How nice of you to put spoilers in the video title, ignore Firefly crying in the tumbnail and the huge ass texts saying "REALLY DEAD?". Real 200 IQ moment.
when you first meet archeron and she uses the sword to "banish" us from the dreamscape the sword has a symbol that is eerie similar with the eyes of death.
Some weird thing I noticed that I don't think anyone has talked about yet is that the first dream bubble scene with Pom Pom judging us where we can choose who's voice we want to take is almost exactly an alternative version in narrative to the Jepella Rebellion interrogation against Kafka. The trailer is titled "Scene 47", yet Pom Pom mentions 46 different cases of what we've done, similar to Kafka's interrogation. The kind of judgement and theme put upon us is also quite similar to what is happening in that trailer. I do not know WHY or HOW they are connected with each other, but it oddly sticked out a lot.
There's the star rail video! =D Also you can thank Our Dearest friend Shaoji (Honkai impact 3rd Lead writer) for the "heartwarming and uplifting" Story!
Idk how relevant this detail is, but "Misha" is a diminutive of the Russian name "Mikhail." Just wanted to put that out there because Misha conveniently appears during several important events (e.g., entering Penacony, The Reverie, Firefly and Acheron meeting). Then we enter a dreamscape that keeps on calling "Mikhail". The game is also very insistent on following Sparkle's movements closely like her importance is heavy, but remember that her whole character theme is that of a red herring. Everyone is misdirecting us, and Sparkle seems to be at the forefront. Also, just like Clockie, no one actually sees Misha. It's an easy detail to gloss over because it just seems like everyone ignores him.
@@kyokosakura3192 that almost aligns with Firefly's theory that the Watchmaker was a Nameless. The invitation had the distress signal that only the Nameless know of. Misha's grandfather was known for being an intergalactic adventurer and hinted to be good at creating and fixing things.
Doesn't Himeko and Welt talk about Misha at one point? Not by name but they mention him still. Also checked his character story and people talk to him at some point so... dunno? where do u people get he's not able to be seen by others? You're not the first one I've found to say it
@@Lmondrpz you must be misremembering because not at any point in the story did Welt and Himeko mention Misha. The only instance they talk in detail was about the invitation's distress signal. Also, his character story is still a bit of a mystery. Ofc, we can't assume he's been invisible his entire life. If anything, his story adds more questions to his identity.
@@StranglerSix Assuming that's the case, maybe it's possible that the grandfather is the nameless whose memory bubble we got? In general, I feel like the trashcan incident is a huge allegory to Penacony as a whole. The Trash Prince is probably referring to Misha, and we know that he basically trapped in another form by Tatalov, the Trash King. When Trash Prince is freed, he decides to avenge his father, but if we read the trash interactions in Boulder Town, it's implied that the Trash King is the Trash Prince's father figure (I'm saying father figure because the specific words used were "I raised you," not "I am your father") Then, if Misha is the Trash Prince, who is Tatalov? One of the official trailers seems to imply it is the Watchmaker. The Trash King turned all evil because he was distracted by an object from the "skies" (or something by the lines of that). That sounds a lot like Cocolia's case, and it is further confirmed by the fact that the Trailblazer, who contains a Stellaron, literally fell out of the sky early on in the story. So it seems that the Watchmaker had to deal with some Stellaron trouble. But then I'm kind of confused because we know that Penacony dealt with the Stellaron, ruining their relationship with the IPC in the progress, and from the way things sound, it seems like a recent event.
The reason why that first Akivili dream bubble is important is because we get a full confirmation that Aha was a Trailblazer. how do we know this? Because it was Aha who blew up half the Astral Express train cabins, and in the dream sequence, we get confirmation from Pom-Pom that there was an Astral Express Trailblazer passenger that was "worse" than Akivili, the one who destroyed half the entire train. I mean, technically we already knew this, but we also really didn't know the timeline for this. It shows that Akivili was still alive much closer than we anticipated and puts into perspective how far out they were from when the three crewmates left the train to be on Penacony. Remember, the Astral Express was found nearly completely destroyed by Himeko who fixed it up and became its Navigator fairly recently.
Also, hot take, but misha is definitely related to the watchmakers legacy. As he is aware of and can see clockie and the birds who we also see in the "real" Penacony who hint they are protecting clockies home. Also, his eyes are literally keyholes, so....ya.
Also there is theory that other than us no one cominicated with misha personaly. Like in most situations people other than us ignor him. When you meet acheron with misha you can choose that you know all of them, and firefly ask what we mean by them as if she also don't see misha.
actually people have noticed something regarding this, and its actually that Acheron is sensing Misha, Not Clockie, as she's actually looking directly at where Misha should be in that scene when she says she senses someone. that gangster mob scene also has what seems to be a translation error as they say "Him" in english, while saying "Her" in other languages. so in EN it looks like they're referring to Misha, but because Misha cannot be seen at all(more evident when he doesn't say anything else while Acheron and Firefly are talking after the mob leaves), they're actually referring to Acheron.
This story was actually the most engrossed ive been yet in the entirety of Star Rail, i just loved it so much with all the elements within it that kinda just meshed so well together and it wasnt boring at all. Firefly genuinely made me so happy and excited for the story ever since i saw her in the trailers and the ost mv for white knight. And i fell in love with her in the story. My heart ached when she told us about her illness. and it broke when... *THAT* scene happened.... I still can't believe it man. But then after all that Sam showing up and being all epic too, the fight scene of Sam vs Acheron was sick too. So many emotions, it reminds me when i was playing Honkai Impact all over again. Thanks alot Shaoji. seriously though, he's such a good story writer. Even if he has traumatized so many of us. I genuinely can't wait for the next part of the story to be released, i need to know what happens to Firefly, more on Acheron and what Aoen she is an emanator of (and the Aeon itself), Sam in general, and of course just waiting on when we gonna get Hat Trailblazer. So hyped.
@@titaniummechsx3324 Wait what? This felt like exactly that. We knew her for all of an hour or two, hung out with her touring a few zones, then just like our last planetary guide, but in 1/100th the time, she was killed. We spent almost no time with her, and know almost nothing about her, or even if she's anything more than a set of memories. Nothing about her story or fate felt earned or impactful. I felt way more impact from Dan Shu, Todd, TY Kluzer, etc. and their deaths, as we actually know more about each of them and spent about as much if more time with them.
