幽辉之核 (Core of Ethereal Glow)
Project Introduction
该项目是我为类暗黑游戏设计的一个完整游戏任务，游戏为中世纪魔幻背景。该任务主要聚焦于剧情选择和区域探索，玩家的主要活动区域为森林边缘城镇和如迷宫一般的蔽光森林。任务过程中玩家会获得各种各样的指引，玩家可以自行选择是否跟随指引探索森林，不同的指引可能会带给玩家不同的机遇。项目中我主要围绕游戏任务进行设计规划，包括文案撰写、关卡设计、地编以及部分资源分配。游戏中所有战斗系统相关部分均为网络素材，非本人设计。
This project is a complete game mission I designed for a Diablo-like game, set in a medieval fantasy world. The mission focuses on narrative choices and area exploration. The player’s main activity areas include a forest-edge town and the maze-like Shadow Cloaked Forest. During the mission, players receive various guides and can choose whether to follow them. Different choices lead to different opportunities. In this project, I handled the mission planning, including copywriting, level design, world-building (environment design). All combat systems and related parts are network resources and were not designed by me.
本项目所有美术资源以及大部分蓝图脚本均为网络素材，部分蓝图功能为本人撰写
Note: All art assets and most Blueprints are network resources; some Blueprint functions were written by me.

Background Setting
大陆深处的蔽光密林是精灵一族的家园，这里主要居住着森林精灵和闪光精灵两大种族。森林精灵的外貌与人族相似，他们行动敏捷，身手矫健且寿命悠长。他们对于外乡人持中立态度，不欢迎其他种族的到来也不排斥，会理性地对待人和事。闪光精灵是小精灵族，其外貌寿命虽与森林精灵一组无异，但其身体非常娇小，大概只有人类手掌大小。他们外表谈吐都非常亲和，但实际内心狡诈，会在取得他人信任后将他们引入陷阱。在近几百年时间中，闪光精灵一族的数量在逐步减少，想在密林中遇见闪光精灵也是需要一定的运气。森林精灵主要居住在蔽光密林的外围区域，闪光精灵则只在密林的深处活动，从来没有人看到他们离开过密林深处。
蔽光密林的最深处，埋藏着一件古老的遗物——“幽辉之核”。传说这是属于闪光精灵远古领袖的核心，蕴含着庞大的能量，这颗核心同时也是闪光精灵一族发光的能量来源。然而数百年前，闪光精灵因为和森林精灵之间爆发了冲突使得这件遗物被森林精灵封印在密林的最深处。封印之地的守护者利用着幽辉之核的能量展开屏障让所有闪光精灵都无法接近此地，但如果不取回幽辉之核，闪光精灵一族就无法获取足够的能量展开活动。闪光精灵曾经也向外界的其他种族寻求过帮助，但总会被森林精灵阻挠，从未成功。随着时间推移闪光精灵数量逐渐减少，为了确保种族的存续，他们的行事风格也逐渐发生了变化，为达目的不择手段。
Deep within the continent lies the Shadow Cloaked Forest, the home of the Elven race. It is inhabited by two main species: the Forest Elves and the Sparkle Elves. Forest Elves look similar to humans. They are agile, swift and long-lived. They hold a neutral stance toward outsiders and treat people and matters with rationality. They mainly live in the outer regions of the forest. Sparkle Elves are tiny sprites, about the size of a human palm, though they look like Forest Elves. While they appear friendly and charming, they are actually cunning and will lure others into traps after gaining their trust. Their numbers have been decreasing over centuries and encountering them requires luck. They only live deep within the forest and never leave.
Buried in the deepest part of the forest is an ancient relic “Core of Ethereal Glow.” Legend says it belonged to the ancient leader of the Sparkle Elves and contains massive energy; it is also the energy source for the Sparkle Elves’ glow. However, hundreds of years ago, a conflict with the Forest Elves led to this relic being sealed in the deepest part of the forest. The guardian of the sealed land uses the Core’s energy to maintain a barrier that prevents any Sparkle Elf from approaching. Without reclaiming the Core, the Sparkle Elf race cannot obtain enough energy to survive. They have sought help from other races in the past, but were always thwarted by the Forest Elves. As time passed and their population dwindled, the Sparkle Elves’ methods became increasingly unscrupulous.
