==== Fresh Seed of Dawn ====
{{ :inventory:fresh-seed-dawn.png?100|}}
Legend has it that Amphoreus once hosted a beauty pageant where several renowned beauties each plucked a fruit from the golden apple tree. Mnestia declared that the contestant who returned the following year with their golden apple still intact would be deemed the most beautiful.\\
When the year passed, none of the contestants succeeded in the trial — even the finest golden apples had rotted, just as even the most radiant faces inevitably fade with time. But in the third year, an ordinary-looking peasant girl returned, not with an apple, but with a new seedling. She explained that she had been deeply saddened by the golden apple's decay and had carefully gathered the seeds from the rotting fruit, planting them to nurture a new tree. Moved by her actions, Georios appeared and urged Mnestia to crown the peasant girl as the most beautiful contestant.\\
Mnestia, however, was reluctant, unable to see any beauty in the girl. At that moment, Georios called upon Oronyx to cover Mnestia's eyes with the veil of night. The instant Mnestia lost their sight, they perceived the brilliance of the peasant girl's heart and joyfully awarded her the title.

==== Mythus Knots ====
{{ :inventory:mythus-knots.png?100|}}
To make the divine revelations of the Mythus even more mysterious, the History Fictionologists whipped up something known as Mythus Knots that contain a blend of rumors, secrets, legends, and myths. Historians would then blend such misinformation into what was supposed to be certain and rigid historical facts, with the aim to bring about a future of uncertainty for the universe. According to the History Fictionologists, the course of history is limited by the "narrative drive" in the minds of its observers. If something can be done to mix myths into facts, the universe will be covered in the "mist of uncertainty," allowing it to escape the calamity that is doomed to happen.

==== Tear Crystal of Glorious Death ====
{{ :inventory:tear-crystal-glorious-death.png?100|}}
A Mourning Actor took a gondola and rowed towards a silent world of barrenness, humming an elegy for civilizations long gone. Not a single soul could be found at the site of the doomsday battlefield, but like nacre, the world that had turned into ashes gave birth to pearls of sorrow. The ghosts of the past condensed into clouds and rained down crystals like teardrops. The Actor held a fine grain of such crystal in hand and immediately heard in a dream the glorious chorus of civilizations at their height — heroes with godly might, starships like towering mountains, the whimper of stars, and the rage of the enemy. The Actor became restless in sleep, dragged into silent dreams.

> //"Every single joy I had in my dreams breaks my heart."//

==== Phase Flame ====
{{ :inventory:phase-flame.png?100|}}
Sserkal, #29 of the Genius Society, only lived 29 days by human measures of time. Despite that, she put her short life as a spider to good use, inventing new technologies that would have taken the spider-kind thousands of years to develop. Of all her inventions, the most famous must be the technique known as Phase Change.\\
What people don't know is that this technique was first applied to experiments with ions. She successfully created Phase Flame, which almost immediately changed to another phase. By the time the Flame returned to the Sserkal Phase, our genius had already passed away. She tried to harness the Flame but had too little time to do so. Thus, the Phase Flame continued to change between phases across different worlds, leaving behind the seeds of flame.

> //"Sserkal's life was remarkable. She was smart, kindhearted, and above all, humble. She remained curious and inquisitive, asking her final question in the club on the last day of her life, the answer to which has not been found to this day."//

==== Interdimensional Leaf ====
{{ :inventory:interdimensional-leaf.png?100|}}
The gravity of the planet Arivanta is not fixed. Rather, it changes all the time according to a Bode plot due to the influence of Arivanta's three moons. Ordinary lifeforms cannot survive such volatility, so the planet developed its own unique ecosystem, in which the herbal plant Interdimensional Tree is the most famous.\\
For plants in a world where gravity is constantly subject to change, their leaves often have a hard time landing on the planet's ancient and solid ground. It is for this reason that the Interdimensional Trees tend to shake off their leaves rather late in the year. To help their leaves land, these trees, in the course of evolution, gave their leaves the ability to conduct fast short-distant warp-jumps towards the ground at frequencies that cannot be observed by naked eyes. Even so, not every leaf gets to land on the ground. Those lucky enough to make it watch others rise into the sky and burn as they are devoured by the atmosphere.
