善見天——地名
帶領星穹列車發現善見天的領航員桑-3000曾這樣記錄:「善見天是『記憶』的苗圃,浮黎偉岸的身影佇立在其中心。」但如今看來,她的描述不完全準確,並非浮黎深居善見天,而是流光憶庭圍繞星神構建了這片記憶的淨土。
憶者們相信,當銀河迎來不可避免的終結,浮黎會揀選記憶作為藍圖,令諸界在新的宇宙復生。於是,流光憶庭穿行寰宇,遴選珍貴的記憶獻給星神,一片壯麗的淨土逐漸落成,就像公司將石料堆砌在琥珀王身側。
世人對善見天的了解僅限於此。時至今日,這些堆積的質料仍未發揮作用,浮黎只是禪坐於淨土中央,靜靜記錄著一切。學者們質疑,「記憶」星神的行蹤被憶庭層層遮掩,是否意味著善見天的水晶神只是一具假身?更有焚化工散布駭人的信息:浮黎早已身碎道隕,而流光憶庭假借神名,操縱著無主的命途。
然而,無主的命途不會出現有如潮汐的能量波動,已隕的星神也不會瞥視任何行者。「記憶」與浮黎並不符合這些標準。但祂從不輕易示現,只留下水晶般的身影映照銀河。也許就像阿德里安•斯賓塞-史密斯所說:「不要詢問一道影子身在何方。你應在祂的王座之外,找尋照射祂的光。」
Eden of Blessed Insight (Location)
Sam-3000, the Navigator who led the Astral Express to discover the Eden of Blessed Insight, once recorded: "The Eden of Blessed Insight is the nursery of the Remembrance, with Fuli's towering figure standing at its center." However, it currently seems that her description wasn't entirely accurate. It wasn't that Fuli dwelled deep within the Eden of Blessed Insight, but rather that the Garden of Recollection built this Pure Land of Remembrance around the Aeon.
The Memokeepers believe that when the cosmos faces its inevitable end, Fuli will select certain memories to use as a blueprint to resurrect all realms in the new universe. Thus, the Garden of Recollection traverses through space, carefully selecting precious memories to offer to the Aeon. A magnificent Pure Land gradually takes shape, much like how the IPC piles stones beside the Amber Lord.
Such is all that mortals know about the Eden of Blessed Insight. To this day, these accumulated materials remain unused, while Fuli simply sits in meditation at the center of the Pure Land, silently recording everything. Scholars question: With the whereabouts of the Aeon of Remembrance obscured by the Garden of Recollection, could the Crystal God of the Eden of Blessed Insight be merely a false avatar? The Cremators spread even more terrifying information: Fuli has long since perished, THEIR powers broken, while the Garden of Recollection had usurped divine authority to manipulate the masterless Path.
However, masterless Paths do not exhibit tidal energy fluctuations, and fallen Aeons would no longer gaze upon any pathstrider. The Remembrance and Fuli do not fit these criteria. Yet THEY rarely manifest THEMSELVES, leaving only THEIR crystal-like silhouette reflected across the cosmos. Perhaps, as Adrian Spencer Smith once said, "Do not ask where a shadow dwells. You should seek the light that casts it, beyond THEIR throne."
