角色故事•四(解锁条件:角色等级80) 「也许…这就是在奥赫玛度过的最后一天了……」
在苦旅的尽头,她终于寻到冥界的线索,前往那或许有来无回的地方之前,她还想再好好看一眼世界。
那是黄金裔的浴池。
她记得阿格莱雅曾在氤氲的水汽中,将精心修补的手套送给她。
「蝶,和第一次见面相比,你变了许多呢。」
她惊喜地触摸着手套上美丽的花纹,那平日淡漠的领袖微笑着向她眨了眨眼。
「即使是如今的我,也能看到你那被寒冷包裹着的、炽热的心……」
那是屋后静谧的花园,它已被塑造成了她梦中的模样。
在那时空错乱的梦中,她常常遇到另一个自己,她们一同在花园中耕作,培育,直到荒芜的土地变为盛大的花海。
「但愿在未来,我也能如此播种希望……」
那是她为曾在指尖逝去的生命立下的纪念碑。
从哀地里亚的逝者,到逐火之旅的黄金裔…千年以来,她尝试记住每一个人的名字和过去。
「有人记着,就不算真正的逝去。」
那是她初见开拓者的地方。
相遇是一件多么神奇的事,她想,往日见惯的街道,因为人而有了特别的意义。
「阁下,我一定会用我的双手,为你带来……」
门扉时将近,约定启程的时刻也将到来。
在那热烈的阳光下,她许下最初的、也是最后的心愿:以那寒冷而漫长的一生作为开端,她将与她/他一同写下——
一首以真正的拥抱作为句点的、名为「遐蝶」的诗篇。
Character Story: Part IV • Unlocked at Character Level 80
"Maybe... this will be my last day in Okhema." At the end of a bitter journey, she finally found the clues about the nether realm. Before she headed to the place of no return, she wanted to look carefully at the world again.
That was the Chrysos Heir's bath. She remembered how Aglaea once, in the thick steam, gave her a pair of gloves that she had carefully fixed. "Cas, you've changed quite a lot, compared to the first time we met." She touched the beautiful patterns on the gloves in surprise, and the usually indifferent leader smiled as she winked at her. "Even the present me can see your scorching heart beneath the frigid cold..."
That was the serene garden behind the house, shaped like how it looked in her dreams. In that chaotic dream, she often met her other self. They tilled and nurtured the garden together, until the barren soil transformed into a lush ocean of flowers. "I wish that I can still sow seeds of hope like this in the future." That was the monument she erected for the lives once lost at her fingertips. From the deceased in Aidonia, to the Chrysos Heirs in the Flame-Chase Journey... Over a thousand years, she tried to remember everyone's name and past. "If someone still remembers, they are not truly dead."
That was where she first met Trailblazer. Encounters are such miraculous things, she thought. The streets that she was so familiar with in the past had gained a special meaning because of someone else. "My lady, with my own hands, I will definitely bring you..."
As the Entry Hour draws near, the time for the promised departure is also nigh. Under the blazing sunlight, she made her first and last wish: With the freezing and arduous life as a beginning, she will write with (him/her)—
A poem titled "Castorice," which ends with a true embrace.

角色故事·其一 (解锁条件:角色等级20) 「可以把翅膀慢慢打开,对…就像我们上次做的那样,配合医生一起深呼吸哦!」 「放松一点,没问题的…嗯,翼展变宽啦,你在很努力地吃饭,对不对?」 毛茸茸的脑袋被烛光衬得暖烘烘的,女孩抱起小马,轻轻地放在体重秤上。
「放心吧,很快你就能和其他翼兽长得一样又高又壮的,嗯?」 戴上听诊器,女孩开始各项检查,她触碰到小马肋下新的「伤口」。 「你受伤了?」
她摩挲着小马的翅膀,小心翼翼地将棉花塞进松落的裂口,又取出针线。 「会有一点疼,但别担心,我扎针很稳…… 「你又拼命训练了吗?是因为有很多人和你说,你的母亲,祖母,还有好多厉害的先辈,一个腾飞就能飞到天上,一个冲撞便能撞碎岩石? 「大家期待你会成为如雷霆一样的英雄,可不管训练多久,你好像都只能让他们失望…… 「就好像…你和他们完全不一样……」
小马一动不动,黑溜溜的眼珠看着窗外。 划破天幕的雷鸣仍在远空回荡,那是天空城邦的英雄与他们的翼兽掀起的风暴。 「偷偷告诉你一个秘密…我和你一样……」
在那孤独昏暗的病房,养病已久的女孩抱着玩偶,拿着针线,第一百次演练父亲教习的医术——
「但也许…不一样的光芒,也有它存在的意义……」

