Enter the Dreampool

Although the negotiation process was a little uncertain at times, at least everyone is happy with the results. With Black Swan's company, you should be able to avoid any danger in the "real Memory Zone."
Enter the code that Silver Wolf gave you into the Dreampool and prepare to witness the true nature of the Dreamscape.

{NICKNAME}
(We'll be busy for a while. I wonder if Firefly's returned to reality yet...)

(...Hmm, I don't have her contact info, I'll ask Black Swan...)

{NICKNAME}
{NICKNAME}
(Back in this familiar room...)
Black Swan
Black Swan
This way, darling.

Speak with Black Swan

With Silver Wolf's assistance, you successfully arrived at the true Dreamscape — This place seems almost identical to what you have already experienced in your dreams... Perhaps you've even grown tired of this. Not to worry. Black Swan will serve as your guide here and take you on a relaxing and enjoyable Memory Zone adventure —
—If only that is the case. Either way, you must meet with her.
Black Swan
Black Swan
What's wrong? Are you not feeling well?
Options
I feel fine.
I don't feel so good...
Black Swan
Black Swan
That's good then.
Black Swan
Black Swan
I know you're more sensitive to memoria, thus more easily affected by the Dreamscape than others. This is also why I have to accompany you.
Black Swan
Black Swan
I shall use my methods to relieve you. Don't worry, as your companions are safe — I had both of them each give me a trinket before I entered the dream. This will allow me to feel their presence in the Memory Zone.
Black Swan
Black Swan
They're already awake in their rooms. Will you be comfortable in following me now? Time waits for no one. We must hurry to the lobby.

Try to wake up March 7th

Black Swan leads you forward in the Memory Zone. For safety's sake, maybe you should consider waking up March 7th to travel with you.
{NICKNAME}
{NICKNAME}
(March's room is this way... I should go meet up with her.)


Find the path to the Lobby

Having learned of how your companions have become scattered, Black Swan continues to lead you forward in the Memory Zone. Along the way, you unexpectedly encounter the Galaxy Ranger, who is here searching for secrets (though she gave sufficient reasons for her to be here, you have reasons to suspect that she just got lost again.)
Now, with the assistance of this Ranger, it should be no trouble for you all to make it to the hotel lobby — However, Black Swan seems a little apprehensive of her... Why could this be?
Acheron
Acheron
This door... can't be opened?
Black Swan
Black Swan
It's locked. I can travel through it freely, but you all...
Acheron
Acheron
We'll just have to take the way I came. Follow me.
Black Swan
Black Swan
Miss Acheron, I have a suggestion: Why not split up and look for a way out, and meet up again when we find something? That would speed things up.
Acheron
Acheron
But it's dangerous around here. We'd better travel together.

Black Swan
Black Swan
How about it? Can you feel the memoria flowing around you?
Black Swan
Black Swan
Next, find a suitable spot... and try *walking up* the wall.

Leave this place and continue towards the Lobby

It seems that Black Swan's premonition was entirely correct. You've arrived in a severely distorted space —fortunately, there is a door here. If everything goes as expected, this door should be the exit from this space (though your adventure has been constantly plagued by the unexpected).
Perhaps you should open the door and leave this place immediately instead of continuing to run in circles in this tiny room.


Investigate the Dream Jigsaw that had mysteriously appeared

The Dreamweaver gentleman can be seen all over Penacony, yet he has appeared before you precisely at this moment again to give you a completely unnecessary puzzle.
Complete this puzzle and leave this distorted Memory Zone.
Black Swan
Black Swan
There's no time. I'll just have to break the rules and use some methods to help you phase through the Memory Zone.
Black Swan
Black Swan
I picked up slivers of her thoughts in the Memory Zone. These will help you form an impression of her. Now, you must hang on to these thoughts with all your might, and shape them in your mind.
Black Swan
Black Swan
I caught some very familiar memories just now — she's not the only *old friend* who has appeared here. There was also a third party at the scene when you ran into danger...
Black Swan
Black Swan
...That Memory Zone meme, it is here as well.

