A New Venture on the Eighth Dawn - Sound of Farewell Hums Reunion
Express your wishes to Welt
Meanwhile at Dream's Edge
- Welt: Is this place also affected by the Order ?
- Sunday: No, I'm just here to bid farewell. I changed my mind along the way. This journey has too many variables...
- Sunday: So it shouldn't matter if we add another.
- Welt: How did you know she would be here?
- Sunday: I didn't. I had a hunch and decided to try my luck. It seems I can be lucky sometimes.
- Welt: It's not like you to leave things to luck.
- Sunday: I'm trying to change, too.
- Welt: I don't think you need a bystander in this scenario. Go on ahead.
- Sunday: You're not worried I'll take the opportunity to escape?
- Welt: I believe you're the kind of person that has the ability and desire to use everything to your advantage... but that "everything" does not include Miss Robin.
- Sunday: ...Thank you.
- Welt: Now then, Mr. Wonweek...
- Wonweek: I'm not leaving. No way.
- Sunday: Let him stay. He won't be in the way.
- Sunday: I actually need Wonweek to be there. She shouldn't be seen talking to a fugitive no matter the circumstances.
- Welt: You... don't intend to reveal your true identity to her?
- Sunday: Both parties don't have to be aware that this is a farewell.
- Sunday: ...I shouldn't put her at risk for my selfishness.
- Welt: ...As you wish.
- Wonweek: Shall we go then?
- Sunday: (deep breath)...
- Sunday: Let's go. Our journey can't begin if I can't take this first step.
Meet with Robin
(Talk to Welt, optional)
- Welt: I don't think you need a bystander in this scenario. Go on ahead.
(ApproachRobin)
- Sunday: I didn't expect to see you here, Miss Robin.
- Robin: It's nice to meet you, Miss. May I know your name?
- Sunday: My name is... Wonweek. I'm a member of the Nightingale Family .
- Robin: Oh, you're a Dreamweaver. Thank you for all your hard work. You all are the reason the Dreamscape has been able to recover from this crisis.
- Sunday: You're too kind, Miss Robin. You must be very busy. What brings you here to Dream's Edge?
- Robin: I'm taking a break. I wanted to find a quiet place to relax, ideally somewhere where I could see the stars. Before I knew it, I'd walked all the way here.
- Robin: I know these stars only exist in the dream but...
- Sunday: Well, perhaps the dreamscape is not so different from reality.
- Sunday: "When we look up into the night sky, the stars aren't really there. The glimmering lights we see are merely the images of stars from long ago."
- Sunday: So, have we ever truly seen a real sky full of stars?
- Robin: You're very philosophical, Miss Wonweek. You remind me of someone I know.
- Robin: Do you work nearby?
- Sunday: No, no. Today is my rest day. There's going to be a show later, so I came early to find a good seat.
- Robin: A show? Here?
- Sunday: It's somewhere farther away. They say it's a farewell performance, the kind that's better to listen to from afar than watch it performed live.
- Robin: I see. In that case, the observation deck is a good choice. You can see all of Penacony from here.
- Robin: Distance can make some things appear more beautiful.
- Sunday: ...
- Sunday: Miss Robin, may I stay here with you to gaze at the stars, before the show begins?
- Robin: Of course! You don't have to be so courteous. I should be the one asking. This is Dream's Edge, after all, and the Dreamweavers are its true masters.
- Wonweek: ...
- Sunday: Still, these stars are unfamiliar to me. I don't recognize any of them, and it makes me feel uneasy.
- Robin: What makes you feel this way? Is it because the sky is so far away, or because it's the unknown?
- Sunday: Perhaps it's both.
- Sunday: The Stellaron Disaster may not have had any real consequences, but many guests still chose to check out. Now, the hotel feels quieter than before. It makes me wonder what Penacony's future will be like. I just hope it will not negatively affect you, Miss Robin.
- Robin: You're too kind. I'll be fine. The disaster was unexpected, but because of it, I was able to witness many pasts and think about many futures.
- Robin: My only real regret is that I left some things unsaid.
- Sunday: Did the person you wanted to say them to leave?
- Robin: Yes. He left in such a hurry that I didn't even get the chance to say goodbye.
- Sunday: Sometimes what's in your heart doesn't need to be dressed up in words. Maybe he already knows what you wanted to say.
- Robin: But don't you think we should put in some effort when we want to encourage someone?
- Sunday: If you don't mind me asking, who is it that you wish to encourage?
- Robin: It's someone who experienced failure recently and is about to embark on a long journey.
- Sunday: There are many such people on Penacony. Failure is like the setting sun to a Dreamchaser. It's something that happens every day.
- Sunday: I believe they all have the willpower to start anew, especially after receiving a smile from you, Miss Robin.
- Robin: But he's different. He's stronger than most ordinary people, but because of it, people have this misconception: They think that when he falls, he will stand back up faster than anyone else.
- Sunday: Are you saying that's not true?
- Robin: It's not. Because before he stands up again, he will hesitate and agonize for ages over whether that is the right course of action.
- Sunday: ...
- Sunday: Failure may be a good thing for someone like that. Being able to reflect on one's actions is a valuable quality to have.
- Robin: You may be right, but I still hope that he'll never change.
- Sunday: Why's that?
- Robin: Because I have faith in the person I remember him to be.
- Robin: He may have taken the wrong approach when he failed, but I don't think he had the wrong intentions. We once stood together at the same starting line, but now it's his turn to fly for the stars. I believe he'll find the right path, even if he has to do it alone.
