus's journey is... over? Continue returning to the trailblazing expedition to understand your current situation.
Return to your room to rest and wait for the Express to depart?[]
- Mission DescriptionThe Era Nova Ceremony was a success, and the journey in Amphoreus had reached its end... So why can't you remember anything? Was it really at the cost of "memories"...?
The navigation meeting is about to begin. If you had truly forgotten, the Crew would fill you in.
By the way, who put that tasteless painting in your room?
- (Trailblazer): Hmm... Hmhmhmhm... Hmhmhmhm...
- (Trailblazer): Hmm... Hmhmhm... Hmhmhm...
- "Shush": You may notice a hint of sweetness in the air. That would be the fragrance of the seven-colored bath salts from Marmoreal Palace.
- "Shush": A truly splendid journey, if I may say so. With the "Era Nova" now complete, you have granted the hero the perfect conclusion.
- (Trailblazer): Dun-dun... dun-dun-dun-dun-dun-dun...
- (Trailblazer): Dun-dun... dun-dun-dun-dun-dun-dun~
- "Shush": Losses were a constant on the Flame-Chase journey, until your radiant arrival turned the tide.
- "Shush": Lord Ravager? Irontomb? Mere playthings in the hands of the Trailblazer. The cosmos is safe once more, because—
- (Trailblazer): Shush!
- Pom-Pom: Hey hey hey! Incoming train broadcast—
- Pom-Pom: Attention all passengers! The navigation meeting is about to begin! Make your way to the Parlor Car — it's time to pick our next stop!
- (Trailblazer): (Perfect timing. Let's head to the meeting.)
- (Trailblazer): (Ah~ I'm wide awake and feeling great!)
- (Trailblazer): (Hm? What's this?)
- (Trailblazer): (Who left this note?)
- (Trailblazer): (Strange... It's like I...)
- An impulse rushes into your mind, urging you to read the note...
- Take a look.
- Take a look.
- Take a look.
- (Quick Read)
-
March 7th's Memo - (Trailblazer),
We'll travel together forever and ever. Your good friend, March 7th
- (Trailblazer): ...
- What is this...?
- When did this get put here?
- Such a heavy message...
- (Trailblazer): (March... When did she leave this here? I didn't hear a thing...)
- (Trailblazer): (Whatever. I'll go ask her myself.)
- (Trailblazer): (Huh? There's a new painting here...)
- (Trailblazer): (All I did was take a bath... How did so many surprises pop up?)
- (Trailblazer): (Better step forward and take a closer look...)
Investigate the strange picture frame[]
- Distant Male Voice: "Keep it down... I think I've found (him/
her)." - (Trailblazer): ...Who's there?
- (Investigate the painting)
- (Trailblazer): (What's this...)
- The melody of harmony can be heard, pulling you to touch the painting before you...
- Wake up, (Trailblazer).
- Wake up, (Trailblazer).
- Wake up, (Trailblazer).
- (Trailblazer): ...
- (Trailblazer): Is this The Reverie Hotel?
Head to the hall and figure out what's going on[]
- Step DescriptionThe Era Nova Ceremony was a success, and the journey in Amphoreus had reached its end... So why can't you remember anything? Was it really at the cost of "memories"...?
Isn't this Penacony? Could it be that you never woke up from Ena's Dream?
- (Trailblazer): (Seriously, what is happening...?)
- (Investigate the first guest room on the left, optional)
- The guest room door won't budge...
- (Approach the marked location)
- Pom-Pom: (Trailblazer), there you are! What took you so long?
- Pom-Pom: Hurry up, the navigation meeting is about to start.
- (Trailblazer): (Navigation meeting... in Penacony?)
- Himeko: Come on over, (Trailblazer). It's time to choose our next destination.
- Himeko: Perfect timing. The meeting's hit a standstill: Lushaka or Melustanin, no one can make the call.
- Himeko: The vote's split two against two. Everything hinges on your vote now.
- Seems like we're one person short.
- I don't see March 7th anywhere.
- Dan Heng: What do you mean?
- Pom-Pom: And once again, passenger (Trailblazer) is talking nonsense.
- Welt: Ah, young people. Always full of jokes.
- (Trailblazer): (What...? Their reactions... What's going on?)