Thankgod you made a video about this. I was confused with the story at some point. Now im getting more insight details in just 10 mins of the videos. Subbed and will wait for future explanations.
putting this 8:37 song as your parlor car's music is such a vibe, i'll make sure it's playing in the background when she ( hopefully ) becomes playable one day and i'm pulling for her
Spoilers from the black swan + sparkle character quest we learn that death in the dreamscape is basically waking up. Which make sense for sunday's indifferent reaction at the end. But I think bcs of the whole it's dramatic actual death vibe they gave us, ig the death in the memory zone meme/caused by the death monster can cause some physical harm to their actual body in reality. Maybe robin was killed by the monster before which caused her voice irl to b off. This is just a guess. Fun fact, u can actually tells that sampo isn’t sampo right off the bat when he mistook firefly as march.
What? Sunday isn't even remotely indifferent; the dude is barely containing his rage, and effectively tells Sparkle to "fck off" with mocking his dead sister. What we actually learn is that Something Unto Death brings "spiritual death," which mirrors their ability in-combat to one-shot characters and effectively kidnap their soul. This is also why Sunday is so angry but in control; he knows that his sister is effectively half-dead but that there’s still something that can be done about it. The reason Robin’s voice is off is the same as to why Sampo’s voice is off: in both cases it’s actually Sparkle. Also, what we learnt in the BW/Sparkle companion quest is that Firefly most likely faked her own death and used Sam as an excuse to erase any possible evidence.
@@pakboris2268 The dude straight up rants and monologues about how the vengeance of Harmony is coming and that the ‘malefactors’ will be destroyed. The only way Sunday can come off as indiferent is if someone plays on mute and skips the dialogue, really.
This 1st part of Penacony arc is really good, on paper. Its just bogged down by a lot of side quests that should have been adventure missions or event missions. They did this shit too with the Trailblaze Continuance with Ruan Mei and is just as annoying
I think he doesn't ignores us, but rather, he already knows us (just like the other Stellaron Hunters), so his attention is focused in scanning the two unknown people.
Misha is the key to the legacy, only trailblazer can see him at the reception lobby. He is the only person we met at the entrance of the dream and he is closely related to Clockie and only trailblazer and him can see Clockie.
What if Pom Pom is Akivili or at least what remains of them? The memory was supposed to be The Trailblaze's or at least about the aeon and as they are bound to their philosophy, it would make sense for The Trailblaze to be angry for the several crimes(?) that "Akivili?" committed
I think Acheron is experiencing multiple realities, so the red text is (imo) something that indicates that the realities are overlapping - in one reality that *is* her room while in the current one it isn't, and she intervened because she is weary of Aventurine.
The whole “Family” thing feels like a cult.. What if Sunday changes his mind and accepts Sparkle’s offer of her taking Robin’s place because he starts putting the cult (the family) over his own sister and starts becoming more corrupt..
A little detail I read from some more Russian-informed comments. "Misha" is actually the diminutive of "Mikhail", so that whole map of "A child's dream"? Very likely related to Misha. Also, am I the only one who thought the voice in that section was really similar to Firefly?
Sunday said the memory zone creature brings spiritual death specifically rather than actual death so I think Firefly is still technically alive in the real world. Whether or not she can be 'spiritually revived' I'm not as sure about. They put in a lot of scenes and dialogue afterwards that makes it seem like she's permanently gone, so if they revive her I'm worried it will be done in a way that feels cheap.
@@darknessknows1235 Well, that does make some sense. We still don’t know why Robin’s voice was off then. It was mentioned even by March that Robin didn’t sound like she was in top shape. That detail shouldn’t be overlooked. Sparkle shouldn’t have known Robin died yet, which is why she tried talking to Sunday using his sister as a disguise. Sunday also mentions that, and it’s how he finds out the Robin that came up to him was a Fool. But it also implies still that Sparkle could have been impersonating Robin even when Robin was still alive. Or, simply, Sparkle didn’t care or bother to remember the details. She’s a Fool after all. She doesn’t particularly care to memorize everything.
Just a hunch but I think everyone's gonna die in Penacony, I could be wrong tho Star Rail WHITE NIGHT lyrics: I don't wanna be alone tonight Oh, bring me to the other side There's no one else left for me to lose Going to the other side I don't wanna be alone tonight I'll bring you to my best disguise 'Cause I don't need, don't need to know the truth Let me rave forever in your lies
10:42 Actually when the game said "seem like everyone has disappered" I ran around and was able to find SOME people, mostly the ones that you can get quests from, probably the game forgot to remove all people or something.
I call it now penacony is in fact a prison created by the watchmaker who dreams it's existance and we are in a dream even in reality until he wakes up and shows penacony for what it truly is that's when we will need the power of the harmony to rescue everyone there. Firefly and Sam are the same person however the girl or better said firefly has a split personality thats why both of them dream together Sam/Firefly will reach there true potential when they accept eachother in the dreamscape or sam accepts he is firefly making him turn into his true form with the firefly wings like in the trailer against archeon who at this point is maybe the reason the watchmaker is about to wake up
@@AquaYEE well I believe firefly/Sam are the same person dreaming and since it is a split personality it seems that Sam uses fire because of hatred from the inferno that destroyed the hometown of firefly I believe that they will merch together again and become whole again once they accept themselfs again making Sam having the firefly wings like in the trailer and not using hatred anymore So in short the person who sleeps atm has a split personality one firefly the one who wants to live in the dream because of her illness the other Sam a cold ruthless robot that has not a fragile body anymore like it's pilot both are the same Pretty sure she developed the other personality because of being the pilot of Sam the robot is not fragile like her
@@Dante1282 I guess so I just believe that since she talked about the illness of her condition that makes your body weaker and weaker that once she became the pilot of Sam she developed the second personality because Sam is strong and won't decay like her weak human body which makes this all the more tragic tbh That's why if that person dreams two sides of her are in the dream the weak girl and the strong robot piloted by her
@@lordzaradon6956 one of the leaked voice line says something like I wanted to meet you as firefly first sorry for decdiving you. Implyng they are the same person /mind
My and caelus heart is broken , must find who did that things and get revenge 🔥 i trust in black swan only💍 i was looking for a lore video glad i found yours
@@DawitsLookingforEmilia Did you go back and visit Firefly's "Secret Base"? There's some possibly telling things in the interaction with the location...
