Summary
Apocalypse: Star Rail might be the worst game Dr. Veritas Ratio has ever played. In what world is murdering half the known universe for no reason even remotely reasonable? What kind of game kills off its most compelling characters just for shock value?
Also, why is he now in the game — and as a damn NPC, out of all things?
【 Activation Code: “Moronic developers, moronic game.” It is our sincere wish that during your time, you can fulfill your desires and, in accordance with your wish, transform a piece of moronic work into a magnificent, high-quality, first-rate classic. Bound Role: Unnamed male NPC of the Veritas Prime star system, age 0. 】
【 Congratulations! Welcome to Apocalypse: Star Rail, version ██! 】
Well. If these idiot developers can’t take constructive criticism, Veritas might as well construct the criticism himself… by forcibly inserting himself into a plot where he’s never existed.

Summary
If no Master will take her on as an apprentice, Hyacine might as well put her magical skills to work as the owner of the Twilight Courtyard café. There’s nothing that quite beats the feeling of creating the perfect recipe to give a customer the push they need to find a solution to their struggles, after all.
And this wild-eyed professor who barged in asking for sixteen espresso shots at double the effectiveness? Well, he’s just another customer who needs a special brew.

Summary
The gist of it all is that Phainon — the gods’ beloved, the peasant prince, the Deliverer — is not cursed, and he is not a sinner.
Mydeimos is.
(Or: there is a prince, there is a prophecy, and there may or may not be a happy ending.)

Summary
Despite what Aglaea may have seen through her threads, Mydei’s knees do not almost give out in relief when he sees the blue-clad figure on his couch.
“Deliverer.” He doesn’t bother to hold back the relief in his voice.
The Phainon-shaped lump shifts minutely, then turns towards him, eyes slowly blinking open. “My… dei?”

Summary
Most days, Phainon is vaguely, tangentially aware he’s a pretty popular guy. It’s kinda hard not to be when you’re saving the world on the regular. Hell, even his superhero friends think he’s a decent guy to be around! Just ask Castorice, who he has frequent movie nights with, or Aglaea, who’s literally his mom-sister-aunt-something, or Anaxa, who… actually, he would probably throttle Phainon if he heard him call him a superhero, so never mind.
All this to say — he’s generally a likeable guy, right? Then why doesn’t Kingslayer — The Dusk, The Vengeance, The Great Champion of Kremnos — like him?
