A hill i will die standing on is that picky eaters deserve respect and accommodation and to eat food they enjoy too. Sensory issues, disliked flavors, allergies, intolerances, cultural differences, religious restrictions, moral or political choices, they all deserve to be given consideration if you know you're gonna be cooking for them and to not be excluded from the fundamental right to food & access to the many important social bonding acitivities centered around food

I’ve ranted about this on like every platform but it just is making me really happy that I can actually tell that this story location in a game is based off of/inspired by something within my state/country like Aaaa

WARNING FOR ANYONE WITH AUDITORY EPILEPSY AS OF 8/23/25 - theres a new ad for i think it was "the conjuring" ? that starts with yellow text that reads "test your hearing, best to wear headphones" -

THE FREQUENCY THAT PLAYS SECONDS IN IS A SEIZURE INDUCING PITCH!

please mute the ad or click skip!! in our ad we couldn't click skip in time because it made us sit through the beginning of the pitch.

PLEASE STAY SAFE and avoid this ad's audio if you're seizures or migraines are triggered by high frequency noises!

[yours-truly-starlight-glimmer]

The Conjuring in question is the new "Last Rites" and I was able to find the ad posted on the Warner Bros. India channel on Youtube. To be more specific, the ad plays three audios and then a jumpscare. The audios are in 12,000 Hz, 15,000 Hz and 16,000, the jumpscare coming right after this one.

Im not too familiar with auditory epilepsy, so hopefully some of the information above helps someone.

[runby2]

thank you!!!

[runby2]

here's what the start of the commercial looks like! so you all know what to look out for!

{ID - A black screen with white headphones in the center. Yellow text reads, "Test your hearing in 15 seconds! Use headphones for best experience"

Further text on the screen advertises The Conjuring Last Rites

I present the terribly done coin(s) of whimsy keychain I just made. One side is Cipher the other is Zagreus

[arti-kingjullian]

Okay because I’m genuinely curious about how no one even considered the truth about the eternal dawn before the reveal (fandom wise)

Here’s a list of everything (in game) prior to 3.3 that pointed towards Trickery being the cause of the Eternal Dawn

please excuse any spelling mistakes: my keyboard doesn’t like to work certain keys sometimes

Also I do not use American English like the game so some words will be spelt differently because of auto correct and force of habit

The rest under the cut !

I do not claim to go through everything, nor do I want to. I am a human still and do not have the paitence to do all of that, again. Having said that:

List list will be taken from the following resources: Character Stories and Voicelines, Items, Readables, Divergent Universe: Protean Hero related items (equations, curios, blessings, boons, occurrences), Quests (to an extent), As I’ve Written (to an extent), Enemies.

It will be excluding: Hoyolab Articles, Offical Videos (including but not limited to: Character Trailers, Keeping Up with Star Rail, Myraid Celestia Trailers), In game content prior to 3.0 (within reason), NPC Dialogue, Minor Quest, Memory Fragments. For the sake of keeping this list short and easy to fact check for yourself (and to not go insane myself)

I am using Project Yatta for the sake of ensuring that non quest/divergent universe related resources are all from before 3.3 (for the most part). Everything else I am going to try my best but if I mess up, oh well this is just for fun.

All resources are avalible ingame or on the HSR WIKI and will be linked to the wiki page where available

Any direct cipher mentions will be in bold text, and any points that I think may need some explanation shall be defended at the bottom of the post if you would like my thoughts of thinking how these point towards the reason for the eternal dawn^^

If there’s any parts that are more important/what I’m mostly referring to they will be in blue.

Protentous Goldwoven: Strife Ruins / Protentous Goldwoven: Bloodbathed Battlefront (when combined): Mission Item As below, so above Day is night, night is day In the center of the selenic theater In the vortex of the heliacal forge The swift-footed warrior restrains their steps Both dawn and Evernight stayed for them

“Dawncloud” Hymn Tablet (I): Mission Item The sky father rests on the mountain peak, Where morning light encompasses all, where it is silent and cold. The elder gazes up the steps, Codes and ciphers intertwine, enigmatic like an abyss.

“Dawncloud” Hymn Tablet (II): Mission Item The Golden Age vanishes into smoke, Calamities torment the world. The sky father bears the weight of the sky for a thousand year. And has the light ever been extinguished?

