    ok this time I have a good reason for using the same decription and its cause im sick and dont wanna type a new one. anyway talking about stellaron hunter sam, firefly and more penacony lore and story. still using the same description cba. talking about gallagher, sunday death and a bit about robin. gallagher the talk of the town cause of enigmata but what does that mean. reusing the same description as last hsr video im in a very lazy mood rn and just wanna sleep lol. this should clear things up about sunday death with gallagher in the hsr story however. jesus I sounds so cranky in the recording. i should not have filmed this after losing the 50/50 for acheron and then losing the 75/25 on her weapon but oh well. Honkai Star Rail 2.1 dropped and the New Trailblaze Story Quest featuring Penacony mission called The Devil in Velvet was a bit of a banger obviously chalked full with exciting lore, in it we learned more about the deaths of robin and firefly, gained some insight into acheron motives, and perhaps even saw Sundays death towards the end of the game. gallagher somehow despite being a 4 star became the most important character. robin looks to still be alive, and firefly is sam and we saw boothill and the everflame mansion come into play, jade has made an appearance and we learned alot about aventurine lore and his story. and guys please dont leaks anything in the comments. yes i saw the robin and boothill gameplay leaks, they look sick I get it, but les have some class fellas

      From a certain point of view, it makes sense that he would give us so much information. One of the best ways to conceal a lie is to bundle it with the truth. As long as the parts of the story that we can verify are true, we would be more likely to take a single important lie that can't be easily verified to be true as well. And that would be assuming that he lied at all. It is possible to deceive someone without lying by omitting key details and playing to their assumptions.
      It's rather like his disguise. Every element of his disguise belongs to a true member of the family, but no member possesses all of the elements at once.

    How did she failed to tell the truth 11 time? few that i noticed is:
    1. chased around by the hunds while she is on disguise. thus no combat allowed back in golden hour. delaying her meeting with MC.
    2. Distracted by Sampo (sparkle) stalking them both and forced to give us "tour guide" to rat the stalker out and later dragged around by said stalker to another little adventure multiple time including tatalov dream of trash king and adventure of hanu
    3. Interrupted by clockie when acheron is harassed by the mob
    4. Interrupted by Sampo (sparkle) again and sent to the dreamscape hotel (they are sent to different place and firefly almost exposed on killing the monster there)
    5. Interrupted by the meme grabbing her. it almost forced her to fight there.
    6. Interrupted by black swan who woke MC up splitting them both then run MC around the long way in dream hotel. (If black swan bypass the double door on the hall, where thy met acheron, it will led them both directly to the lobby much faster)
    7 Interrupted by Meme again with it killing her without chance to explain
    8 Interrupted by Black swan again that led MC and acheron on goose hunt for firefly memory
    9. Interrupted by Black swan and acheron who ended fighting her
    10 Interrupted by black swan who teleport mc to aventurine before she could grab the MC.
    11. Stuck on dreamscape and can only waiting for aventurine event to end.
    You can see firefly face getting annoyed in those interruption. i.e: when she realized sampo stalking, when meme grab her etc

Considering my past experiences with the Garden of Recollection by playing this game, I don't trust anyone from the Remembrance. Nobody has the right to take someone's memories. Plus, the claim of "memories don't lie", is not true. As someone irl who has had many times I misremember things, memories CAN lie. That's what I call "forgeries" of memories

    In the anniversary event, you have an occurrence where you can cross paths with Sam, and she will try to tell us something (presumably "the truth") only to get called away by SW.
    ...I interpret this as Sam living an actual romcom, never just spitting it out before someone interrupts the moment. (cue 11 episodes of anime before the confession)
    Edit: I have seen theories that Firefly was on comms with SW and that SHE told her to go "mecha" after setting up the death, much to her dismay. Swan admits that her recreation of the memoria is incomplete, so parts of the conversation making this obvious might have been missing. Ie, it only LOOKS like Firefly was betrayed, when in reality, she was just struggling to follow SW/Elio's instructions, then tried texting our pic together before we showed up right when the meme took the bait at the planned location, hence her "sorry."