"Slowly spread your wings... yes, just like we did last time. Breathe deeply together with the doctor, okay?" "Relax a little. It's all fine... hmm, your wingspan has grown! You've been eating well, haven't you?" The candlelight cast a warm glow on the fluffy little head as the girl picked up the pony and gently placed it on the scale.
"Don't worry. Soon you'll be just as tall and strong as the other winged beasts, okay?" Putting on the stethoscope, the girl began her examination. As she touched the pony's side, she felt a new "wound" beneath its ribs. "You're hurt?"
She gently stroked the pony's wings, carefully stuffing cotton into the loosened crack before taking out a needle and thread. "It'll hurt a little, but don't worry, my stitches are steady..." "You've been training too hard again, haven't you? Because so many people keep telling you about your mother, your grandmother, and all the great ancestors? How they could soar into the sky with a single leap, and how they could shatter rock with a single charge?" "Everyone expects you to become a hero like thunder itself, but no matter how much you train, it feels like you only let them down..." "Like you're completely different from them..."
The pony remained still, its dark, glossy eyes gazing out the window. The thunder that tore through the sky still echoed in the distance, a storm stirred by the heroes of the sky city and their winged beasts. "Let me tell you a secret... I'm just like you..."
In that lonely, dimly lit ward, the girl, bedridden for so long, clutched her doll and needle, practising for the hundredth time the medical techniques her father had taught her.
"But maybe... a different kind of light has its own meaning too..."

角色故事·其二 (解锁条件:角色等级40) 同其他医者一样,女孩许下治愈所有人的愿望。 她想抚慰世界倾覆下凡人的惨痛,可当黑潮将城邦吞没,瘟疫包围重伤的人群,她只能驱散疫病,而无法停止绝望的蔓延。 「或许,一名好的医师,需要的远不止灵验的药草……」
「乳色的窗帘要能透光,床要软硬适中,床头摆好新鲜的花束…这样在房间里也能看到和外面一样的『色彩』……」 她想为末世中的人们带来希望,一缕从未来照入的光。
于是伴着安神的香薰,一位弥留之际的少女在温暖舒适的房间中喃喃自语,尘封许久的记忆慢慢复苏。 「爸爸送我八音盒的那天,外面也下着淅淅沥沥的小雨。我听着叮叮当当的旋律,在滴滴答答的雨声中度过了最美好的生日…… 「我还记得,白玫瑰开满了街道,刮风的时候,就像在下一场香气扑鼻的大雪…… 「还有那片天空,越来越深的蓝色中落着一点橙红…」她回忆着,「然后那些透明的泡泡环绕着我,就像…… 就像现在一样……」
滴答,滴答—— 时针在回忆中走动,叙说的声音逐渐低弱。 那流动不息的雨声中,只余一声满足的叹息。
「嘟嘟……」小伊卡低垂着头,懊丧地趴在小马玩偶旁。 「小伊卡,听到了嘛…她看到了我们创造的天空呢……」 房间的天花板上,夕阳落入海中。
她握着少女逐渐冰冷的手,晶莹的眼泪滑过脸庞。 「以后,我们一定能把它变得更宽广,更温暖……」 「嘟!」

Like all healers, the girl made a vow to cure everyone. She wished to soothe the suffering of mortals as the world collapsed, but when the black tide swallowed city-states and plague surrounded the wounded, she could only drive away disease — she could not stop despair from spreading. "Perhaps, to be a good physician, one needs far more than just effective medicine..."
"Milky-white curtains should let in the light, the bed should be firm yet soft, and fresh flowers should be placed by the bedside... that way, even inside the room, they can see the same 'colors' as outside..." She wanted to bring hope to those in the final days, a ray of light shining in from the future.
Accompanied by the soothing scent of incense, a girl on the verge of passing murmured in the warmth and comfort of the room, as long-sealed memories slowly resurfaced. "The day my father gave me a music box, it was also drizzling outside. I listened to the chimes of its melody, spending the most wonderful birthday amidst the pitter-patter of the rain... "I still remember how white roses bloomed all along the streets, and when the wind blew, it was like a snowfall filled with fragrance... "And that sky, a deepening blue with a touch of orange-red falling within it," she reminisced, "and then those transparent bubbles surrounded me, just like... just like they are now..."
Tick-tock, tick-tock... The clock hands moved through memories as the voice telling them grew weaker. In the ever-flowing sound of rain, only a single sigh of content remained.
"Du du..."Little Ica lowered its head, dejectedly curling up beside the plush pony. "Little Ica, did you hear that... She saw the sky we created..." On the ceiling of the room, the setting sun sank into the sea.
She held the girl's gradually cooling hand, crystal-clear tears slipping down her face. "One day, we'll make it even wider, even warmer..." "Du!"