5:05 if Dr. Edward said is true and the memory bubble contains a memory of Akivili. That means one of the 2 people in the memory bubble is Akivili, and it's certainly not the 2nd worst nameless. Is this another hint or perhaps confirmation that Pom-Pom IS Akivili?
Based on the dream it hinted that Akivili blow up half of the train but we know the worst one is the person who blow up the entire train. And we actually know who is he, it Aha himself, you can find it in simulation universe info about Aha
@@noiko4418 akivili is hinted to blow up half the train? i think you need dr ratio help. something is wrong with your brain. It was Aha who blew up the train, not Akivili. Aha and Akivili are different aeons.
@@someoneinasia never in my pervious comment said aha is Akivili tho? I state that Akivili blow up half of the train but there the worst one (who is Aha). The dream state Akivili isn't the worst one, you just trying to add fuel to a non existence flame. After rewatching it, there no where state that Akivili blow up half but mess up alot of thing. Maybe you are the one need to read more
Here's some of my complete crackpot theories and thoughts after 2.0 - Firefly and Sam are heavily connected. I think Sam might be an AI or something inside the mech suit, and Firefly can't exist outside the suit in the real life, but in dream they can be separate. Theres way too many similarities/connections between Firefly and Sam for them to not have some significance. Also, no chance Firefly is actually dead. - Acheron is probably emanator of Xipe, also I feel like there is a connection between her and Something unto death, as they share the eye design. I think Acheron will be the main "villain" for Penacony, though I don't think she's evil. - I think from the moment we jump with the train in the beginning, we are in the dream world, and everything from that point on is a dream, even the parts we are told are reality. I think it has something to do with the dream collapsing and the high concentration of memory particles or whatever they were called around Penacony. - With the emphasis on clocks and time, I think the whole dream might be a timeloop. The dream was designed to have an infinite "Golden Hour" for people to enjoy, but with the dream collapsing it might be trapping everyone inside the loop. I think when Acheron speaks in red, she is talking to us from one loop to another, or somehow influencing the loops. - I think the whole dream is held up by a single "dreamer", maybe Mikhail? I have this feeling whole Penacony is one of those situations of "to have a (dream) utopia for everyone, one person is endlessly suffering." Essentially Mikhail is trapped/forced/made to dream forever to keep the Penacony dream going, but is now waking up and the dream is collapsing.
from what I can gather Acheron is the character that has been built up as the most suspicious individual, she basically so far has the least amount of reason to actually be here and now the mc has been told by Adventurine and Black swan that she is not trustworthy and has been placed as the one who killed robin and, we know she didn't prevent fireflies death and there may be more to that than just a mistake but i believe she is a red herring and that the only character we can actually trust right now in any sense is Black Swan, mainly because she at least believes in the truth of memories and that's why she is with Adventurine because she trusts that what he says is the truth however i don't believe that she is a reliable narrator as we know from her own words that if u are able to change everyone's memories to something then that would in a sense become the truth (we also know other memo keepers are here who probably have similar abilities to her and while it seems memo keepers have an overall goal they all have their own desires). Atm from the side quests it is clear that both the family and IPC are at best dodgy and fairly nefarious at worst, also in the story there is a common factor missing that being a Stellaron, which i believe is the Watchmakers legacy since we know that it is a wish granting Item but more like a monkeys paw than anything else for the most part so basically i think the big bad maybe related to Clockie and the watchmaker as Clockie in the Dreamscape is rather Op and i believe that Acherons memories/emotions have been tampered with within the dreamscape and i do think that its basically a prison as the famly are able to lock memories and the ICP have kept a memory bubble trapped here for information, (we know the ICP are here because they want their Prison back from the Family). in the end i think Black Swan is following what she perceives as the truth and that may or may not be the correct truth Adventurine is just using us basically trying to force us into helping him and Acheron seems to me atleast an important character for the story but isn't the Big Bad but a red herring
Thing to me is when two characters who have now proven to not be trust worthy (black swan lying and betraying us, and aventurine is fucking ipc goon so duh) try to say someone else is untrustworthy ill trust them before I trust those two xD, ultimately tho. Trust Sam before any of them since stelleron hunters are our friend/ need us the most
@@Coref0x well i do trust that Acheron isn't against us and i don't think she killed robin there just isn't enough atm to know why she is here in penacony even if we do believe that she was the one who killed Ifrit and just took his invite which Adventurine may be telling the truth about because it would be an odd thing to lie about, though if that is true that just opens up a new can of worms such as possession, and if Ifrit is similar in nature to heliobus can he even be killed, and Sam is weird since they didn't recognise the trailblazer when we encountered them in the dreamscape (which could mean it wasnt actually Sam who knows) but outside of that should at the least be trustworthy enough to not be against the Mc like all the stelleron hunters so far
A few things that I believe to be true (or at least we can rely on): 1. Firefly's feelings to Trailblazer are genuine. In a sense that she truly enjoys being with Trailblazer and never consider Trailblazer as an enemy. 2. Acheron being a villain is a red herring. Yes, she is sus and hides a lot of things from us. Adventurine's account on Ifrit's death is likely to be true. And the suspect is likely to be Acheron. Everything in regards of Acheron stated by both Black Swan and Adventurine must have had a grain of truth in it. But, Acheron _never_ strikes me as someone who is hostile to Trailblazer. But she is very much likely to be hostile towards Sam. My mind is still a mess, but my gut tells me that I can definitely trust Firefly, and maybe trust Acheron a bit. While the others, I have to put some grains of salt to their narratives.
@@YosepRA tbh i think a lot of time stuff is involved with Acheron and Adventurine to me and even with how Black Swan describes him is someone who can paint a picture with the truth so therefore doesn't really outright lie just uses half truths and his wit to make you draw the conclusions he has designed for you to make.
Re-watching this after finishing penacony, the dream Sunday that placed us onto ACTUALLY started from the train not the reverie meeting Misha. Since we met Acheron in a dream even though we weren't inside the bath thingy.
Having left a comment about the hidden spoiler on the other video, I have to say that I appreciate that you included the alert this time. You earned a sub, ty.