- Himeko: Ah, I get it, (Trailblazer) wants to play a game with us, right?
- What game?
- I... I don't get what you guys are saying...
- Himeko: You said you didn't see March.
- Himeko: True, she might be hiding somewhere in the lobby.
- Himeko: The objective of the game... is to uncover where she's hiding.
- Himeko: You're her closest companion. If anyone can do it, it's you, right?
- (Trailblazer): (Is March 7th... playing hide-and-seek with me?)
- (Talk to Welt Yang, optional)
- Welt: Youthful games like this are a bit much for me these days. I'll step aside and let you all take the spotlight. The future belongs to you now.
- (Trailblazer): (Something about Mr. Yang's attitude feels... a little off.)
- (Talk to Dan Heng, optional)
- Dan Heng: You seem in good spirits, (Trailblazer). Rest assured. Wherever our next stop is, I'll make sure you're all protected.
- (Trailblazer): (Huh... Dan Heng, being this forward? That's not like him at all.)
- (Talk to Himeko, optional)
- Himeko: Not feeling ready yet? How about a cup of my special coffee blend to calm your nerves? Everyone says great things about it.
- (Trailblazer): (Wait, everyone is saying great things about Himeko's coffee? Yeah, sure... lying liars.)
- (Investigate the people at the east or west doors, optional)
- An unfamiliar face with malicious eyes... definitely bad news.
- (Investigate the people at the bar or north door, optional)
- That cold, aloof stranger... just being in the same space with them is enough to make me suffocate.
View Visitor Logs[]
- (Investigate the guest book)
- (Quick Read)
-
Message from an Unknown Visitor Visited On: Sunday. Visitor's Name: ■■■■■■
Guest's Message: Careful■■ listen to ■■■■■■■■■■■ voice
- (Trailblazer): (An unsigned guest log... Can you really call that a "log"?)
- (Trailblazer): (Wait a second... Why am I looking for March 7th in the guest book?)
- "Pink" Voice: "(Trailblazer)..."
- "Pink" Voice: "Over here..."
Answer the desk phone[]
- (Investigate the phone on the piano)
- Front Desk Phone: ...
- (Trailblazer): (Weird... did I even make a call?)
- Front Desk Phone: ...
- "March 7th": Hello? Hello? Is that (Trailblazer)?
- "March 7th": Hehe, I knew you'd call. Missed me, didn't you?
- "March 7th": Don't worry, we'll see each other very soon, because...
- "March 7th": The "Trailblazing" journey never really ends, does it?
- Front Desk Phone: ...
- (Trailblazer): (March...)
- "Pink" Voice: "That's not her..."
- "Pink" Voice: "Don't... fall for it..."
Investigate the phonograph message[]
- (Investigate the screen at the bar)
- (Interastral Peace Broadcast music)
- Female Voice: This is the Interastral Peace Broadcast. Good evening everyone.
- Male Broadcaster: Good evening.
- Female Broadcaster: A newsflash: The "Erudition" experimental ground ■■■■■■■■■ has separated from the ■■■■■ ■■■■■' entanglement.
- Male Broadcaster: The Lord Ravager ■■■■■■■■ did not emerge as ■■■■■■ had anticipated.
- Female Broadcaster: In the end, the salvation of Amphoreus was not only thanks to the ■■■■■-■■■■■■■ twelve ■■■■■■■ ■■■■■, but also to one crucial ■■■■■■■ ■■■■ ■■■■■■ ■■■ ■■■...
- *Piercing frequency interference noise*
- Distant Male Voice: "It won't be easy, I know, but you've got this."
- Distant Male Voice: "Find your way back... Find yourself... (Trailblazer)..."
Confront the jellyfish left behind by Evernight[]
- (Immediately after investigating all items)
- (Trailblazer): (March 7th isn't here...)
- (Trailblazer): (Faint, fleeting voices are speaking to me... but where are they coming from?)
- Listen carefully...
- Another Ena's Dream...
- (Trailblazer): (I went through something like this before, back in Penacony...)
- (Trailblazer): (Not even Lygus's prison could hold me... I found my way out.)
- (Trailblazer): (Keep it together. I know I can do this...)
- Listen to the music of the Harmony.