    One of my theories is that the suit does have some sentience and tried to save firefly. But she had a mission so she had to die. Mecha sounds like a nickname a girl would give to their loyal armour. Also her coming back in four minutes could be two things. Either as you said and its time flow difference, or its the fact that she is so connected to the real world that she cant stay on the other side for too long. It could also be both.

    My theory is that the 11 is the times Firefly tried to enter the other side of Penacony. Timewise it doesn't make sense that Firefly tried 11 times to tell us the truth, when we find her we don't even have an hour in the Dream. The 11th time she tried to enter the otherside was with the Death Meme and she fails and spawnback where she died, that's why we find SAM in the exact position. As for all the burned enemy idk maybe she tried to bait the Meme into attacking her by causing a scene.

      indeed there seems to be a time issue; but we know that time is not always linear in the honkaiverse
      so it could be those 11 failures were times when firefly (post meme death) wouldve made contact with MC (pre firefly meme death)
      the boundary of xipe for penacony could have time desync between the outside and inside
      the acheron we meet during the Astral Express's jump outside of penacony dreamscape is more knowledgeable about how the memory zone works than the acheron we encounter within penacony dreamscape proper

    • @Kamishi845
      @Kamishi845 Před měsícem +5

      There are a lot of time issues with this event in general; after replaying the story in 2.0 again, the most noticeable is how EVERYONE knew about Firefly dying almost at the very moment after she did, but it begs the question, who spread the news and so quickly? It cannot be Acheron because she's considered a trespasser who is not really allowed into Penacony and we later see her face off with Sam, it cannot be the Trailblazer because he's with Aventurine, it cannot be Aventurine because he was not at the scene and he reveals that he did not know about Firefly until after the fact, and it cannot be Black Swan because she was with the Trailblazer and Aventurine. So reasonably speaking based on who was present, the only person who could have spread the news about Firefly's death was Firefly herself, but she was also a wanted stowaway and Sam is a Stellaron Hunter and would never be allowed to set foot on Penacony. There would no reason for her to that.
      So the only other plausible possibility is that it must have been Gallagher, because at least we know he is connected to the Memory Zone Meme, even if we do not know how and we do not know if he was actually present at the scene. It would also explain how the Family got news about it so quickly because it makes no sense for anyone to spread the news about Firefly dying, at least not so quickly, because you don't know how the Family is going to react to the fact when they come to realize that the PC is breaking every rule there is in Penacony, amicable terms or not. Another thing which irks me is the obvious intent to hide Sam's true nature by having Silver Wolf for example refer to him with male pronouns.
      I feel that good mystery stories should not intentionally obfuscate clues so the player cannot figure out the plot themselves. As much as we could have speculated that Sam and Firefly were the same person, there was simply no real evidence to support it besides certain events seeming to be correlated. However, correlation does not mean causation.

    It might also be worth exploring that Black Swan could have just been lying with the memories, or at least being very selective. She was trying to get Acheron and Sam to fight so she could get TB away from them. Making it look like "Sam" betrayed firefly would be a good way to get Acheron to fight without letting "Sam" explain.

  • @hiimbobbyo631
    @hiimbobbyo631 Před měsícem +34

    Sam/firefly couldn’t reach where adventurine got to, that’s why she said she tried 11 times and failed. I assumed they woke up and reentered the dream pretty quickly and transformed in the dreamscape and made it back to the spot.. perhaps to get back to the trailblazer only for black swan to wisk her away leaving them with Acheron. I also thought the other mute was Robyn? Because she’s obviously not dead, but probably unable to speak either from being afraid to tell the truth, or being held by someone. That’s what I thought was going on but I’ve noticed so many conflicting census’s

  • @kenkaneki3873
    @kenkaneki3873 Před měsícem +188

    Very easy answer.
    Mecha is Sam.
    She called out Mecha because her transformation didn't work.
    She said Mecha instead of Sam because she's Sam not the armor this is similiar to saying something like "stupid controller" if it starts drifting etc.
    The "betrayel" was Silverwolf. Each Stellaron Hunter has their own script that the other members do not know about.
    Very likely, SW's script told her to create a scenario that would force Firefly into a different route and be killed by the Meme infront of TB.
    Sam malfunctioning would also be explained by this as Silverwolf has Aether Editing which literally allows her to hack reality if she feels like it so she most likely hacked the armor and made it unusable until she get's stabbed.
    In the same scenario, SW probably hacked a backdoor route for Firefly to return back minutes later as Sam