Also I'd like to add that there are 2 other emanators we know of, I'm pretty sure Jing Yuan has received a blessing from Lan through the lightning god he uses, and Diamond of the 10 stone hearts is confirmed to be one although we haven't seen their design yet
The trailblazer for sure is going to be gazed upon by The Nihility next, they’ll feel empty or something along the lines and BAM! That thing takes notice. Probably why Acheron is central in this story. She too has caught IX’s attention.
spoiler the trailblazer will get harmony, leaks suggest that after a *big* fight, the harmony comes to the trailblazer in a dream, helping them sync with the harmony, allows them to "ignore" the said enemy in the *big* fight which will most likely be Acheron. ALSO they get these cool hat attacks :D ( the hat in the white night mv that the Caelus wore with Aventurine )
I think there is a bit of weight to the idea that Firefly IS Sam (the suit is the medical cabin and semi-autonomous). SW is still around and entirely capable of tampering with things to set up a show (Aether editing). The White Knight trailer also has some shots of Firefly that appear to lead into animations of Sam after a few cuts (along with lighting effects that match her color scheme). As a side note, Sam could be an acronym for Semi Autonomous Medical-Cabin. Or Firefly could just be a giant red herring and has little to do with the upcoming plot (actually dead). We will see in a patch or two.
It’s honestly like San Junipero in Black Mirror. She says she’s in an icy medical cabin - is she actually sick in real life and is spending too much time in the dream world? She wanted to “die” to stay?
I’d be sad if Ifrit isn’t playable. He has such a cool design and it’d be a shame for him to hyped up soo much just to die before ever making an appearance in game
What a chad. Choose an angle for thumbnail that didnt spoil too much and puts a spoiler warning in the title and no spoiler itself in it. Your awesome man. Wish more people had this awareness.
I think that Fireflys death was handled poorly. We knew her for like 10 minutes and of those 10 we spent half wondering if she is going to stab us in the back and then they plaster like 46 death flags on her and expect me to be sad when she dies? I do not care about this girl that I barely know and I dont know why the trailblazer would either since I picked all of the "antagonistic" choices towards her so by proxy they should be suspicious of her too lol. And if she is not dead this was all just pointless anyways so its even worse. I think we should have had more time with her tbh.
If you play Lesley and Chadwick's World Quest it's almost confirmed that death in dreamscape =/= death rl (and vice versa), even when the rl one died in dream the "character" can still be alive (Lesley) and even irl he already have like NO BODY at all, he can form a body in dream (Chadwick) Obvious clue enough that Firefly IS still alive but (according to her narration) she has a very weak body irl so i don't think that her form in dream = her form irl so, where is she? looking at the last moment we saw her in Main Quest, she was last seen in the hotel lobby when Trailblazer, Acheron and Black Swan met Sam Atp it's kinda obvious that Firefly = Sam.
Honestly firefly’s death did nothing for me. She’s basically a lying stranger that gave us 1 mediocre tour…. I don’t think her death should warrant all the emotions people think they are “feeling” lol
5:08 not sure if anyone told this here before, but this part have really weird similaritis with Kafka's trailer "Jepella rebelion". Rewatch it, you'll be surprised.
For acheron, I believe its just raiden mei still under the influence of the observers (players choosing dialogue options) the fact that she is an emanator of death and finality also helps my theory
I want to ride or die with Acheron. Imma cope until the end. No way my most anticipated character of the game who I've been waiting for since day 1 last year turns out to be a badie.
I don't get the impression of her being bad, I do get the impression that she causes a lot of pain just by being in proximity to people and she has a lot of guilt over that.
@@ToothpickSamurai yeah, I was actually pretty moved by the care she shows us after Firefly. The way she rushed her words felt like she was very impacted by MC's pain. She also seemed like a responsible type when she took the time to give Firefly a farewell. Like it was her personal duty to do so. Also, the phrase she says about "mercy to an enemy is taking mercy away from yourself but one must be sure of who their enemy is" is a one-to-one line Sakura says in Elysium Realm in Honkai Impact. Definitely the most intriguing character so far.
If the leaks are true which were revealed months ago, I know firefly’s identity and her fate, she’s alive of sorts. She’s connected to someone we have met already
@@ashleyandanime4815 Firefly is the pilot of sam. It Sam that she meant when she spoke about that icy metal tube(dont remember the exact wording) she need in the real world
I'm just confused that it's just dream no? Firefly and Robin should still be alive in reality? Didi I miss out something in the story that mention death in dreamscape = death in reality?
Did anyone notice how when she was questioning us she was kinda talking about nahility what i mean is that her questions might hint that shes an eminator of nahility
@@DawitsLookingforEmilia I didn't notice at first but when I rewached the trailblaze mission I noticed that the questions represent the path of nahility
I think Acheron being an Emanator of Nihility makes a lot of sense, objectively speaking, she follows the path in battle as a playable character, but in a more "probably overthinking stuff" way, you could argue that the thought of death, or more specifically, the thought process of "death comes for us all" is a very nihilistic view of life, possibly being why death apparently follows her so much that she's gained a reputation of bringing it wherever she goes.
We kinda already know that duke inferno is gonna die even before penacony releases cuz of Black swan's myriad celestia trailer duke inferno's card burned forshadowing his death.
I swear to Nanook, I will inject every known status effect from wind shear to f*ckin space aids into that spindly fart of death! It will die slowly, over and over in its damned boss arena! (Good video btw.)
It may be a wild opinion but i think that the normal life Robin was the dreamscape Firefly, it may be stupid or idk i thought of this when i saw my wife (sorry Robin) was dead
probable this is gonna be revealed in the next update but I am confused if Firefly really is dead because she died in a dream just like the trailblazer at the beginning and she woke up right away from the dream, I am confused if I missed something

i never was the sharpest tool in the shed
she still alive , firefly = sampo
when you first meet archeron and she uses the sword to "banish" us from the dreamscape the sword has a symbol that is eerie similar with the eyes of death.
Firefly=Zelda… wait wrong game
Aint the end scene with Sunday explained that Death traps souls?. Meaning firefly is still alive
Some weird thing I noticed that I don't think anyone has talked about yet is that the first dream bubble scene with Pom Pom judging us where we can choose who's voice we want to take is almost exactly an alternative version in narrative to the Jepella Rebellion interrogation against Kafka.