角色故事·其三 (解锁条件:角色等级60) 奥赫玛,英雄汇聚之地,末世最后的希望所在。 「逐火之旅」,「火种」,「泰坦」…即便已熟悉那些酷烈灼热的名词,当别人称她为英雄时,她仍是挥挥手。 「我只是一名医师而已。」 她对每个来到庭院的人都那么说。
悲伤的少女来询问那被死亡之泰坦波及的「顽疾」。 「蝶宝,那才不是病呢!你还有很多事可以尝试!」 她常常和少女一同观鸟观星,制作标本和奇美拉玩偶。看到少女脸上的笑容,她也会感到温暖。
她知晓冷冽的织者和高傲的学者之间的不和。 在那崭新的调解室,她为织者准备了最爱的燕麦粥,学者批改论文时必备的气泡山葵醋,并请来资历最老的半神—— 「如果他们不来,我就…派小伊卡天天在他们耳边嘟嘟嘟!」
她在昏光庭院播下石榴的种子,种下一方麦草,开辟一片花海,让每一位从远方来到奥赫玛的异乡人,都能在此放下心结,畅所欲言。 「希望点滴的善意,能消融族群之间长久的心病。」
她总放心不下那不断磨损的半神。 「小风堇…踏上逐火之旅的第一天,*我们*就已经想到这一天啦……」 她们总是如此说。 「即便能为你们减少一丝痛苦也好…我再去树庭的图书馆查查资料吧……」 她也总是如此做。 ……
天空的后裔,悬锋的族人,奥赫玛的原贵族,哀地里亚的圣女,哀丽秘榭的战士,雅努萨波利斯的圣女…小小的庭院中,各色融汇成一道虹光。 但闲暇的片刻,她也会想到旅途的尽头。 「到那时候,我…还能做些什么呢?」
Character Story: Part III • Unlocked at Character Level 60
Okhema, the gathering place of heroes, the last hope in the end times. "The Flame-Chase Journey," "The Coreflame," "The Titans"... Even though she had long grown familiar with these fierce and burning names, when others called her a hero, she would simply wave it off. "I'm just a physician." That was what she told everyone who came to the courtyard.
The sorrowful girl came seeking answers about the "incurable ailment" inflicted by the Death Titan. "Cassie, that's not an illness at all! There's still so much for you to experience!" She often accompanied the girl in birdwatching and stargazing, crafting specimens and chimera plush toys. Seeing the smile on the girl's face, she, too, felt warmth.
She was well aware of the discord between the cold weaver and the proud scholar. In the newly established mediation room, she prepared the weaver's favorite oatmeal, the scholar's essential fizzy horseradish vinegar for grading papers, and invited the eldest demigod. "If they refuse to come, then... I'll have Little Ica du-du-du in their ears every single day!"
She sowed pomegranate seeds in the Twilight Courtyard, planted a field of wheatgrass, and cultivated a sea of flowers, creating a place where every traveler arriving in Okhema could set down their burdens and speak freely. "I hope that small acts of kindness can melt away the long-standing wounds between our peoples."
She could never stop worrying about that ever-corroding demigod. "Cinny... From the very first day we set out on the Flame-Chase Journey, we already knew this day would come..." That was what they always said. "Even if I can ease just a fraction of your pain... I'll go check the library in the Grove again..." And that was what she always did. ...
The Heirs of the Sky, the Kremnoans, the original aristocrats of Okhema, the Holy Maiden of Aidonia, the warrior of Aedes Elysiae, the Holy Maiden of Janusopolis... In the small courtyard, all their colors merged into a radiant rainbow. Yet in rare moments of leisure, she would also ponder the journey's end. "When that time comes... what else will I be able to do?"