      Following Silver Wolfs story quest, the last scene with her and kafka indicate theres some level of knowledge with regards to eachothers scripts, kafka says to silver wolf
      "im in elios next script, did you forget"?
      and responds silver wolf states shes not in it,
      so it sounds like they are aware of one anothers scripts. also i dont think we know enough about firefly and sam, to definitively say whether the transformation broke down for some reason when we arent aware of how it works, but I would like to hear ur reasoning if youve got more

      Firefly doesn't know what's going on so she tries to transform to get out. She notices it doesn't work and that her route is cut off so she heads outside on a different route.
      We catch up with her shortly after.
      This moment is crucial and despite being a meme face I think people overlooked the body language that happened. Firefly turns around and has a very serious look as she turns around but instantly softens her expression in the next second after she sees TB is here too.
      This is crucial because it implies at this moment she truly didn't know what was going to happen and the mere arrival of TB made her drop her guard.

    Consiering this is memory-space, what about the following: Firefly is Sam, and Sam is Firefly. But! Sam and Firefly are distinct enough personas that 'Sam' can act individually in the Memory Zone.
    When the Meme died, the part of her that is humen (and thus can dream/experience death/w.e.) was jetisoned too the other side of the barrier, tied like by a Bungee cord to Sam. So she got a few moments beyond the barrier before Sam - acting as an anchor - pulled her back in.
    Maybe that's why Sam went on a rampage - and why he acted so un thought out in his attempt to get us away from Black Swan. Because is was 'just Sam', as it were, just the killing machine and not the girl.

    I just thought about something, if Gallagher is a minion of enigmata then wouldn't his ultimate goal be to obfuscate the truth? So then why would he control 'Death' an entity that seemingly sends people directly to the truth. It is adds correlation to the 3 murders we know were committed by 'Death' that they were all seeking the truth and also adds weight to the words that Gallagher spoke at the end. "It's all just fate playing a cruel joke on us." the joke to Sunday being that Robin is dead but not dead, and the joke on Gallagher is that 'Death' keeps revealing the truth to everyone seeking it when he wants to keep it hidden.

    I think the armor probably has some sort of sentience to it
    Firefly (in Sam form) said she tried to reveals the truth to Trailblazer multiple times but failed 11 times
    And I think some of the failed attempts are when Firefly get caught by the Death Meme for the first time, she looks like she's trying to do something (summon Sam probably) but failed. It's like the armor won't allow her to do that, cuz it was off 'script'
    And her conversation with 'mecha', where she said "This is not what we agreed" also sounds like she wants to do something off 'script' again and yet, the armor won't allow her to, again

    I stand-by my theory that "Sam" and "Firefly" are different entities - my guess is that Sam is like an on-board A.I. for the armor. The Iron Calvary Knights (which Sam is all but confirmed to have been a part of) reportedly took their orders from a figure who was known as 'Titania the Empress'. It would seem that either Firefly just, straight up *is* Titania or she's acting as a stand-in for her, and that's why "Sam" follows her orders...m-mostly it would seem. The implication seems to be that the OG Calvary knights couldn't disobey Titania, but Firefly very *obviously* doesn't have that same level of control over Sam. My guess then is that they had a disagreement on the plan (it seems most likely that 'Mecha' took exception to the idea of *letting Firefly get herself killed* because DUH), but our determined little performer found a way anyways. I also stand-by my theory that Firefly knows *how* to get the Land of Exile but has repeatedly failed to actually crossover - there'd be no need to try and bait Acheron into slashing her if she had seen everything already. So most likely? She 'died' and then very painfully *bounces* off the barrier and back into the Memory Zone proper.