The trailer is titled "Scene 47", yet Pom Pom mentions 46 different cases of what we've done, similar to Kafka's interrogation. The kind of judgement and theme put upon us is also quite similar to what is happening in that trailer. I do not know WHY or HOW they are connected with each other, but it oddly sticked out a lot.
There's the star rail video! =D

Idk how relevant this detail is, but "Misha" is a diminutive of the Russian name "Mikhail."
Just wanted to put that out there because Misha conveniently appears during several important events (e.g., entering Penacony, The Reverie, Firefly and Acheron meeting). Then we enter a dreamscape that keeps on calling "Mikhail". The game is also very insistent on following Sparkle's movements closely like her importance is heavy, but remember that her whole character theme is that of a red herring. Everyone is misdirecting us, and Sparkle seems to be at the forefront.
Also, just like Clockie, no one actually sees Misha. It's an easy detail to gloss over because it just seems like everyone ignores him.
Mikhail is Misha's grandfather. Atleast that's how he calls him in russian translation.
@@kyokosakura3192 that almost aligns with Firefly's theory that the Watchmaker was a Nameless. The invitation had the distress signal that only the Nameless know of. Misha's grandfather was known for being an intergalactic adventurer and hinted to be good at creating and fixing things.

In general, I feel like the trashcan incident is a huge allegory to Penacony as a whole. The Trash Prince is probably referring to Misha, and we know that he basically trapped in another form by Tatalov, the Trash King. When Trash Prince is freed, he decides to avenge his father, but if we read the trash interactions in Boulder Town, it's implied that the Trash King is the Trash Prince's father figure (I'm saying father figure because the specific words used were "I raised you," not "I am your father")
Then, if Misha is the Trash Prince, who is Tatalov? One of the official trailers seems to imply it is the Watchmaker. The Trash King turned all evil because he was distracted by an object from the "skies" (or something by the lines of that). That sounds a lot like Cocolia's case, and it is further confirmed by the fact that the Trailblazer, who contains a Stellaron, literally fell out of the sky early on in the story. So it seems that the Watchmaker had to deal with some Stellaron trouble. But then I'm kind of confused because we know that Penacony dealt with the Stellaron, ruining their relationship with the IPC in the progress, and from the way things sound, it seems like a recent event.
The reason why that first Akivili dream bubble is important is because we get a full confirmation that Aha was a Trailblazer. how do we know this? Because it was Aha who blew up half the Astral Express train cabins, and in the dream sequence, we get confirmation from Pom-Pom that there was an Astral Express Trailblazer passenger that was "worse" than Akivili, the one who destroyed half the entire train. I mean, technically we already knew this, but we also really didn't know the timeline for this. It shows that Akivili was still alive much closer than we anticipated and puts into perspective how far out they were from when the three crewmates left the train to be on Penacony. Remember, the Astral Express was found nearly completely destroyed by Himeko who fixed it up and became its Navigator fairly recently.
How do we know that Aha blew up the train and not somebody other?
@@pakboris2268 Simulated universe info about Aha. It says he inflitrated in the express and blew up an entire planet and half the express
Also, hot take, but misha is definitely related to the watchmakers legacy. As he is aware of and can see clockie and the birds who we also see in the "real" Penacony who hint they are protecting clockies home. Also, his eyes are literally keyholes, so....ya.
Also there is theory that other than us no one cominicated with misha personaly. Like in most situations people other than us ignor him. When you meet acheron with misha you can choose that you know all of them, and firefly ask what we mean by them as if she also don't see misha.
@@islamsalimzhanov4399 that's actually a really good point.
Small detail: Acheron did mention, that she can feel presence of something(Clockie) nearby
actually people have noticed something regarding this, and its actually that Acheron is sensing Misha, Not Clockie, as she's actually looking directly at where Misha should be in that scene when she says she senses someone.
that gangster mob scene also has what seems to be a translation error as they say "Him" in english, while saying "Her" in other languages. so in EN it looks like they're referring to Misha, but because Misha cannot be seen at all(more evident when he doesn't say anything else while Acheron and Firefly are talking after the mob leaves),
they're actually referring to Acheron.
@@MLmaster135 And you can choose phrase "some how you know all of them" when you see acheron with misha and firefly ask who "them"
This story was actually the most engrossed ive been yet in the entirety of Star Rail, i just loved it so much with all the elements within it that kinda just meshed so well together and it wasnt boring at all. Firefly genuinely made me so happy and excited for the story ever since i saw her in the trailers and the ost mv for white knight. And i fell in love with her in the story. My heart ached when she told us about her illness. and it broke when... *THAT* scene happened.... I still can't believe it man. But then after all that Sam showing up and being all epic too, the fight scene of Sam vs Acheron was sick too.
So many emotions, it reminds me when i was playing Honkai Impact all over again. Thanks alot Shaoji. seriously though, he's such a good story writer. Even if he has traumatized so many of us. I genuinely can't wait for the next part of the story to be released, i need to know what happens to Firefly, more on Acheron and what Aoen she is an emanator of (and the Aeon itself), Sam in general, and of course just waiting on when we gonna get Hat Trailblazer. So hyped.
At least we ain’t getting a rushed story with the most random death
@@titaniummechsx3324 Wait what? This felt like exactly that. We knew her for all of an hour or two, hung out with her touring a few zones, then just like our last planetary guide, but in 1/100th the time, she was killed. We spent almost no time with her, and know almost nothing about her, or even if she's anything more than a set of memories. Nothing about her story or fate felt earned or impactful. I felt way more impact from Dan Shu, Todd, TY Kluzer, etc. and their deaths, as we actually know more about each of them and spent about as much if more time with them.

Spoilers from the black swan + sparkle character quest
we learn that death in the dreamscape is basically waking up. Which make sense for sunday's indifferent reaction at the end. But I think bcs of the whole it's dramatic actual death vibe they gave us, ig the death in the memory zone meme/caused by the death monster can cause some physical harm to their actual body in reality. Maybe robin was killed by the monster before which caused her voice irl to b off. This is just a guess. Fun fact, u can actually tells that sampo isn’t sampo right off the bat when he mistook firefly as march.
