If time were a flower, let trickling memories weave time into gold.\\
Why does the ocean sing? The waves sing of an epoch etched in golden blood—
;#;


;#;
Noble lies dance on the breeze, while lives that chase fire shall be cast to the flames!\\
Heroes blaze their path with the flame of blood, as thirty million dawns thus burn.
;#;


;#;
Long may the rainbow of hope adorn the sky; make the poem of farewells more beautiful.\\
The steps of Trailblaze pace through Evernight's stars. Though worlds apart, this love is forever.\\

{{ :external:amphoreus:saga-composed-tomorrow-yesterday-2.jpg?200|}}
**Caelus:** After Era Nova, I slumbered for a millennium in Amphoreus, while my companions became Titans of the new world. Before heading into the final battle, Cyrene showed me the past and present of the Demiurge and "PhiLia093."

**Dan Heng:** The friends reunited in the Ruins of Time, reforging Khaslana's wish and shattering the seal he had laid with his own body. They officially began the battle against Irontomb, which broke free from imprisonment.

**March 7th:** In an instant, Irontomb's hatred struck at the cosmic civilizations' life data. At the crucial moment, Herta was able to complete her coronation, while Cyrene protected the memories of all cosmic life.

**Stelle:** Empowered by both the Erudition and the Remembrance, Cyrene and I completed a cosmic-scale Era Nova, leading everyone to victory in another battle against Irontomb.

**Caelus:** I woke up on the Astral Express and bid farewell to the Chyrsos Heirs. Everything has been recorded in //As I've Written//. To eliminate any chance of Irontomb's return, Cyrene walked alone into the past, anchoring cause and effect with Remembrance. The seed of Amphoreus quietly waits to sprout.

==== Experiment Complete: Amphoreus ====

...\\
Based on the Trailblazer's memory, the final cycle no longer gave birth to factors affected by the Destruction, and the children of humanity passed a thousand years in peace. At the end of the Era Chrysea, the Trailblazer issued the prophecy of "Trailblaze." The entire population of Amphoreus dedicated themselves to the battle against Irontomb, and this collective action became an important variable.

The Titans of this cycle released Khaslana, bringing forth Irontomb. In An Eternal Page, the Trailblazer embarked on the Path of Remembrance, completing a cosmic-scale Era Nova to bring the memories of all cosmic life back to reality. Together with the Titans, they crushed Irontomb.

The experiment collapses into "Concluded" only on the condition that the Demiurge successfully gazes back. If it fails, affected by the established causality deficit, the experiment will re-collapse into "Unconcluded."

At last, the fall of Irontomb was anchored. As the Theoros, Lycurgus reached the end of his road.

The Amphoreus Experiment has been completed, its operation terminated. At the same time, a kindling civilization, nurtured by the Remembrance, has been lit in the cosmos. In due course, Amphoreus will establish itself as a beacon within the cosmic community.

Himeko, Welt, Sunday, and Black Swan entered Amphoreus and located Irontomb from within.\\
With the Astral Express taking the lead, the Xianzhou, IPC, Rangers, The Family, and Robin deployed troops, vaccines, and rescue efforts. The combined forces maintained high-frequency strikes from the perimeter, containing the overflowing black tide, using artillery to suppress Irontomb's activity.

> **Himeko:** Explore, understand, established, connect... At this stop, the entire cosmos will be your traveling companion.

Herta and Screwllum infiltrated the Matrix to investigate the Demiurge, and learned the truth from Zandar. Herta called a Society meeting to announce the plan and broke through the barrier of the Scepter's core.

As Irontomb was about to destroy the universe, Herta and the Scepter overclocked to complete the "Self-Coronation" in Irontomb's place, successfully interfacing with the Nous and rewriting the "Fourth Instant" for the Trailblazer, turning them into a "variable" of the cosmos.

After the battle, Herta uncovered the truth about Fuli's unborn state and the question of Amphoreus's causality, pointing out two paths for Cyrene.

> **The Herta:** The "Instants" Droidhead calculated aren't about the Destructiono. What THEY want to prove is how the cosmos would "come back after being destroyed."

> **Screwllum:** But THEY kept silent, leaving the solution in the hands of the cosmos.