    Before you ask who Firefly or Sam is, you have to know that, Sam is the Glamoth's very last Iron Cavalry Knight, an artificially created lifeform to fight against the Swarm. The planetary ornament relic Glamoth has the image of an Iron Cavalry Knight in it.
    Now, I think Sam and Firefly are the same person, or more precisely, a mecha core and a pilot created together as one single entity of the Iron Calvary Knight. As an artificially created lifeform, I guess they cannot dream, just as Sam said he can't dream, but that begs the question of how he enters the dreamscape, which only led to one answer - Silver Wolf's hacking. I'm guessing if someone who cannot dream, they can't pierce the barrier to cross into the other side, the true Penacony, therefore Sam tried 11 times of killing him or herself, but none worked... Another interesting point, I don't think Firefly's actual body is in Penacony at all, he's being injected by Silver Wolf remotely.
    As for Gallagher, I have my doubt that he's also one of the Masked Fool, taking facets of dozen other people to create his dreamscape avatar - that nobody from the Bloodhound recognize this person. Either that... or Gallagher is the watchmaker (or his assistant), because he's so omnipotent to be able to bypass Family's control and create his avatar like that, as well as controlling the Death's Meme to his bidding... or should I say invite them to the other side of the barrier through stabbing them 🤣

    I would say a lot of what happened with Sam can be attributed to the script.
    Elio can see different possibilities, regardless of the complexity of the situation (on the Luofu Kafka is questioned by the Matrix, this working based on knowledge from Nous), or the variable outcomes (in Kafka's story she knows what our refusal changes the possible future into).
    Sam probably had 11 possibilities to take a detour in the script to "create" a moment in time when she could reveal to us her identity, but at the end we see only the reveal and the failed attempt.
    Considering how quickly and cleanly Kafka and Silver Wolf conducted their mission on Herta's space station... For Sam to place herself in front of the meme, in the correct spot at the correct time for the version of events she was already told would happen, to trick Black swan and to still beat Aven on the time schedule... It seems appropriate. Also Sam is definitely the most efficient, precise and no-bs of the Hunters from what we know of their description. A precise performer for this script.

      My theory is Gallagher knew she was SAM from the start, but deliberately misdirected the bloodhounds chasing her so he could strike a deal with her. He was the one she was walking with in the Reverie, and the one who betrayed her. We know how rhetorical Gallagher can get from how he spoke to Sunday at the end of 2.1, so it would make a lot of sense if it was a similarly rhetorical conversation that prompted Firefly to say “Mecha…?” in response.

    I think the truth can not be said if you are in the dreamscape. It automatically sets you on mute if you try to reveal the truth. I think this is why Robin cant talk since she found the truth but was silenced and she cant also use her voice which is given by the harmony due to the restriction.
    Firefly cant say the truth since they are actually mute. In the story quest firefly mentions that she has a sickness causing her body to be unable to move. I think this is why Sam is a bit of a different entity since sam is her caretaker/robot butler who she is incased in. Like a mecha pilot stuck in the suit and the suit is the only thing keeping her moving/alive

    It's not said anywhere that it is incapable of working autonomously through a built-in AI, the Galmoth planar set does imply that those Mechas seem to have autonomy while they are directed by "Titania".
    To support this, in the fight against Sam, we only see it use normal fire attacks and yet, in the White Night trailer, we can clearly see Sam use another kind of energy.

    Re the Mutes that Sparkle mentioned:
    - "But one is dead now": This could be the ("original") Watch Maker, Mikhail. By all accounts (Gallagher) he's now dead "in a place where no one could find him".
    - "the other... Though HE's still in Penacony, I'm afraid you'll never find him again": Either he's an actual "He" ( barring a mistranslation / misdirection in the dialog), or it refers to someone vague... Which 4star, ice character, who can't be heard or seen by anyone else in Penacony have we not seen in a long time?
    That leaves the question: did Firefly or Robin actually reach that Special place?
    Robin: Possibly didn't, but is being kept hidden by the Family because she was getting too close to the truth.
    Firefly: Mecha could be some sort of sentient armor that is "protecting" Firefly. If you think of "Sam" as the sentient armor personality (think Iron Man's armor), that is meant to protect Firefly from harm and he found out that Firefly was planning to "die" or how far Firefly was actually willing to go to get to the Watchmaker's Legacy, Sam could be the one who lead her into the dead-end and locked the room. This could also explain how Firefly was able to get back so soon: As soon as her vital signs dropped, some sort of internal defibrilator kicked in and revived her.

