“the weeping lily? ..wouldn't that just be the lily of the valley? ah, well— it checks out, they are both poisonous to the likes of us.” — anonymous follower of the beauty.
rarity : ★★★★★ type : physical. — path : the remembrance. faction : the garden of recollection.
hallo, allow me to formally introduce you to hsr insert <3 my self insert is a follower of fuli, the aeon of remembrance. she was recruited to become a memokeeper by black swan, who she holds a strong admiration for and also the reason she wears a veil. as an memokeeper she collect memories via mirrors! her mirrors are multi-purposeful, they can not only capture / replay memories, but attack and act as an point of communication or travel method. she often encounter others through the reflection of an mirror, though her voice may be somnolent or even lethargic to some she is quite cheerful and teasing to those she considers friends! she soon gained the nickname: "weeping lily" due to the fact she was often spotted veiled in all white, resembling a bride who had ran away...
for her, speaking about her past is strictly forbidden. if anything the closest clue to it was her vendetta against idrila, the aeon of beauty— to the point many rumors circulated about her being a siren-like figure.. a walking venom to naive followers of idrila that lead to their impending doom. so could you imagine what went through others minds when she started to be seen with a certain rose colored knight of beauty?
ART BY THE WONDERFUL MCCREAROSE.ART ON INSTA !!!! please do check her out she's soooo lovely to work with and incredibly talented and sweet !
“Love without balance becomes obsession. Mercy without restraint becomes cruelty. If I must be reborn a thousand times to keep the scales from breaking—so be it.”
A prayer passes from her lips
Into her soul, the Goddess whispers:
A heartbeat without harmony
Is moonlight without dark
The heart seeketh equilibrium
With balance will your worry part
So still this broken melody
And therewith shoulder thee
One last step only leaving
An empty hearth down by the sea
Further apart, the closer that we are
I'll keep you far away, from me like a star
Hard not to fall for you, I gave you all my heart
Further apart, the closer, the closer, the closer that we are
The axis that keeps his existence from collapsing entirely.
Winter is not merely reborn to love Blade again, no no, the stars weaved their way into her pact with interest. She crafted the entwinning of their souls by handing over complete control of their fate; almost like a play field for the Aeons.
Her attempts to maintain equilibrium between Blade's curse and annihilation result in the direct consequence of anchoring an immortal who should not exist: Repeated brutal deaths through Blade's hand followed by her reincarnations to try anew.
Where Blade embodies excess violence and undying suffering, Winter embodies continuity and fragile hope.
Core elements of their bond:
Blade forgets → Winter remembers
Blade destroys → Winter stabilises
Blade tips the scale → Winter corrects it

life <-->death
memory <--> forgetting
love <--> destruction
light <--> void

Arabella, a childhood friend to both Phainon (AKA Khaslana) and Cyrene, is a playable character in Honkai: Star Rail. She was formally introduced in the story during the 3.2 Trailblaze quest. Following the Black Tide, which she has been chasing ever since it consumed her village when she was younger, she was led to the Grove where Scholars were scattering and the Flame Reaver's wrath reared its ugly head. Despite the strange familiarity of the cloaked figure, Arabella tries her best to stand her ground but almost loses her life, but before the Flame Reaver can claim another victim, Anaxagoras steps in and saves her life.
After the Flame Reaver is successfully ran out by the Trailblazer (Stelle or Caelus), Arabella is taken back to Okhema where she's healed by Hyacine and her corruption from the Black Tide has been discovered. Aglaea summons Arabella to the Vortex of Genesis for questioning and a sort of trial. Her intentions are questioned but her trial is cut short when Phainon barges in and the two reunite.

Zōu to most people, yíng to dan heng only. A temporary (?) Passanger on the express. Formerly a bounty hunter for the luofu, now tagging along the express allegedly out of boredom. But we all know that's not true. The real reason? He won't say, but the ring on his left hand that never gets taken off might just be a clue.