- Distant Male Voice: "I found you, (Trailblazer). You did well."
- Distant Male Voice: "Soar! Break free from the cage of memoria. Let harmony become your wings..."
- Evernight: "A clever little trick. But stealing a fledgling from someone else's nest..."
- Evernight: "Not exactly the pinnacle of integrity, is it ♭"
- Capture that streak of "pink."
- "Pink" Voice: "Well done, (Trailblazer)... just like that time in the sea of flowers in the nether realm."
- "Pink" Voice: "Snatch up my colors, okay? Then we can go home together!"
- Evernight: "You... you're trying to tamper with the Remembrance too..."
- Evernight: "Too bad~ You're no match for me ♭"
- Completely give in.
- Distant Male Voice: "No matter what, don't give up, (Trailblazer)..."
- "Pink" Voice: "(Trailblazer), take my hand!"
- Evernight: "The Harmony and the Remembrance..."
- Evernight: "My, what a fascinating partnership you two have formed ♭"
- "Dan Heng": Did you find her, (Trailblazer)?
- "Himeko": No. It's a futile game, isn't it?
- "Welt": In truth, you don't have to go to such lengths to find March 7th.
- "Pom-Pom": Because in this Memory Zone, March is everywhere.
- "Evernight": We're protecting March 7th's wish, (Trailblazer).
- "Evernight": You... you seriously can't sense it?
- "Evernight": She doesn't want to say goodbye to the Trailblaze. She wants to keep traveling together... forever and ever...
- "Evernight": We are her memosprites. For the sake of her wish... we must give it our all.
- ???: Finally, the timing is just right...
- ???: A thrilling "damsel-in-distress rescue"!
- ???: Wait... maybe I got that backwards?
- Mem...!
- Cyrene: It's me, Cyrene! But now I'm in... my "Mem" form!
- Cyrene...?
- Cyrene: That's right, but now I'm in... my "Mem" form!
- Cyrene: Seriously! One mysterious and cute memosprite is more than enough!
- Cyrene: (Trailblazer), come with me... We're getting out of here.
Escape with Cyrene[]
- Step DescriptionThe Era Nova Ceremony has been completed. The journey in Amphoreus is over... As if!
This is all an illusion constructed from your "memory." You must now escape with Cyrene into other memories!
Sunday is using his powers to invade your "dreamscape" to save you... Never thought this day would come.
- "Evernight": Why run away?
- "Evernight": What does it take, to make you understand...
- Cyrene: Step one: Stop scaring (him/
her) already.
Talk with Cyrene[]
- (Approach the marked location)
- Cyrene: In this form, I'm way more suited for the Memory Zone. I'm totally in my element!
- Cyrene: Grab my hand, let's hide away in the deepest corner of your memories, (Trailblazer).
- We're in dire straits. I'm counting on you.
- There's so much I don't understand...
- Cyrene: Me too! But first things first, let's ditch these memosprites.
- But what about my privacy?
- Cyrene: If it really bothers (Trailblazer) that much, I'll close my eyes. Just take my hand and lead the way!
- Cyrene: "Lift the curtain of memory—"
- Cyrene: "—and stir up ripples of past reverie!"
- (Trailblazer): Where am I...
- Cyrene: The space station. Where it all began for (Trailblazer). Looks like... we made it.
- Cyrene: Mmm? What's that?
- (Trailblazer): Silver Wolf... Kafka!?
- Cyrene: Ah, it's (Trailblazer)'s secret! I'm so curious... but I won't peek. Promise!
- Cyrene: When I first met (Trailblazer), I remember they were there in your memories too.
- What are they doing?
- I remember this scene...
- Cyrene: Yes. This memory is all too real... and so, so heavy.
- Here we are again... after so long.
- Cyrene: (Trailblazer) sounds really nostalgic...
- Cyrene: You sound really nostalgic. Want to take a closer look, (Trailblazer)? Go ahead, think of it as a glimpse into the past.
- Cyrene: I'll stay right here. I promise not to disturb you.
Uncover your pre-awakening memories[]
- Step DescriptionThe Era Nova Ceremony has been completed. The journey in Amphoreus is over... As if!
This is all an illusion constructed from your "memory." You must now escape with Cyrene into other memories!