角色故事·其四 (解锁条件:角色等级80) 「『光历████年,机缘月』风堇医师 展信佳。虽然当年姐姐没能挺过来,但姐姐最后在庭院度过的时光…她临走前的微笑一直温暖着我的梦境。我想跟您说,今天我也正式成了一名医师,我想像您一样,去帮助那些在末世中煎熬的人们,希望在这长夜中,我也能成为一盏小小的灯……」
「『光历████年,门关月』堇宝 …真的很感谢你这段时间的陪伴。当我蜷缩在昏光庭院治疗室的时候,你允许我的悲伤像积雨一样堆积又蒸发,当我说自己『天气不好』时,你又完整地包容了我…或许,我也应该更勇敢一点……」
「『光历████年,自由月』风堇女士 小家伙们都恢复得很好,特别是那位上次吵着要喝石榴汁的奥赫玛小战士。城邦间的宿仇很难很快消除,但我现在相信,不同的色彩也能共存。」
「『光历████年,长夜月』风堇助教 感谢你执着的提醒,我会考虑和她缓和关系。当然,完全是看在你的面子上……」
「『光历████年,哀悼月』风堇小姐 不必费心为我寄来新的药剂了,我自知人性的流失已无法挽回。你也不必担心,我们与树庭的关系并非降至冰点……」
「『光历████年,欢喜月』风堇女士 我从来没有想过,家乡的麦种能有一天重新发芽。躺在昏光庭院的花园,又像是回到了哀丽秘榭一样。每次心情低落的时候,闻闻这里的麦香,我就又有干劲了!」
「『光历████年,长昼月』小风堇 人们总称赞以前包容烈阳与惊雷的天空,*我们*却觉得你比那样的天空更温柔。无论*我们*明天将去向何处,*我们*一定会永远、永远记得你!」
从满溢的箱中露出的几封信件,被珍藏在诊疗记录册旁。 在旅程之初,女孩微弱的光似乎旋即会被黑暗吞没,然而在启程成为明日的天空前——
在她走过的地方,晴空早已不知不觉绽开了第一缕笑颜。

"'Light Calendar ████, Month of Fortune' To Physician Hyacine I hope this letter finds you well. Although my sister couldn't make it back then, the last days she spent in the courtyard... and the smile she gave before she left... have always warmed my dreams. I wanted to tell you that today, I have officially become a physician. I want to be like you, to help those who suffer in the final days. I hope that in this long night, I too can become a small, guiding light..."
"'Light Calendar ████, Month of Gate' To Little Cinny ...I'm truly grateful for your companionship during this time. When I was curled up in the Twilight Courtyard's infirmary, you allowed my sorrow to pile up like storm clouds and then evaporate. When I said my 'weather was bad,' you embraced me completely... Perhaps, I should try to be a little braver too..."
"'Light Calendar ████, Month of Freedom' To Lady Hyacine The little ones have all recovered well, especially that young Okheman warrior who was fussing about wanting pomegranate juice last time. The feuds between city-states are not easy to dissolve quickly, but now I believe that different colors can coexist."
"'Light Calendar ████, Month of Evernight' To Assistant Instructor Hyacine Thank you for your persistent reminders. I will consider mending my relationship with her. Of course, this is only for your sake..."
"'Light Calendar ████, Month of Mourning' To Miss Hyacine There is no need to trouble yourself by sending me new medicine. I am well aware that the loss of my humanity is beyond recovery. And you need not worry, our relationship with the Grove has not reached a breaking point..."
"'Light Calendar ████, Month of Joy' To Lady Hyacine I never thought that the wheat seeds from my homeland would sprout again one day. Lying in the garden of the Twilight Courtyard, it almost feels like being back in Aedes Elysiae. Whenever I feel down, the scent of wheat here gives me the strength to keep going!"
"'Light Calendar ████, Month of Everday' To Cinny People always praise the sky of the past for embracing both blazing suns and roaring thunder, but we think you are even gentler than that sky. No matter where we go tomorrow, we will always, always remember you!"
A few letters spilling out from an overflowing box were carefully preserved beside the medical records. At the beginning of her journey, the girl's faint light seemed as though it would be swallowed by the darkness at any moment. Yet, before she set forth to become the sky of tomorrow...
In the places she passed through, the clear sky had already unknowingly unfolded its first gentle smile.