“Coin of Whimsy” Zagreus (excerpt): Voice of Constellation This is precisely the reason that they are tolerated. Nothing is perfect, and no truth remains eternal. Change and carelessness can be fatal, but they can also be a saviour in a critical moment

Castorice Character Story: Part III (excerpt): Character Story She tried to grasp those scattering petals, but that agile thief caught her hand, giving her the last reward. "Do me a favor, just this once. So what if we cheat death?"

Atticus’s Kephale Oracles (excerpt): Readable "As the prophecy descends, my mission shall end, and from then on follows silence —" "The eternal night is looming, the Dawn Device will safeguard the holy city, poised for the children of humanity to create miracles... forever."

Record of Repentance (excerpt): Readable I can see my chances of survival slipping away. The terrifying black tide is growing ever closer. Though no one can see it, it is as clear as day in my pupils. I don't know why, but I feel a sense of calmness. Perhaps this is my final prophecy: After destruction, a new truth will be reborn.

Empyrean Gaze (excerpt): Consumable "The heavens have eyes that watch the world, but just being able to see a lot is useless when it comes to seeing through deception."

Destiny Weaver’s Missives: Readable (see defence please !) Do not trust the Coreflame you behold, Nor believe the prophecies that you've been told. For fate has been altered, And the truth has long been...

The God of Displacement and Chaos (excerpt): Titan Odes Divergent Universe: "In truth, the venerable Zagreus merely slumbers, and we all exist within their dream.” - Divergent Universe: "That elusive demigod is none other than Zagreus' incarnation. She proclaimed it in Dolos — since Zagreus never lies, it must be true."

Lying Cat’s Travelogue (excerpt): As I’ve Written "The dawn will never cease, and the Thief Star wanders in foreign lands." "How would you know that I am not lying right now?"

Defences:

[1] Cipher (the swift-footed warrior) restrains her steps in limiting the time she spends around people, specifically in Okhema because of the lie. Both dawn and Evernight stays because the dawn light remained past its inital deadline due to the lie, and the evernight stayed back from Okhema until Cipher’s death. The selenical theater being Dawncloud with Kephale’s coreflame at the enter, and the helical vortex being the Vortex of Genisus.

[2] Specifcally the “Codes and ciphers intertwine, enigmatic like the abyss” line. The code of amphorues and the sceptre mixing with Cipher’s lies and secrets, being hard to understand.

[3] Specifcally the “And has the light ever been extinguished?” line. It’s asking if the Dawn Device had ever turned off, because it was originally meant to but it didn’t because of the lie.

[4] “No truth remains eternal” in reference to the fact that the truth of the Dawn Device was that it was never going to be eternal, it was going to turn off. “Change and carelessness can be fatal, but they can also be a saviour is critical moments” because Trickery’s power saved Okhema in a critical moment by extending the life cycle of the Dawn Device

[5] “So what if we cheat death” Both in relation to Cipher’s lie about the Dawn Device, keeping everyone in Okhema from dying, but also from the sense of faking Zagreus’s death.

[6] “The eternal night is looming, the Dawn Device will safeguard the holy city, poised for the children of humanity to create miracles… forever” the direct words of Cipher pretending to be Atticus.

[7] Okay, admittedly this one is a little more loose but bare with me. The destruction that is talked about being the black tide finally encroaching on Okhema after Cipher’s death, and the new truth being what Cipher had done. The new truth that is reborn is that the Dawn Device was meant to die years ago but was kept alive thanks to Trickery

[8] Again, loosely. “Being able to see a alot is useless when it comes to seeing through deception” how no one could see through the deception of Trickery, not even the Titans or the world itself

[9] This one is more of an honarary mention than anything, as I think this specific readable is set from before the Calamity Titans even emerged, but it is an interesting thing to see.

[10] The world of Amphoreus lives within Zagreus’s dream because Cipher is an incarnation of Zagreus and her dream/want was to protect Amphoreus like the Chrysos Heirs she was surrounded with but felt inferior to. (second part is the incarnation of Zagreus evidence)

[11] “The dawn will never cease” rewording of her lie, even if its unclear if this story is set prior to her actually pulling the lie to reality or not.

FIN.

finally. this has been in my drafts of weeks but it’s finally done. If there are any I’ve missed, please feel free to mention it and I’ll look into it and update as needed ^^
