Solaris-3 and the Solar System
Throughout the game, I’ve noticed some mentions of the solar system of Wuwa, and I wanted to gather it all together along with some theories I have about it. In this first part, I will gather all the references to space I can find, and later make some theories in Part Two, so let’s get to it shall we? But first a disclaimer, I do not own any of the wuwa graphics shown throughout this post, kuro games does. Additionally, this is all speculative work, and I tend to overanalyze things, so take all this knowledge with a grain of salt!
First, let’s go through all of the mentions, or things I think have to do with space throughout the game.
The Goddesses Halo: Although probably purely aesthetic, the goddess’s halo looks to me like a solar system. This halo comprises two sets of co-orbital configured astronomical objects (objects that share the same gravitational path or orbit), and that’s about it. There is suspiciously a lack of central star, unless you count the Goddess as it, along with it seeming to be incomplete. We know that Sol-3 is the third planet away from the Sun, and this model halo only goes two out, so if it is accurate, it isn’t complete. This is also assuming that the Goddess is from the same Solar System or Universe as Sol-3 is.
(Also I took the time to look at the constellations found in the goddesses' hair. And as far as I can tell there is no EXACT match to any constellations from our world. These are probably also an aesthetic detail, drawn from an artist’s mind, but I wanted to mention them anyway.)
The Diary: On this Diary, acquired during the Omnious Star main quest, there seems to be a ringed planet, possibly surrounded by six moons or astronomical objects.
Lunite: This currency seems to be a planet surrounded by a ring, a moon, and two to four stars. In its description, we learn that Sol-3’s moon was shattered a long time ago and is merely a mirage, like how the stars we see in the sky are long dead.
Lunite Purchasing Menu and Animation: In the images we see above, we can see an artistic rendition or model of … something I suppose. There’s a central gold planet or perhaps a core of a planet, surrounded by the phases of the moon, and another moon? The white crescent could also be a moon, or a planet itself. Surrounding this white part there’s another co-orbital configuration path with a white (or gold in one image) and blue planet and four shining stars. There are also some constellations made up of stars, moons, and suns, which are similar to constellations in our world but not exact.
The Lunite Subscription Passes also have a similar image on them, along with the words Month Card, 15, or 7. The central astronomical object changes between them. They also mention a Celestial Observatory in their description.
Astrite: A star-shaped object with a rather ethereal description
Tacet Cores: Multiple of the cores for the tacet discords are star-shaped.
Star Flakes: Star-shaped food rather reminiscent of the shape of tacet fields, cores, and marks. Don’t forget to make a wish after eating some.
The Icefield Honor Medal: Purely Speculative, but to me there looks to be once again, four stars on it.
There are also some more tacet discord/echo items that are star-shaped, that I didn’t want to gather together. But yeah that’s it for part 1. If there’s anything I missed let me know and I’ll make sure to add it! Anyways, this is me signing out! Toodles!