    On a completely unrelated note, Elio relationship with everyone is quite interesting. For lore reason I'm keeping tab on all of them (only canon stuff i know of tho).
    Weather you hate him or love him I think we can all agreed, that dude MAX out his Charisma stats.
    Kafka stay with Elio till she can fear death.
    Kafka herself implies that Elio and her might have bang.
    Kafka: Elio gift you to me as a gift
    The "gift" here could have 2 different meanings.
    MC's relationship with Elio is quite interesting as well, according to Blade MC use to work with Elio and following Kafka around.
    If this is true then the version of MC that didn't lose their memories most likely trusted Elio so much to the point of agreeing to have their memories wipe just to follow his plan...kinda insane to be honest.
    Silver Wolf is a simple one she just want to follow Elio around that's about it.
    According to the web event minigame . When Silver Wolf first join the group Elio assign Silver Wolf her first mission. Elio also assign Kafka to assist Silver Wolf , Kafka didn't feel like doing it so she pushes that responsiblity on to Blade and that is how Silver Wolf meet Blade for the first time.
    From what I know Blade's relationship with Elio is pretty good.
    According to Kafka from the web event. Blade and Elio did not get along at first but after sometime the two of them have become quite good friends.
    Blade stay quiet and didn't denied any of Kafka's claim.
    For Firefly she straight up decided to stay with Elio till the day she die.
    Other than that not much lore yet
    Fuli the Aeon of remembrance.
    Fuli did mention Elio by name once and they also tell us Elio's goal.
    Still not sure what kind of connection these two has tho.
    Acheron also knows who Elio is, addressing him as Destiny's Slave, not only that she also know about the "script". From what I know, only those who knows about Elio will address him either by name or by his title and so far only those from the Stellaron Hunter would know about the "script".
    She also ask did Elio put her in the "script" and this is why Sam/Firefly ask Acheron "who exactly are you?"
    Still not much lore yet
    Jingliu.
    Hear me out
    During the Quintet quest Jingliu did mention Elio by title when talking with Blade.(she ask something about Elio but I forgot)
    According to Jingliu story she survived the fight with Jing Yuan (not sure how, maybe someone save her) and then she traveled to multiple worlds to find a cure for her Mara struck and apperantly someone help her. Now she got that blindfold .
    Is this connection a bit of a stretch? Yes.
    Believe it or not Sparkle is also here.
    Near the end of Penacony first quest if you decline Adventurine's offer then talk to BlackSwan at the exit door a credit screen will start playing, everybody got the ??? Except for Sparkle so this credit screen was created by her.
    The interesting part here is that during the very end of the credit screen she put "Script Superviser" and under it she put Elio's name.

There's two Memokeepers (really odd because Black Swan mentions this but it hasn't been relevant at all yet), two Galaxy Rangers (Acheron and Boothill), two Masked Fools (Sparkle and Sampo), two IPC agents (Aventurine and Ratio, or Aventurine and Topaz), and two Stellaron Hunters (Sam and Silver Wolf).

    sparkle and sam show us that it is possible to distort appearance and other things even in the controlled section of penacony memory zone.
    lets not forget that silverwolf is also about penacony acting as a handler of sort.
    my guess: using the properties of the memory zone sam was split into two: firefly and mecha. and using the death of the part of themself that is firefly and cast to the outside of the barrier to find a path via something "soul link resonance" ish. The stellaron hunter goal isnt to explore the outside of the boundary themselves but to get the astral express crew there, so sam only needed to focus on rejoining asap. Adventurine on the other hand, is more of a solo player.
    11 times: it is possible that the boundary wall has a time distortion, such that one can enter and approach the broken sections of penacony (such as the quarantined hotel) at prior chronological point; perhaps this is what is going on with acheron during our first encounter as the memory zone in the train and before the room is not part of penacony proper.

But we've know that the stowaway is Firefly, meaning that Gallager was lying to the hounds, or their reports were somehow wrong or changed by most likely silver wolf. This makes sense because we know Gallager doesn't have the best relationship with the Family, so Gallager might be working with Firefly in order to get back at them. It could also be that there is another silver haired stowaway who died, but since we've never seen them to confirm their identity or gender, who knows.

