角色故事•二(解锁条件:角色等级40)
「亲爱的妹妹:
寄来的唱片我已收到,我跟着弹了几首,十分精彩。现在匹诺康尼的唱片店人满为患,街上到处都是你的新专辑海报,好多人总是向我赞美你,并打听是否能拿到你的签名。
你最近不回来也好。现在的匹诺康尼今时不同往昔,逐梦客蜂拥而入,经济像井喷一样发展,但梦境也比以前混乱多了,换作以前,我不曾想到「铎音」会面临如此艰巨的挑战。
企业家为了垄断行业,制定了极其不合理的工作时间,梦境里的工人经常要连续工作十二个系统时才能休息,但到手的却只有一笔微薄的工资。投机和高风险产业遍布匹诺康尼,逐梦客们为了泡沫般的愿望来到这里,最终却成了流浪汉中的一员……
此前一位偷渡客向我求助,说他倾尽所有才能留在匹诺康尼,却被猎犬家系发现。他向我保证日后一定会还清自己的所有欠债,因此我才向猎犬家系请求,对他网开一面。只是每当我想到这样的人在匹诺康尼还有许多,便不免怀疑是否所有人都能做出正确的选择。
算算日期,信寄到的时候你应该也要启程开始下一轮巡演了。匹诺康尼的事你不必心,我知道你心地善良,但不是所有人都如你这般。一定记得保护好自己。
你永远的后盾
星期日」

Character Story: Part II
• Unlocked at Character Level 40
"To my dearest sister:
I received the records you sent and played along with a few songs — they were wonderful. The record store on Penacony is now bustling with activity, and posters of your new album are adorning the streets everywhere. There are so many people complimenting you and asking if they can get your autograph.
It's probably for the best that you're not coming back right now. Penacony has changed. Dreamchasers are flocking in, and the economy is booming like never before. However, the Dreamscape has become much more chaotic than it used to be. I never would have imagined that the Bronze Melodia would face such significant challenges.
Entrepreneurs have imposed extremely unreasonable working hours to monopolize the industry, forcing workers in the Dreamscape to work twelve-hour shifts before they can take a break — only to receive meager paychecks in return. Speculative and high-risk industries are all over Penacony, where dreamchasers arrive with lofty aspirations, only to find themselves among the destitute...
Recently, a stowaway approached me for help, explaining that he had spent everything he had just to stay on Penacony, only to be discovered by the Bloodhound Family. He assured me that he would repay all his debts later, which is why I asked the Bloodhound Family to show him some leniency. However, every time I consider how many others like him there are on Penacony, I can't help but wonder if everyone has the opportunity to make the right choices.
If I've calculated correctly, you should be starting your next concert tour by the time this letter reaches you. You don't have to worry about Penacony. I know you are a kind person, but not everyone shares your heart. Always remember to take care of yourself.
There For You Always,
Sunday"