It is possible that SUD can either really kill people or he can kill conscience and person will remain in coma
Hi hi I do wanna add that it’s clear the the true penocany you can die or else they wouldn’t have their guard up especially BS
What? Sunday isn't even remotely indifferent; the dude is barely containing his rage, and effectively tells Sparkle to "fck off" with mocking his dead sister. What we actually learn is that Something Unto Death brings "spiritual death," which mirrors their ability in-combat to one-shot characters and effectively kidnap their soul. This is also why Sunday is so angry but in control; he knows that his sister is effectively half-dead but that there’s still something that can be done about it.
The reason Robin’s voice is off is the same as to why Sampo’s voice is off: in both cases it’s actually Sparkle.
Also, what we learnt in the BW/Sparkle companion quest is that Firefly most likely faked her own death and used Sam as an excuse to erase any possible evidence.
@@CrusesFear I listened to EN one and played in JP. EN one is much calmer, while JP one can`t wait to tear someone apart

@@DawitsLookingforEmilia Easily got her DOT team is now complete
This 1st part of Penacony arc is really good, on paper. Its just bogged down by a lot of side quests that should have been adventure missions or event missions. They did this shit too with the Trailblaze Continuance with Ruan Mei and is just as annoying
After listening to your summary it really isnt bad. If only i could trim those parts out it would have been a lot better
2:09 why would Acheron have tears in her eyes
thats a damn good question
second question:
is that her make up or is that blood?
@@killerpanda2086 either or it could be blood or just make up
something no one else has mentioned Sam ignores us during the cutscene of his reveal. Just wanted to point that out
As is the case with the other Stellaron Hunters. They aren't antagonistic to the Trailblazer directly but to the people around them.
I think he doesn't ignores us, but rather, he already knows us (just like the other Stellaron Hunters), so his attention is focused in scanning the two unknown people.
Misha is the key to the legacy, only trailblazer can see him at the reception lobby. He is the only person we met at the entrance of the dream and he is closely related to Clockie and only trailblazer and him can see Clockie.
Someone pointed this out, but the planar orb for the Glamoth set and Firefly’s eyes have similar colors
What if Pom Pom is Akivili or at least what remains of them? The memory was supposed to be The Trailblaze's or at least about the aeon and as they are bound to their philosophy, it would make sense for The Trailblaze to be angry for the several crimes(?) that "Akivili?" committed
I think Acheron is experiencing multiple realities, so the red text is (imo) something that indicates that the realities are overlapping - in one reality that *is* her room while in the current one it isn't, and she intervened because she is weary of Aventurine.
0:40 we have met another emanators other than herta, all lord ravagers are emanators of the destruction, so Phantylia is an emanator as well
Why was that Meme beast focusing and going only for Firefly until it killed her? And dead Robin? Why? So many questions and broken heart...
Im starting to understand Otto now
Right
The whole “Family” thing feels like a cult.. What if Sunday changes his mind and accepts Sparkle’s offer of her taking Robin’s place because he starts putting the cult (the family) over his own sister and starts becoming more corrupt..
this would be some sadistic shit lmfao
princess bubblegum was too happy and wholesome to live in a hoyo game I knew it from the music video she is not gonna make it classic hoyo.
So Firefly and Sam are indeed the stellaron hunter Sam?? EITHER WAY SAM BETTER BE A PLAYABLE CHARACTER IN 2.2!!!!!!!!!
sam will be a playable character, there is a 4 star lc you can get in forgotten hall rn for sam
A little detail I read from some more Russian-informed comments. "Misha" is actually the diminutive of "Mikhail", so that whole map of "A child's dream"? Very likely related to Misha. Also, am I the only one who thought the voice in that section was really similar to Firefly?
Sunday said the memory zone creature brings spiritual death specifically rather than actual death so I think Firefly is still technically alive in the real world. Whether or not she can be 'spiritually revived' I'm not as sure about. They put in a lot of scenes and dialogue afterwards that makes it seem like she's permanently gone, so if they revive her I'm worried it will be done in a way that feels cheap.
I just realized, “Robin” was the one who did something with our head to better acclimate with the dream world…
And Robin is freaking Sparkle. ._.
actually, that's likely to still be the real robin. remember that robin met march but Hanabi as sampo didn't realize firefly wasn't march
@@darknessknows1235 Well, that does make some sense. We still don’t know why Robin’s voice was off then. It was mentioned even by March that Robin didn’t sound like she was in top shape. That detail shouldn’t be overlooked.
Sparkle shouldn’t have known Robin died yet, which is why she tried talking to Sunday using his sister as a disguise.
Sunday also mentions that, and it’s how he finds out the Robin that came up to him was a Fool.
But it also implies still that Sparkle could have been impersonating Robin even when Robin was still alive.
Or, simply, Sparkle didn’t care or bother to remember the details. She’s a Fool after all. She doesn’t particularly care to memorize everything.
@@darknessknows1235 is that not the real sampo? we know hes in penacony thanks to black swan's and sparkle's companion quest
@@nitromiyazaki I took it as Sparkle shamelessly imitating Sunday's dead sister, throwing it in his face.
@@Jackie_Tikki_Tavi Could be that too.
Thanks for the explanation and slowing down the clip of the Firefly since I did someone in that cutscene but it went way too fast and only saw Robin
Just a hunch but I think everyone's gonna die in Penacony, I could be wrong tho

Let me rave forever in your lies
this would be insane if the music foretold the story. kinda wonder if anything else is in their
10:42 Actually when the game said "seem like everyone has disappered" I ran around and was able to find SOME people, mostly the ones that you can get quests from, probably the game forgot to remove all people or something.
I call it now penacony is in fact a prison created by the watchmaker who dreams it's existance and we are in a dream even in reality until he wakes up and shows penacony for what it truly is that's when we will need the power of the harmony to rescue everyone there. Firefly and Sam are the same person however the girl or better said firefly has a split personality thats why both of them dream together Sam/Firefly will reach there true potential when they accept eachother in the dreamscape or sam accepts he is firefly making him turn into his true form with the firefly wings like in the trailer against archeon who at this point is maybe the reason the watchmaker is about to wake up
Damn this kinda copium is just what I need rn.. you're definetly onto something with Sam's weird wings in the trailer (not made of fire?)