Speak with the Express Crew and discuss Black Swan's suggestion

The reunion with the Crew is indeed not as harmonious as you expected. She comes to you with a condition: She will save your life in return for the Crew's collaboration.
Everyone says that the Memokeepers of the Garden of Recollection are the most fearsome... You should discuss your decision carefully before giving her an answer.
Welt
Welt
...How do you see things, Himeko?
Himeko
Himeko
It's best to be skeptical of her. There's a significant amount of intentional misdirection in her words.
Himeko
Himeko
But I worry about the worst outcome: If the Dreamscape's anomaly really exists, and it isn't a natural occurrence, but instigated by someone behind the scenes...
Welt
Welt
...Then it likely has something to do with the Watchmaker's invite.
March 7th
March 7th
Huh, how'd you figure that one out?
Welt
Welt
Well, excluding any extreme scenarios, the mastermind responsible for these shifts in the dreamscape undeniably stands against The Family, which narrows it down to two possibilities...
Welt
Welt
Someone is drawing in external influences to distract and disrupt The Family's control over Penacony. Either that, or The Family has been forced to seek outside aid surreptitiously for self-preservation.
Welt
Welt
But from the encrypted message on the invite, and The Family's reaction... The former is more likely.
Himeko
Himeko
Which also means that, the one who sent out the encrypted Nameless message and the mastermind behind the anomaly are on the same side... Maybe even the same person.
March 7th
March 7th
Well... this doesn't necessarily mean a thing, right? In terms of methods, both the Fools and the Riddlers could pull it off. Hasn't the IPC cracked the message, too?
Himeko
Himeko
March, calm down. It's just a possibility. But if this encrypted message isn't some harmless prank, but done so to invite the Trailblaze into the fray, we cannot remain uninvolved.
Welt
Welt
Well, let me tell you what I discovered, and I'm sorry — it's bad news.
Welt
Welt
According to reliable sources, some people spotted a tall silver-armored man on Penacony. I've reached out to the Bloodhound Family for news, and visited many of those guests who claimed to have seen this invader...
Welt
Welt
...And this is what I received. {NICKNAME}, I've sent it to you. Open it and take a look.
Unknown
March 7th
March 7th
Those Stellaron Hunters... They even factored Penacony into their plan! Nowhere's safe from them!
Welt
Welt
The situation is clear — the Planet of Festivities isn't what it seems on the surface. Everyone's sights, including the factions in The Family, are set on the Watchmaker's Legacy. Every party has its own motives, and they're attempting to thwart each other.
Welt
Welt
While we still don't know what this legacy entails, it's only a matter of time before the power struggle ensnares innocent bystanders.
Welt
Welt
The Molten Knight, Sam, is reportedly a remnant of Glamoth's Iron Cavalry — a genetically engineered warrior. He possesses superhuman perception and acts decisively — he'll leave no margin for error. This individual is every bit as dangerous as Kafka and Blade.
Welt
Welt
This message is a threat. The hidden map that Silver Wolf mentioned is probably the sealed dreamscape Hotel. For the sake of what's to come, a visit seems necessary.
Options
Should we inform The Family?
What if we get found out...
It could be a Stellaron Hunter's trap...
Welt
Welt
We may be on amicable terms, but that doesn't mean they trust us... Let's act first and talk later.
Welt
Welt
Which is why I didn't suggest it initially. But the way things are now, the Astral Express has a reason to join the fray.
Welt
Welt
If The Family asks, just tell them that the Express is investigating the Stellaron Hunters — I'm sure they'll understand. We'll plan our next move according to how they react.
Himeko
Himeko
Then we are in agreement. Let's return and inform Miss Black Swan.


Leave this place and continue towards the Lobby

You successfully found the exit — It is time to continue on toward the hotel lobby.
Let's hope that Himeko and March 7th have already arrived there safely.
Black Swan
Black Swan
Hurry, through here.

Go to the Lobby

The lobby is just ahead... Just what will you discover there?
Acheron
Acheron
...Watch out! A dangerous presence lurks nearby.
Black Swan
Black Swan
...Everyone, be on your guard.

The Reverie (Dreamscape)


Speak with Black Swan and give her an answer

After considering every factor, you have decided to cooperate with this Memokeeper.
Now, it is time to give her the conclusion that you have reached.
Himeko
Himeko
Miss Black Swan, the Express is willing to cooperate with you — we need a proper guide to navigate the Memory Zone.
Black Swan
Black Swan
I'm at your service. I will not disappoint.
Himeko
Himeko
{NICKNAME} and March, return to your own rooms. Enter the dream, and if everything goes without a hitch... we'll see one another at the dreamscape Hotel's lobby.
Welt
Welt
I'll stay in the real world to ensure everyone's safety. If needed, I will also parlay with The Family. I assume there's no problem, Miss Black Swan?
Black Swan
Black Swan
It seems that I'll have a hard time gaining your trust even if I personally did rescue your friends... It's no problem, of course, other than the fact that my feelings are a little hurt.
Himeko
Himeko
We're counting on you, Welt. As for us... Let's get ready to see the Dreamscape's true visage.

Talk to Acheron

Firefly has been taken by "death." She was a gentle and brave girl... Perhaps you should join the Ranger in mourning her.