  • @deri_yaki
    @deri_yaki Před měsícem +1

    My theory on Firefly and Sam: Yes, they are the same, but no, they aren't. What I mean, is, Sam, as a Glamoth Iron Calvary, is his own entity. Special thing about Glamoth's Iron Calvary is that they can't function without their Queen who's named Titania, as they are commanded strictly by her, but since Glamoth was wiped out, theorhetically, Sam shouldn't be able to function on his own. This is where Firefly comes in. She is the "Titania" for Sam, and instead of telepathically controlling him, she controls him physically, using him as a mech suit. Reason why I think this is because Firefly's motifs are all about butterflies and fairies. The name Titania belongs to Titania the Queen of Fairies, hence the parallels between Firefly and her. Basically, Sam cannot exist (read: function, im sure his body can exist, just never be used), without Firefly and vice versa, (given the cracks in her face and her illness) Firefly can't live without Sam, as he's basically her life support.
    Another part of this theory is the fact she does call attention to a "Mecha" when she is escaping. And yes, I do think this is an act, but at the same time, I'm sure she can "communicate" with Sam, as they are separate entities, and she can call him forth with that object in her hands, which allows her to utilize his body. The switch after her death is explainable: I'm sure after witnessing the "truth", She was pulled out of that memory zone and back into the one we're in with BS and Acheron, by Silver Wolf. Silver Wolf has the ability to reality hack, making it possible for her to "hack" into the dreamscape (this is how Sam/Firefly even ended up in the Dreamscape anyway, as she is accounted as a "stowaway" and thus have been in Penacony for a while (Firefly said as much when we meet her), and why she can't leave on her own). It probably wouldn't have taken her much to transport Firefly from the Penacony Backrooms back to the Dreamscape.
    While I'm at it, I'd like to point out another strange thing about Firefly. During the "date" we have with her when we first meet her, she points out that we're being tailed by Sampo (Sparkle), yet despite how she says he's skilled in concealing his footsteps, she somehow still notices, and not only notices, but can accurately describe him (mentions he uses daggers and even approximates his height). Whether this be because of her identity as Sam or her connection to him, or if it's a byproduct of her declining health, making her senses much sharper than normal people's it's still pretty strange, since Sampo and by extension Sparkle, since she can perfectly replicate everything about a person, is highly skilled in stealth, yet was detected by some girl. Or this could be connected to her in the sense of Titania, who had no "physical" power but can do things telepathically and maybe that's how she detected him? Either way, Firefly is pretty mysterious for being some sickly girl.

    I thought it was the suit having an ai kinda like iron man so there's a perceived separation between the suit and the wearer's identity. Sam also seems to change tune fast when Acheron decides against fighting. I also wonder if Firefly may have control abilities from far away or joint mental link. Sam says no to taking off the suit to Acheron as well, so maybe that's because the other self is not in it at the time.
    In general I think the mecha is still Sam and just the ai of the machine interrupting what Firefly was trying to do because of ai protection instinct or something.
    I'm thinking the Sam fight was mostly the ai but around the time Acheron stopped the fight Firefly got back control from her new location.

    Okay, just because she says "All that I am" does NOT entirely prove that Firefly and Sam are one and the same, at least in the sense you're thinking. Yes, Firefly is in the suit, but Sam could just as well be an entirely different person, another consciousness inside that actually pilots/controls the suit and battles. This "Mecha" could just be Sam and what Firefly calls him. As for the betrayal, my theory is that while Firefly is in the suit, she's not always conscious when Sam is piloting. In other words, it's possible Sam was given a "script" that differs from Firefly's. And perhaps dying in front of the Trailblazer wasn't part of her "script" and saw that as a betrayal.
    But this is just my thought process. I just find it ridiculous that Sam and Firefly are literally the same person, as in everything Sam says is what Firefly is saying, like that's how Firefly actually talks? Really? Unless our adventure with Firefly in 2.0 was her roleplaying as a cute girl that entire time, that's completely ridiculous! They have two completely different personalities!