@@AquaYEE well I believe firefly/Sam are the same person dreaming and since it is a split personality it seems that Sam uses fire because of hatred from the inferno that destroyed the hometown of firefly I believe that they will merch together again and become whole again once they accept themselfs again making Sam having the firefly wings like in the trailer and not using hatred anymore
So in short the person who sleeps atm has a split personality one firefly the one who wants to live in the dream because of her illness the other Sam a cold ruthless robot that has not a fragile body anymore like it's pilot both are the same
Pretty sure she developed the other personality because of being the pilot of Sam the robot is not fragile like her
@@lordzaradon6956not split personality. Firefly is Sam. Sam is the "medical device" she is confined to in the real world so to say.
@@Dante1282 I guess so I just believe that since she talked about the illness of her condition that makes your body weaker and weaker that once she became the pilot of Sam she developed the second personality because Sam is strong and won't decay like her weak human body which makes this all the more tragic tbh
That's why if that person dreams two sides of her are in the dream the weak girl and the strong robot piloted by her

That means one of the 2 people in the memory bubble is Akivili, and it's certainly not the 2nd worst nameless.
Is this another hint or perhaps confirmation that Pom-Pom IS Akivili?
Based on the dream it hinted that Akivili blow up half of the train but we know the worst one is the person who blow up the entire train. And we actually know who is he, it Aha himself, you can find it in simulation universe info about Aha

AHAHAHAHAHAHA
Here's some of my complete crackpot theories and thoughts after 2.0
- Firefly and Sam are heavily connected. I think Sam might be an AI or something inside the mech suit, and Firefly can't exist outside the suit in the real life, but in dream they can be separate. Theres way too many similarities/connections between Firefly and Sam for them to not have some significance. Also, no chance Firefly is actually dead.
- Acheron is probably emanator of Xipe, also I feel like there is a connection between her and Something unto death, as they share the eye design. I think Acheron will be the main "villain" for Penacony, though I don't think she's evil.
- I think from the moment we jump with the train in the beginning, we are in the dream world, and everything from that point on is a dream, even the parts we are told are reality. I think it has something to do with the dream collapsing and the high concentration of memory particles or whatever they were called around Penacony.
- With the emphasis on clocks and time, I think the whole dream might be a timeloop. The dream was designed to have an infinite "Golden Hour" for people to enjoy, but with the dream collapsing it might be trapping everyone inside the loop. I think when Acheron speaks in red, she is talking to us from one loop to another, or somehow influencing the loops.
- I think the whole dream is held up by a single "dreamer", maybe Mikhail? I have this feeling whole Penacony is one of those situations of "to have a (dream) utopia for everyone, one person is endlessly suffering." Essentially Mikhail is trapped/forced/made to dream forever to keep the Penacony dream going, but is now waking up and the dream is collapsing.
from what I can gather Acheron is the character that has been built up as the most suspicious individual, she basically so far has the least amount of reason to actually be here and now the mc has been told by Adventurine and Black swan that she is not trustworthy and has been placed as the one who killed robin and, we know she didn't prevent fireflies death and there may be more to that than just a mistake but i believe she is a red herring and that the only character we can actually trust right now in any sense is
Black Swan, mainly because she at least believes in the truth of memories and that's why she is with Adventurine because she trusts that what he says is the truth however i don't believe that she is a reliable narrator as we know from her own words that if u are able to change everyone's memories to something then that would in a sense become the truth (we also know other memo keepers are here who probably have similar abilities to her and while it seems memo keepers have an overall goal they all have their own desires). Atm from the side quests it is clear that both the family and IPC are at best dodgy and fairly nefarious at worst, also in the story there is a common factor missing that being a Stellaron, which i believe is the Watchmakers legacy since we know that it is a wish granting Item but more like a monkeys paw than anything else for the most part so basically i think the big bad maybe related to Clockie and the watchmaker as Clockie in the Dreamscape is rather Op and i believe that Acherons memories/emotions have been tampered with within the dreamscape and i do think that its basically a prison as the famly are able to lock memories and the ICP have kept a memory bubble trapped here for information, (we know the ICP are here because they want their Prison back from the Family).
in the end i think Black Swan is following what she perceives as the truth and that may or may not be the correct truth Adventurine is just using us basically trying to force us into helping him and Acheron seems to me atleast an important character for the story but isn't the Big Bad but a red herring
Thing to me is when two characters who have now proven to not be trust worthy (black swan lying and betraying us, and aventurine is fucking ipc goon so duh) try to say someone else is untrustworthy ill trust them before I trust those two xD, ultimately tho. Trust Sam before any of them since stelleron hunters are our friend/ need us the most
@@Coref0x well i do trust that Acheron isn't against us and i don't think she killed robin there just isn't enough atm to know why she is here in penacony even if we do believe that she was the one who killed Ifrit and just took his invite which Adventurine may be telling the truth about because it would be an odd thing to lie about, though if that is true that just opens up a new can of worms such as possession, and if Ifrit is similar in nature to heliobus can he even be killed, and Sam is weird since they didn't recognise the trailblazer when we encountered them in the dreamscape (which could mean it wasnt actually Sam who knows) but outside of that should at the least be trustworthy enough to not be against the Mc like all the stelleron hunters so far
A few things that I believe to be true (or at least we can rely on):
1. Firefly's feelings to Trailblazer are genuine. In a sense that she truly enjoys being with Trailblazer and never consider Trailblazer as an enemy.
2. Acheron being a villain is a red herring. Yes, she is sus and hides a lot of things from us. Adventurine's account on Ifrit's death is likely to be true. And the suspect is likely to be Acheron.
Everything in regards of Acheron stated by both Black Swan and Adventurine must have had a grain of truth in it.
But, Acheron _never_ strikes me as someone who is hostile to Trailblazer. But she is very much likely to be hostile towards Sam.
My mind is still a mess, but my gut tells me that I can definitely trust Firefly, and maybe trust Acheron a bit. While the others, I have to put some grains of salt to their narratives.
@@YosepRA tbh i think a lot of time stuff is involved with Acheron and Adventurine to me and even with how Black Swan describes him is someone who can paint a picture with the truth so therefore doesn't really outright lie just uses half truths and his wit to make you draw the conclusions he has designed for you to make.
Re-watching this after finishing penacony, the dream Sunday that placed us onto ACTUALLY started from the train not the reverie meeting Misha. Since we met Acheron in a dream even though we weren't inside the bath thingy.
Having left a comment about the hidden spoiler on the other video, I have to say that I appreciate that you included the alert this time. You earned a sub, ty.
