[Honkai: Star Rail] Why Are the Mournful Actors Like This?

"Dirge, also known as Thalestris, one of the Mournful Actors."

"A new protagonist!"

"Took part in the Luofu's Ambrosial Arbor crisis, stirred up the war between the warlords of Immanica, triggered the Abundance disaster in the Glasslight Belt, and joined forces with the Stellaron Hunters to steal a Stellaron..."

"Whoa! Doesn't sound like a good person."

"Now on the wanted lists of the Xianzhou Alliance, the Interastral Peace Corporation, the Garden of Recollection, and other factions, in a deluxe all-in-one wanted package. Bounty: 10,000,000,000!"

"That's Credits on legs."

"It's said that this extremely dangerous fugitive has an accomplice..."

"There's an accomplice too?"

"Lyle, Merlin, Zhang San..."

"Wait, how many people is that?"

"Their real name is unknown. They're experts at scamming the cosmos and are suspected to be a Masked Fool!"

"Oh, a Masked Fool! They're professionals at this sort of thing."

"They travel by gondola, committing crimes across a thousand stars! This station would like to remind all citizens: if you encounter these two, be sure to protect yourself! They're extremely cunning and cruel..."

"Aw, now that's an unfair accusation against us."

"Huh? Wha... Aaaah! Security, security! A Masked Fool got in!"

Bang!

"Hello, everyone. I'm Dirge."