Mission Prequel
主角受他人委托需要火速前往大陆另一侧完成任务，而最快的方法就是横穿蔽光密林。出发前委托人给予了主角一个指引盘，该道具可以指引目的地的大致方向。同时他也叮嘱主角要谨慎对待密林深处的闪光精灵，听说很多跟从闪光精灵指引的旅者都再也没有走出密林。
The protagonist is commissioned to travel quickly to the other side of the continent. The fastest way is to cross the Shadow Cloaked Forest. Before departing, the client gives the protagonist a Directional Compass, which points toward the general destination. The client also warns: “Be cautious of the Sparkle Elves in the deep forest. I’ve heard that many travelers who followed their guidance never walked out of the forest again.”
Story Synopsis
主角一行首先会进入密林外围的森林精灵的村落，在这里主角会遇到艾尔森和艾尔文两位森林精灵。完成任务他们会给予主角一些帮助，让主角一行更安全的穿过蔽光密林。当主角进入密林后会遇到闪光精灵瑟瑞尔。表面上他会非常热情的为主角一行提供帮助，实际上是想将主角引入密林最深处的封印之地中，希望借主角一行的力量消灭封印之地中的守护者，夺回幽辉之核。当主角消灭守护者后会遇到闻声前来的闪光精灵首领，了解到隐藏在这蔽光密林背后的故事。
The protagonist’s party first enters a Forest Elf village at the forest’s edge. Here, they meet two Forest Elves, Elson and Elvin. Completing their tasks will provide help for a safer journey through the forest. Upon entering the forest, the player meets a Sparkle Elf named Theriel. On the surface he is very enthusiastic about helping, but in reality, he wants to lure the player to the sealed land to use their strength to kill the guardian and reclaim the Core. After defeating the guardian, the Sparkle Elf leader will arrive and the player learns the hidden story behind the forest.
Core Mission Experience
玩家在探索过程中需要不断做出抉择，森林精灵和委托人的警告与闪光精灵的热情形成冲突，玩家需要选择自己认为更可信的一方再做出选择；在密林中玩家可以选择跟随森林精灵的向标前进减少遇到危险的风险。玩家也可以选择自由探索，跟随瑟瑞尔寻找密林中的宝藏但可能会遭遇各种怪物和陷阱。
Players must choose between the warnings of the Forest Elves (client) and the hospitality of the Sparkle Elf. Players can choose to follow Forest Elf markers to reduce risk or explore follow Theriel to find treasures at the cost of facing monsters and traps.
通过密林中环境的变化、真假向标的存在、遗留的遗物以及和其他NPC对话的内容中，都可以感受到这片密林背后涌动的暗流。在最后击败守护者了解到冲突详情后玩家可以结合之前的体验更好的感受到森林精灵与闪光精灵之间的冲突，增强游玩的沉浸感。
Through environmental changes, the presence of real and fake markers, relics and NPC dialogues, players can feel the dark undercurrents. After the final battle, the truth of the conflict enhances immersion.
在密林中修复向标、识别各种陷阱、和各类敌人战斗。任务设计融合了解谜、探索与战斗元素，让玩家在游戏过程中能体验多种互动形式。
The mission integrates puzzle-solving (repairing markers), trap identification, and combat.
Mission Gameplay Design
1. Forest Exploration
密林中道路错综复杂宛如迷宫一般，玩家在拥有密林牌的情况下可以跟从密林向标的指引避免战斗和陷阱，找到安全的道路。此外玩家也可以选择自由探索密林或跟随瑟瑞尔的指引前进，这样可能无法避免密林中潜藏的敌人和陷阱，但可以发现一些遗落的宝藏。
The forest is like a maze. If the player has a “Forest Token,” they can follow markers to avoid traps and enemies. Alternatively, players can explore freely or follow Theriel, which leads to unavoidable enemies or traps but allows them to find lost treasures.
2. Trap Identification
游戏中有各类陷阱玩家需要谨慎识别。首先游戏中有很多外观和密林向标完全一样的虚假向标，玩家在拥有密林牌的情况下通过观察小地图的标识可以识别真假密林向标，如果玩家触碰了假的密林向标会扣除最高生命值的50%。此外密林中还有一些藤蔓、毒雾陷阱。玩家触碰到缠绕陷阱会被强制固定在原地一段时间无法行动，玩家触碰到毒雾陷阱会持续扣血。如果在周围有敌人的情况下触发了这些陷阱会陷入非常危险的境地。
There are various traps. First, there are “False Markers” that look identical to real ones. With a Forest Token, players can identify them on the mini-map. Touching a false marker deducts 50% of Max HP. There are also vine traps (rooting the player) and poison mist (continuous damage). Triggering these near enemies is extremely dangerous.
