The Star God's Journey:
Starting from the Imaginary Tree: no.
Starting with two crazy guys surnamed A: yes.
In an age when the stars shine bright, Akivili, the Aeon of Trailblaze, travels through the universe aboard their train with the Nameless, exploring one new world after another. But this journey isn't always the same. It's perfectly normal to stumble upon some unexpected adventure and pick up an Aeon wandering beside the Star Rail, right?
"I have no name. I'm just a wanderer from the Imaginary Tree," the newly rescued Aeon, in the form of a young boy, explained calmly. "...Still, thank you for taking me in."
"Whatever your reasons, the Astral Express welcomes every passenger dedicated to the journey of Trailblaze, pom-pom!" The fluffy Conductor patted the new passenger on the shoulder.
"Come explore new worlds with us. You've been following the Star Rail for over a hundred Trailblaze years. Wouldn't traveling by train be faster?" Of course, more importantly, Akivili had become intensely curious about this strange new Aeon.
How could an Aeon call himself a "wanderer"? Wandering among the stars?
Akivili's eyes shifted. This was probably the kind of show Aha, the Aeon of Elation, loved best.
"I'll waive your fare. Stay as long as you like," the Aeon of Trailblaze joked. "But in return, if I ever fall, look after my Nameless."
The young Aeon nodded slightly in agreement, while a Mobius strip made of Imaginary Energy revolved around him.
Several Amber Eras later, after hearing about it from March 7th, the trash-can raccoon learned that, besides Dan Heng, Aunt Himeko, and Uncle Yang, whom they knew, there was another passenger on the train: a mysterious, aloof person who rarely got off to explore.
"Even though Jin-ge doesn't like talking to people, he's really good to us. If something happens that even Aunt Himeko can't handle, just call him and it'll be fine." The pink-haired girl patted her chest as she promised.
He was indeed mysterious. No one knew his identity or his past. Aunt Himeko said that one day, after the abandoned train had been repaired, this passenger had suddenly appeared inside it, as if he'd always been sitting by the window and she'd only recently become able to see him.
But aloof? After getting to know him, when the Trailblazer saw the young man head to the kitchen and cook noodles at three in the morning because they'd said they were hungry, she decided he was less aloof and more of a doting dad.

#Why does this kid's aura feel so much like that rotten Aeon's? Not sure, let's keep watching#
◎ No CP. He and the Trailblazer have a close "father-daughter" bond.
◎ The Astral Express Crew are one big family, except for those two crazy guys surnamed A. :)
◎ The prequel borrows from the plots of Honkai Impact 3rd and Genshin Impact, with a tree-and-sea worldview. The Star God's scattered form is a Wanderer from the Intrinsic World who ascended to become an Aeon.
◎ An Aeon of the Path of [Connection]. He gets along very well with [Trailblaze] and [Erudition], but is unwillingly dragged into the pranks of Akivili and Aha, and often has to clean up after them (in other words, wipe their butts).
◎ I'll add more if I think of anything.