Sunday is using his powers to invade your "dreamscape" to save you... Never thought this day would come.
- (Talk to Cyrene, optional)
- Cyrene: We'll stay hidden here for now. If you want to wander, (Trailblazer), don't go too far from me!
- (Approach the marked location)
- (Trailblazer): (What's this...)
- (Trailblazer): (Memories... from before I woke up?)
- Kafka: ...So, Silver Wolf, how long till (he/
she) wakes? - Silver Wolf: Hard to say... Maybe a few more minutes?
- Silver Wolf: By the way... "that part" in the script — could this be the right moment?
- Kafka: Yes, looks like we're on the same page. In that case...
- Kafka: Listen.
- Kafka: Remember these words... then forget them. Let them slumber in the depths of your memory, until the day they are awakened once more.
- Kafka: On that day, your journey will intertwine with the Remembrance. In nearly every possibility Elio has foreseen, it leads to a great crisis. You'll face betrayal, lose your way... and seek answers.
- Kafka: So... before you hear these words...
- Kafka: I don't want you to consider this a prophecy. You arrived at this moment because of the decisions you made.
- Silver Wolf: Hmm?
- Kafka: I don't know what you'll have endured... or whether you'll still believe in me. But if there's even a trace of doubt in your heart... I hope these words can give you strength...
- Kafka: It was a wish of the cosmos that set you in motion. And in the tale where you are the protagonist, the stars themselves will defy the destiny of "Finality."
- Kafka: Mark this number: "four." According to Terminus's prophecy, four Paths will push the cosmos to its end. And on your journey, you shall encounter THEM... one by one.
- Kafka: "Destruction."
- Kafka: "Harmony."
- Kafka: "Nihility."
- Kafka: And "■■■■■■■■■■■."
- What? I can't make it out...
- And the last Path... what is it?
- Kafka: Easy now. Trust what you remember. The fourth Path has yet to fully reveal THEIR face.
- Kafka: And that's why the journey's worth it. Even in a predetermined "script," there's room for us to mold possibilities into shapes we prefer.
- Kafka: So listen: Take this guiding principle... then forget it. Let your own will be what expands your journey through life.
- Kafka: As in the past, even while achieving so much, you never let go of your pursuit of freedom.
- (Trailblazer): ...
- Silver Wolf: That was so sincere... I might actually tear up a little.
- Kafka: We all live within the "script." But adding a little color to the lines... has never been forbidden.
- Silver Wolf: Are you going to say more about those branching storylines?
- Silver Wolf: Never mind, best not to tempt fate. Get ready, (he/
she)'s about to wake up.
- (Trailblazer): ...Come back to yourself.
- (Trailblazer): Kafka said that when my link to the Remembrance deepens, this memory will resurface exactly when it needs to... and an inevitable crisis will surely follow.
- (Trailblazer): But even a Stellaron Hunter can't fully grasp the Trailblazing journey...
- (Trailblazer): Just as I thought... It all begins with March 7th, doesn't it?
- (Trailblazer): Even if the Express had never arrived at Amphoreus, her secret would have come to light eventually...
- In that case, there's really nothing to fear.
- (Trailblazer): If that's the case, then there's nothing to fear. Collect yourself and go find Cyrene.
- That's a reasonable conclusion.
- (Trailblazer): All things considered, that's the most reasonable conclusion. It's a lot to take in. Time to clear my head and find Cyrene again.
- The pressure's really starting to build...
- (Trailblazer): The pressure's really starting to build... I can barely think straight. I need to clear my head and go find Cyrene.
- (Trailblazer): Cy...rene...?
- (Trailblazer): ...!
- "Evernight": It's a breakthrough! A breakthrough!
- "Evernight": How could that little pink girl possibly beat us?
- "Evernight": Tsk... (Trailblazer), you really don't know how to behave, do you?
- "Evernight": You were meant to stay in those beautiful memories... and wait for all the disasters to pass.
- Looks like a fierce battle is inevitable...
- Where's Cyrene!?
- Of course, ten times stronger after turning evil. Great.
- ???: "Oh, Triple-Faced Soul..."
- ???: "Cast your light upon us! Let no darkness remain concealed!"
- (Trailblazer): (Sunday...?)