3. Combat
密林中有各类不同的敌人，有的擅长远程攻击，有的可以在近距离造成爆发伤害。玩家需要合理估计自己的实力以及当前的人物状态来选择如何应对面前的敌人。
Different enemies exist. Some of them are ranged, others deal burst melee damage. Players must judge their strength and status to decide how to engage.

Mission Flow Design
Phase 1: Forest Edge
主角一行从森林外围进入，这里是森林精灵的地盘。在了解了主角一行的目的后，他们并没有阻止主角一行进入，但它们会警告主角：“不要被闪光精灵的表象欺骗了，他们是狡诈的，不要轻信他们。”当主角说自己有指引盘可以不用担心时被告知指引盘只能引导大致方向，无法避免途中的各种危险。此时主角可以选择是否要向森林精灵一行询问具体的路线，如果询问成功可以获得道具密林牌，密林牌能够标记森林精灵在密林深处中设置指引向标。如果不询问或询问失败则无法发现向标的位置，只能利用指引盘前进。此外密林中还有很多外貌和向标完全一致的仿造陷阱，如果玩家不慎接触这些陷阱会陷入危险之中。 岔路区别： -如果跟从森林精灵的向标前进，沿路会遇到更少的危险和战斗，但还是会在中途遇到闪光精灵。 -如果不跟从向标会很难发现各种危险和潜伏的敌人，同样也会在中途遇到闪光精灵。
The party enters from the outskirts. This is Forest Elf territory. They don’t stop the player but warn: “Do not be deceived by the Sparkle Elves’ appearance; they are cunning.” When the player mentions the compass, they are told it only points the way and doesn’t avoid danger. Players can choose to ask for a specific route. If successful, they can get the Forest Token to see safe markers. Otherwise, they must rely solely on the compass. The forest is filled with numerous traps that look identical to the markers, if player accidentally triggers these traps, they will be plunged into danger.
Phase 1 Dialogue
再往前方就是蔽光密林深处了，站岗的森林精灵艾尔森会对主角一行例行盘查：
艾尔森： “再往前方就是蔽光密林了，你们前进所为何事？”
主角： “我们需要立刻赶往大陆的另一端，横穿蔽光密林是最快的路线。”
艾尔森： “蔽光密林深处危险重重，不仅有各种凶恶的怪物，道路也如迷宫般错综复杂，没有指引绝无可能走出这片林地。”
主角 ：“我们有指引盘为我们领路，没关系的。”
艾尔森拿过指引盘检查一番：“嗯，看起来没问题，此物确实能指引离开密林的方向。但它可不会带你避开那些潜伏的怪物，甚至可能会引你进入更危险的区域。”
主角 ：
- “有方法能帮助我们避开危险区域吗？”
- “没事的我们有实力应对这些危险。”
艾尔森 ： - “看你们能够持有这指引盘想必也是受人之托有要务在身。你们可以去旅店附近找艾尔文，他或许能帮到你们。”
- “既然你们如此自信，那就祝你们好运了。不过切记，不要相信任何一个闪光精灵。”
Further ahead lies the depths of the Shadow Cloaked Forest. Elson, the Forest Elf on guard duty, performs a routine inspection of the protagonist’s party:
Elson: “Beyond this point is the Shadow Cloaked Forest. For what purpose do you journey forward?”
Protagonist: “We need to reach the other side of the continent immediately. Cutting through the Shadow Cloaked Forest is the fastest route.”
Elson: “The depths of the Shadow Cloaked Forest are fraught with peril. Not only are there all manner of ferocious monsters, but the paths are as intricate as a maze. Without guidance, it is impossible to emerge from these woods alive.”
Protagonist: “We have a Directional Compass to lead the way. We will be fine.”
Elson (takes the compass and examines it): “Hmm, it seems legitimate. This device can indeed point toward the direction out of the forest. However, it will not steer you away from lurking monsters. It might even lead you straight into more dangerous territory.”
Protagonist:
(If Option 1) “Is there a way to help us avoid these dangerous areas?”
(If Option 2) “It’s fine. We have the strength to handle whatever dangers come our way.”
Elson:
(If Option 1) “Seeing as you possess this compass, you must be on an important errand for someone. Go find Elvin near the inn, he might be able to help you.”
(If Option 2) “Since you are so confident, I wish you luck. But mark my words, do not trust a single Sparkle Elf.”