- Robin: We don't have to soar into the sky together.
- Robin: Because I know we'll reunite one day, up there in the clouds.
- Sunday: ...
- Sunday: I hope so.
- Robin: Miss Wonweek, may I ask a favor? There's a jigsaw here I'd like to finish before I leave.
- Robin: If I have a Dreamweaver's help, maybe I'll be able to fill in the missing pieces.
- Sunday: A Dream Jigsaw? I see. I'll do my best.
- Robin: Don't worry if you can't find them. Just think of it as us taking a walk together.
Help Robin find the jigsaw piece
- Sunday: I'm still inexperienced, so let's just hope we get lucky.
- Robin: Thank you anyway. I expect the first jigsaw piece will be a part of the starry sky.
- Robin: As for the other piece, I hope it will symbolize wings.
(Talk to Wonweek, optional)
- Wonweek: Oh, Miss Robin! I'm a big fan!
- Wonweek: I don't get to attend every single one of your concerts, but I watch the recordings of each of them at least once. I love all of your songs! Gosh, I wish I could tell the whole world about this!
- Robin: Thank you for your support. I'll keep doing my best.
- Sunday: ...
(Investigate the marked location)
- Sunday: It seems we've been blessed with good fortune today.
- Robin: Is this...
A scrawled note was left here.
"May your sky be forever radiant."
- Robin: It seems familiar...
- Sunday: Another Dreamweaver probably left this behind. It's a habit for this profession. They hope to use these blessings as a foundation for the Dreamscape.
(Investigate the marked location)
- Sunday: The second jigsaw piece. Is this a pair of wings, or a decoration made of feathers?
- Robin: Maybe it's somewhere in between the two. It's a pair of broken wings.
- Sunday: ...We should keep looking.
- Robin: It's okay. Let's use this one.
Just as before, a note was placed carefully next to the puzzle, like someone got here a step earlier...
"May your stage be forever lustrous."
"One more thing, staying fit is important, but don't forget to eat well, too."
Complete the Dream Jigsaw with Robin
- Robin: We have enough. Let's go back.
(After completing the puzzle)
- Sunday: ...
- Sunday: It's done. Have a look.
- Robin: ...
That painting feels like a blessing, and also seems to mirror someone's resolve: Even when the broken wings no longer belong to the sky, the direction in which they fall will still be towards the stars—

▶ "Soon, I shall travel to those unfamiliar stars, none of which I recognize."
▶ "But as long as you continue to gaze upon them from here—"
▶ "Then those unfamiliar stars will one day be the place of our reunion."
- Robin: ...
- Robin: You still couldn't bear to say goodbye in the end? Maybe I'm stronger than you think...
- Robin: You must try to relax on your long journey...
- Robin: ...Brother.
- Welt: That didn't seem like a perfect goodbye.
- Sunday: It's enough. I only meant to stay quietly by her side for a bit.
- Sunday: But why did you do those unnecessary things?
- Wonweek: What things?
- Sunday: Those two notes. If someone finds them, they can be used as evidence against her.
- Wonweek: Hmph, so you can do whatever you want as many times as you want, but I can't?
- Wonweek: I don't want to live with regret for the rest of my life either.
- Welt: Live with regret...
- Wonweek: We're almost done saying our goodbyes, right?
- Sunday: Yes, we only have one last stop.
- Sunday: But before we leave, I have a question I'd like to ask you, Mr. Yang.
- Sunday: I'm curious. Why did you become a Nameless ?
- Welt: Why the sudden interest?
- Sunday: I always had a feeling that you would never give up on someone who needed help. After spending time with you, I'm even more convinced of this assessment.
- Sunday: At this very moment, there are countless worlds above the skies still waiting for the arrival of the Astral Express , yet you and your companions have chosen to stay here. All for an "old friend" you never knew and a notorious fugitive.
- Sunday: To Trailblaze means to forge ahead, yet you stop and spend precious time on people just passing by. All the while you believe this is... the natural course of action?
- Welt: That's not what I think at all. Besides, the Watchmaker also made a similar choice.
- Sunday: And because of that, he bid farewell to the Express and never walked among the stars again in his lifetime.
- Welt: "Not all journeys lead to the stars." Even if we leave the Express, some Trailblazing paths will still continue.
- Welt: You can think of it this way: The title of Nameless doesn't belong to any one person. Each individual will have their own view of what it means to walk this path, and will always try their best, no matter the situation.
- Welt: The goal of my Trailblazing is not the unknown world, but every living being who exists under the stars.
- Welt: In my homeland, the name "Welt" means "world." It suggests that each person is a world unto themselves, and that we harbor as many possibilities as the distant stars. The connections I gain on my journey are what is most precious to me.
- Welt: This is my way of the Trailblaze and the reason why I decided to stay here.
- Sunday: Why me?
- Welt: Like I said before, I left my home in a hurry, too. I know how you feel right now.
- Welt: I also know that a person will only be able to truly face themselves once they've decided to say goodbye to their past... the same way you're doing right here, right now...
- Welt: There was never a third person with us, was there?
- Wonweek: I told you he'd find out.
- Sunday: I should have known nothing could escape your keen eyes.
- Sunday: Since you already know Wonweek's secret, there's no need for me to build up suspense.
- Sunday: Let's go. We'll head straight for the finale and take our final bow in this farewell performance.