- ???: "Raise your hands high, (Trailblazer), and embrace this boundless light!"
- (Trailblazer): ...This stage really brings back memories.
- ???: "Yes, (Trailblazer)..."
- Sunday: "For you... I suppose it's been a long time, hasn't it?"
- Sunday: "None of this would've been possible without Miss Cyrene. Even while engulfed by memoria, she fought to stay in contact with the geniuses."
- Sunday: "Only then, through 'tuning', was I able to undo the Memory Zone's effect on you."
- I noticed it back at the hotel.
- What about Cyrene? Where is she?
- The Harmony is dangerous.
- Sunday: "What's the matter? Your expression is one full of hesitation..."
- Sunday: "Step onto the stage first. 'Miss March' will come for us soon, and she won't be alone. Those memosprites will follow. We need to prepare early. Only then can we get you out safely, and go back for Cyrene and March 7th."
- Sunday: "Please, be careful. Amphoreus is being overwhelmed by an unusually violent memoria tide. I'll do all I can... but even that might not be enough."
Escape with Sunday[]
- Step DescriptionThe Era Nova Ceremony has been completed. The journey in Amphoreus is over... As if!
This is all an illusion constructed from your "memory." You must now escape with Cyrene into other memories!
Sunday is using his powers to invade your "dreamscape" to save you... Never thought this day would come.
- Sunday: "Black... and pink... two 'memories' twisted together."
- Sunday: "Time is precious. Let's pick up the pace."
- (Approach the marked location)
- Sunday: Yes, Madam Herta. I've made contact with (him/
her). - Sunday: Understood. I'll carry out my part as expected...
- "Evernight": "Quite the dazzling nest you have, little bird of the Harmony."
- Sunday: Ugh...!
- "Evernight": "Your grasp of memoria is unexpectedly profound. But playtime's over."
- "Evernight": "This ocean we created according to her wish... this journey that flows on without end..."
- "Evernight": "Don't any of you think about interfering with it."
- Sunday: She's coming... Is it me she's after this time?
- Sunday: (Trailblazer), there's no time to regroup! I've prepared an alternate escape route!
- Sunday: Wake from your slumber... and return to reality.
- (Cutscene begins)
-
- Sunday: Come on. I'll bring you out.
- Evernight: Out?
- Evernight: Self-righteous pathstrider of the Harmony...
- Evernight: You think you can do that?
- Evernight: Next time...
- Evernight: Get a Memokeeper instead.
- Sunday: Ugh...
- Herta: That was way too close... Good thing I was there to fish you out!
- Welt: Sunday, are you alright?
- Sunday: Mr. Yang...
- Sunday: I couldn't get (him/
her) out. I'm sorry. - Welt: Is it true...? That March is behind all of this?
- Sunday: Yes... and no.
- Sunday: That pathstrider of Remembrance is identical to March 7th in appearance, but what lies inside...
- Sunday: I can't find the right words to describe it just yet.
- Herta: Can't you come up with an analogy? I thought that was your thing!
- Sunday: That "Miss March" feels like a reflection on water, only not from a calm, clear lake... but from a bottomless abyss.
- Sunday: Within her words, I sensed an intense but utterly pure...
- Sunday: Protectiveness.
- Welt: "Protectiveness"?
- Sunday: This is only speculation, but after being drawn into Amphoreus, perhaps March 7th experienced. No, she likely foresaw a tragic end.
- Sunday: It was out of a desire to protect her fellow crew mates that she chose to awaken a power... that teeters on the edge of evil.
- Welt: ...
- Welt: On the bright side... at least March 7th won't have to face any danger again.
- Sunday: After that battle, I'm afraid I'll no longer be able to join the fight through "tuning." So...
- Sunday: Has Miss Black Swan's progress remained on track?
- Herta: You don't need to worry. She used your disturbance to mask her movements. Current status: advancing upstream within the Memory Zone.
- Herta: I didn't see that coming... The Memokeeper is pretty courageous, choosing to defy the rules and take matters into her own hands.
- Herta: This means she's chosen to stand against the Garden of Recollection.
- Switching to Black Swan's POV...
- During a fleeting moment between Evernight and Sunday, Black Swan traveled upstream along the Path's currents...