Also I'd like to add that there are 2 other emanators we know of, I'm pretty sure Jing Yuan has received a blessing from Lan through the lightning god he uses, and Diamond of the 10 stone hearts is confirmed to be one although we haven't seen their design yet
diamond is an emanator, but im not sure about jin yuan
The trailblazer for sure is going to be gazed upon by The Nihility next, they’ll feel empty or something along the lines and BAM! That thing takes notice. Probably why Acheron is central in this story. She too has caught IX’s attention.
isnt acheron nihility? could work
and acheron is an emanator. she could give us the power directly
also hertas light cones most recent one is also nihility
spoiler
the trailblazer will get harmony, leaks suggest that after a *big* fight, the harmony comes to the trailblazer in a dream, helping them sync with the harmony, allows them to "ignore" the said enemy in the *big* fight which will most likely be Acheron. ALSO they get these cool hat attacks :D ( the hat in the white night mv that the Caelus wore with Aventurine )
@@roughsofa1420 wait, real? Harmony hat attacks?
I think there is a bit of weight to the idea that Firefly IS Sam (the suit is the medical cabin and semi-autonomous). SW is still around and entirely capable of tampering with things to set up a show (Aether editing). The White Knight trailer also has some shots of Firefly that appear to lead into animations of Sam after a few cuts (along with lighting effects that match her color scheme).
As a side note, Sam could be an acronym for Semi Autonomous Medical-Cabin.
Or Firefly could just be a giant red herring and has little to do with the upcoming plot (actually dead). We will see in a patch or two.
semi autonomous medical cabin gave me a good chuckle
It’s honestly like San Junipero in Black Mirror. She says she’s in an icy medical cabin - is she actually sick in real life and is spending too much time in the dream world? She wanted to “die” to stay?
I’d be sad if Ifrit isn’t playable. He has such a cool design and it’d be a shame for him to hyped up soo much just to die before ever making an appearance in game
What a chad. Choose an angle for thumbnail that didnt spoil too much and puts a spoiler warning in the title and no spoiler itself in it. Your awesome man. Wish more people had this awareness.
I swear to god if Misha is the watchmaker, I will riot...
Probably not him but he is got to have some close relationship with watchmaker. He does has a watch that time stop
I think that Fireflys death was handled poorly. We knew her for like 10 minutes and of those 10 we spent half wondering if she is going to stab us in the back and then they plaster like 46 death flags on her and expect me to be sad when she dies? I do not care about this girl that I barely know and I dont know why the trailblazer would either since I picked all of the "antagonistic" choices towards her so by proxy they should be suspicious of her too lol. And if she is not dead this was all just pointless anyways so its even worse. I think we should have had more time with her tbh.
If you play Lesley and Chadwick's World Quest
it's almost confirmed that death in dreamscape =/= death rl (and vice versa), even when the rl one died in dream the "character" can still be alive (Lesley) and even irl he already have like NO BODY at all, he can form a body in dream (Chadwick)
Obvious clue enough that Firefly IS still alive but (according to her narration) she has a very weak body irl so i don't think that her form in dream = her form irl
so, where is she? looking at the last moment we saw her in Main Quest, she was last seen in the hotel lobby when Trailblazer, Acheron and Black Swan met Sam
Atp it's kinda obvious that Firefly = Sam.
firefly broke me ;-;
her story seems far from over
Honestly firefly’s death did nothing for me. She’s basically a lying stranger that gave us 1 mediocre tour…. I don’t think her death should warrant all the emotions people think they are “feeling” lol

For acheron, I believe its just raiden mei still under the influence of the observers (players choosing dialogue options) the fact that she is an emanator of death and finality also helps my theory

Thanks for the recap! It was great. And it is indeed a terrible day for rain. T_T
Streets never sleep and neither do i 🕴️
I want to ride or die with Acheron. Imma cope until the end. No way my most anticipated character of the game who I've been waiting for since day 1 last year turns out to be a badie.
I don't get the impression of her being bad, I do get the impression that she causes a lot of pain just by being in proximity to people and she has a lot of guilt over that.
@@ToothpickSamurai yeah, I was actually pretty moved by the care she shows us after Firefly. The way she rushed her words felt like she was very impacted by MC's pain. She also seemed like a responsible type when she took the time to give Firefly a farewell. Like it was her personal duty to do so.
Also, the phrase she says about "mercy to an enemy is taking mercy away from yourself but one must be sure of who their enemy is" is a one-to-one line Sakura says in Elysium Realm in Honkai Impact.
Definitely the most intriguing character so far.

Did anyone notice how when she was questioning us she was kinda talking about nahility what i mean is that her questions might hint that shes an eminator of nahility
i think so too
@@DawitsLookingforEmilia I didn't notice at first but when I rewached the trailblaze mission I noticed that the questions represent the path of nahility
I think Acheron being an Emanator of Nihility makes a lot of sense, objectively speaking, she follows the path in battle as a playable character, but in a more "probably overthinking stuff" way, you could argue that the thought of death, or more specifically, the thought process of "death comes for us all" is a very nihilistic view of life, possibly being why death apparently follows her so much that she's gained a reputation of bringing it wherever she goes.
this is more a resume rather than story explained...
This is looking to be Fontaine 2.0 story telling

@@milos829 I at least logged in to get Dr. Ratio lol.
I bet fire fly is Sam and if not I'll actually be shocked
I think Dr. Edward is a reference to Full Metal Alchemist. It kinda resembles the creature in the flask, aka The Father.
Everyone dies, yep
Listening to this story after playing it really shows how high the devs were making this 😂 at least on some parts
Something unto death did not kill Firefly. Her soul and body can still be salvaged.
the trailblazer dies the first time they meet acheron
Yeah Firefly please don't be dead!
I swear to Nanook, I will inject every known status effect from wind shear to f*ckin space aids into that spindly fart of death! It will die slowly, over and over in its damned boss arena! (Good video btw.)
It may be a wild opinion but i think that the normal life Robin was the dreamscape Firefly, it may be stupid or idk i thought of this when i saw my wife (sorry Robin) was dead
probable this is gonna be revealed in the next update but I am confused if Firefly really is dead because she died in a dream just like the trailblazer at the beginning and she woke up right away from the dream, I am confused if I missed something
something unto death
bro they knew what they were doing with robins song during her hideout scene and then after her death 😭 they mean asf