    @RandomPerson-cc9mn Před měsícem +1

    I think the mecha thing is probably just part of Elio's script. He probably had SW control the mecha, and then betray Firefly. He can predict the future, so presumably he should have known that Black Swan might look into the memory (and obviously he can't let us know Firefly/Sam's identity yet, since Firefly's "death" was necessary as the catalyst for us to look into the watchaker's legacy). I think it was also "real" in the sense that I don't think Firefly knew it was happening, so I think it was part of SW's script. Its possible Firefly was in on it, but I think she probably didn't know, because it makes more sense for her not to know since it'd make her reactions more genuine (unless she's just meant to be a really good actress).
    Then, since she was already in communication with SW, that's probably how she got past so fast. SW just hacked her back into the dream world, pretty much exactly where she was. Which is the only explanation I can think of for how she got back so fast.
    Also, I don't think she's the mute being referred to. Whoever the mute is, they crossed to the other side. Its already hard to explain how Firefly got back in like 4 minutes. I do not believe she crossed to the other side and learned the dark secrets of Penacony in those 4 minutes. And if she happened to cross in some other way, how would Adventurine and Acheron know about it? It also doesn't make sense with Firefly's line about Adventurine not being able to see her again, cause I think he could probably find Sam. So I still think they were both referring to Robin.
    And I think the other one who Adventurine will never find again refers to Misha. Not for any particular reason other than that if its not Robin (I think Robin was the "dead now" one), and its not Firefly (because she never crossed to the other side), then what other character even makes sense there? Misha is the only other character who even makes sense to me for that, unless it just refers to some character we haven't met but I feel like it refers to someone we know.
    Alternatively, the "dead now" could have referred to Mikhail, the only important named character I can think of who is actually dead, or Misha (something seems off about him and he seems almost surprised we know he exists, maybe he even is Mikhail somehow but that seems far fetched). That would mean Robin is the one who Adventurine will never meet again (and "him" is a translation error or something), which makes more literal sense since I think both Firefly and Adventurine know Robin isn't dead.

    It's always been a theory that Sam and Firefly are still separate entities, like Iron Man, you've got Stark and the AI in the Armor. The problem is, the battle with Sam from 2.0 and the cutscene of Acheron amd Sam from 2.1 happened after each other. Firefly should be Sam when she fought Acheron. But it's more likely that they're still separate at the fight even when Sam was talking to Acheron.
    The most probable theory would be that Firefly got clapped, she went outside the Dreamscape, and then got out and woke up in like 2 seconds, found out the truth, went looking for Gallagher or the Family (hence why she was attacking the monsters)

Maybe like how Childe was trapped in abyss for months but due to how time works in the abyss for people outside it was three days inside it was months this might be same for that place where time works differently as “the land of exile” it might explain how fast firefly came out for her it was possibly hours or who knows maybe days but for us it was three or four minutes and fun fact: this also happens in irl just not as much they called time zones
    And when you think about it. It makes lot of sense specially how fast firefly came out as Sam
    Also if I recall correctly aren’t there eleven or twelve dreamscapes in peacony maybe she looked for us there after all we met her in golden hour or she encountered smt else
    Hence why she said I failed eleven times but I can’t think of much tho
    Maybe the meme “death” can sent people to land of exile hence how she managed to visit the place also is possible Gallagher chooses people not based off random but on people he met or to test the waters and show the true Peacony(I think I spelled it right) expose them for what they’re worth also maybe since we can’t Gallagher direct info we could possibly make it opposite one he might know who the true watch maker Two he knew firefly was stellaron hunter and used that to his advantage spawning her in exile Three how tf is he alive if I remember correctly didn’t aeon of enigmatic died?

    "He is still alive" is what is said regarding the second mute. What about Misha? Most cannot perceive him. Thus he cannot speak to anyone about anything.
    He also has some kind of connection to the watchmaker. I personally think he inherited the title from the original. He has time-like powers, his broom attacks use a substance similar to that of the "blood" that comes out of people dieing by the meme. And the meme has a low, but existing possibility to lead people beyond the barrier.
    Sooo it might be possible that Misha, upon realizing his powers, went beyond the barrier, lived through it, but cannot speak about it. Because even if people perceive him, they forget about him. He said he was glad Trailblazer remembered him.
    So by finding and befriending him, you´d have a 3rd access route to beyond the barrier. Something Trailblazer could use without being slashed by Gallagher or Acheron.
    Firefly could be disspelled as really failing 11 times and finally accept that she has to go by the script. Working with Trailblazer. The one closest to "the safe route". And thus "deeply intertwined" by fate.
