Honkai: Star Rail: When an Aeon Joins the Astral Express Crew

(A fan work that differs considerably from the original setting. Please think carefully before reading if that bothers you.)

As the 1,990th barrier of the Amber Wall nears completion,

The Antimatter Legion's Emanator of Destruction, Cinder, tears through the starry sky, their fist carrying a black-hole pulse toward “Abraham-IV.”

The energy planet, drained of its flesh and blood in the name of Preservation, bears a Void Reactor towering over its dead planetary core. In Nanook's eyes, it has become the most glaring badge of blasphemy.

Oswaldo, the Interastral Peace Corporation's iron-fisted enforcer, issues a death order in the name of Preservation, turning the crystal wall into a furnace that consumes the planet's natives.

Leah, a girl ravaged by radiation sickness, collapses beneath the crystal wall. Her hoarse question cuts through the battlefield:

“Qlipoth! When did the great wall You forged become a cradle of slaughter?!”

The eyes of Xu Ze, a transmigrator, reflect a truth even more brutal:

In his left eye, the future of Cinder shattering the Stellaron. In his right, the Amber Lord's phantom draining the planet dry.

He turns and plunges toward the Dreamweaver at the edge of the abyss, a Void loom forged from humanity's unfulfilled dreams and the ancient Aeons' lingering regrets.

When Xu Ze kindles the hope of survival,

When Leah's blood, carrying an anti-entropy enzyme, drips onto the shuttle,

The Dreamweaver erupts in light, twining destruction's ashes and Preservation's amber into a spiral of stars.

Thus a god is born from the corpse of a lie:

A new god, cloaked in tattered stardust, opens its eyes inside a cocoon of paradox. Its left eye holds the exhausted core of Abraham-IV, while an unexploded singularity from Cinder's black hole drifts in its right.

Its name is “Weiyang,” and its will is:

“All endings of the myriad worlds are illusions. Let eternity hold still, awaiting what comes next.”

Xing: “Hey, man? Mind if I take your spot?”

Xu Ze: “…Six.”