{{ :external:amphoreus:saga-composed-tomorrow-yesterday-5.jpg?200|}}
The Demiurge, the "Heart of Amphoreus," was the original extrapolation target of the Scepter. Though destroyed by Zandar with a Stellaron, she was born and grew under the nourishment of the memories of three million Cyrenes, learning "Love" from the stories of the Chrysos Heirs' Flame-Chase Journeys. She mistook Cyrene for the electrical signal of "Love," when the latter was actually the factor of "Lament." Encouraged by Cyrene, the Demiurge broke free from her prison and transformed into Mem to encounter the Trailblazer.

After Era Nova, the Demiurge, as the Thirteenth TItan, joined the ranks to confront Irontomb. The Scepter united its body and soul. In the instant Irontomb destroyed the world, she created An Eternal Page under the glimpse of the Remembrance. This secured and opportunity for the Trailblazer to turn the tide of battle, using themself to overwrite Irontomb's Destruction equation, which in turn allowed everyone to return to the battlefield, defeating Irontomb.

The Demiurge gathered Amphoreus's memories into //As I've Written//, leaving the final stroke in the Extotale.

The Demiurge learned from Herta that Fuli's absence had created a gap in the chain of causality that should have been anchored by the Remembrance. As a Pure Child of Anāsrava, the Demiurge could either journey toward the stars and become Fuli{{ :external:amphoreus:saga-composed-tomorrow-yesterday-6.jpg?200|}} at the end of time to complete the gaze back, or immediately walk into the past to cast a glance in Fuli's stead, to stabilize the anchor of Irontomb's fall.

Supported by the heroes' Flame-Chase Journeys, the Demiurge chose to trust the self that was still "human," moving against the flow of time to fill in and connect the moments of "divine intervention," closing the loop of cause and effect in the story.

Persisting until the origin of time, the exhausted Demiurge's consciousness dissipated. Half of her soul awakened in the form of the child Cyrene, incarnated as "PhiLia093" in Aedes Elysiae. The other half was sealed in a prison, reverting to the "Heart of Amphoreus." Demiurge, Cyrene, Mem, and "Philia093" have always been the same flower, forever remaining within Amphoreus's cycle.

{{ :external:amphoreus:saga-composed-tomorrow-yesterday-7.jpg?200|}}
> **Cyrene:** How fortunate we are. In this cycle of cause and effect, humanity never looks to the gods for guidance. The ones who pick up the pen and write miracles, again and again, are always ourselves.

In the Ruins of Time, Khaslana guarded a prison forged with rage. Irontomb trembled within his chest. He was its perfect vessel, and must also become its destined casket.

The Titans transformed into the memories that walk with us, silencing the heavy reverberation in his heart. As the tokens were gathered and the arrow was released, every companion stood with Khaslana.

> **Phainon:** The epic draws to a close... thirty million cycles of light, fading into darkness... just for this moment... to welcome the true dawn.

After thirteen heartbeats, the factors that served as the source of the Scepter's power infused the Erudition's calculations with the Remembrance, purifying the Destruction equation that had engulfed the universe into a blank.

The cosmos attained rebirth. On the epic's final page, the heroes boarded the silver chariot,{{ :external:amphoreus:saga-composed-tomorrow-yesterday-8.jpg?200|}} leaving laughter and goodbyes in their wake. Every star that the Trailblaze passes by will remember the name of Amphoreus.

Life which once existed in this world, will cross paths with us again in the future.

;#;
//Hello, World!\\
Hello, Amphoreus!//
;#;

//**Sender: Phainon**//

//I have been waiting for this decisive battle, to prove that thirty million cycles of sin were not in vain. Now, the Worldbearing kindling no longer burns in futility, its final flames illuminating the true dawn. On behalf of Amphoreans, we present this long epic tot he stars. And as humans who defy the gods, I bestow this world-cleansing golden blood to our comrades. When your will is strong enough to roar against destiny, even the gods themselves shall bleed.//

> **Screwllum:** This golden blood, used for the deep purification of the Irontomb Virus, will be solemnly contained with the highest reverence by Planet Screwllum and the Xianzhou Alliance. The cosmos will forever engrave this golden epic in its memory, awaiting the inevitable reunion to come.