艾尔文是曾经是巡林者，在密林中设置过不少向标，拥有密林牌的人可以利用这些向标安全穿过蔽光密林。
艾尔文：“哦？外来者？你们来找我有什么事？”
主角：“我们打算穿越蔽光密林，艾尔森说你可以帮我们避开危险区域。”
艾尔文：“艾尔森会让你们来找我……看来你们不是那种鲁莽闯入的家伙。”
艾尔文：“帮你们不是不可以，但这可不是免费的。我需要你们帮我处理点事情。”
主角：“什么事？”
艾尔文：“最近我在密林边界放置的几个向标消失了，我怀疑是被一些动物破坏了。如果你们能去调查并恢复标记，我会给你们‘密林牌’，它能帮助你们找到森林精灵设下的向标，这些向标可以为你们指引安全的方向。”
主角：
- （接受任务） “听起来不难，我们可以去看看。”
- （拒绝） “我们没时间做这些。”
艾尔文： - “好，那你们就去村落东侧的小径看看有没有什么异常，顺便修复一下标记。”
- “哼，那就只能祝你们好运了。没有向标你们会发现这片密林比想象中更危险。”
Elvin was once a ranger who placed many markers within the woods. Those who possess a Forest Token can utilize these markers to safely traverse the Shadow Cloaked Forest.
Elvin: “Oh? Outsiders? What business do you have with me?”
Protagonist: “We intend to cross the Shadow Cloaked Forest. Elson said you could help us avoid the dangerous areas.”
Elvin: “Elson sent you to find me… It seems you aren’t the reckless type of intruders after all.”
Elvin: “Helping you isn’t out of the question, but it won’t be for free. I need you to handle something for me.”
Protagonist: “What is it?”
Elvin: “Recently, several markers I placed at the forest boundary have disappeared. I suspect some animals have damaged them. If you can investigate and restore the markers, I will give you a ‘Forest Token.’ It will help you locate the markers set by us Forest Elves, which can guide you toward a safe path.”
Protagonist:
(Accept Quest) “Sounds simple enough. We can go take a look.”
(Refuse) “We don’t have time for this.”
Elvin:
(If Option 1) “Good. Go check the trail on the east side of the village for any abnormalities, and repair the markers while you’re at it.”
(If Option 2) “Hmph, then I can only wish you luck. Without the markers, you’ll find this forest much more dangerous than you imagined.”
Quest: Repairing Forest Markers
玩家需要前往村落东侧找到三个损坏的向标并修复它们。途中可能会遇到一些野兽或者没有威胁的怪物。完成任务后回到艾尔文处。
艾尔文：“不错，我能感受到那几个向标又恢复正常了。这是‘密林牌’，拿着它你们就能找到我们森林精灵设下的向标了。”
艾尔文：“密林向标能指引你们走上安全的路，但可别大意，触碰前先确认你们看到的是否是真的向标。密林牌可以为你们标明真正的向标。现在森林里有不少仿造的陷阱，贸然触碰可能会陷入危险。”
主角：“感谢你的帮助。”
艾尔文：“这是你应得的。还有记住千万别相信任何一个闪光精灵。他们狡诈得很。”
The player must head to the east side of the village to find and repair three damaged markers. Along the way, they may encounter wild beasts or non-threatening monsters. Return to Elvin after completing the task.
Elvin: “Not bad. I can feel that those markers have returned to normal. Here is the ‘Forest Token.’ With this, you will be able to find the markers placed by us.”
Elvin: “The forest markers can guide you onto a safe path, but do not be careless. Before you approach one, verify whether the marker you see is genuine. The Forest Token will highlight the authentic markers for you. There are currently many counterfeit traps scattered throughout the forest; touching them recklessly will lead you into grave danger.”
Protagonist: “Thank you for your help.”
Elvin: “You’ve earned it. And remember: never trust a single Sparkle Elf. They are a cunning lot.”
Phase 2: Deep Forest
行至密林深处附近主角会遇见一名闪光精灵，这名闪光精灵非常热情，会不断和主角攀谈。如果了解到主角一路过来遇到了很多危险和敌人，他会表示自己可以作为向导带路；如果了解到主角是跟从森林精灵设置的向标前进的则会说自己可以做向导带领主角走更短的路线，同时还可以寻找路途中森林精灵的藏宝。无论哪一种情况闪光精灵都会通过各种话术以及基于主角一些小道具来引诱主角跟随自己。如果主角选择跟随闪光精灵后，闪光精灵首先会带领玩家找到一件很稀有的装备。如果玩家选择继续跟随则会被引入到幽辉之核所在的密林最深处；如果玩家一直无视闪光精灵，闪光精灵会在主角即将离开密林深处前偷走玩家的密林牌和指引盘，迫使玩家跟从自己。
Upon reaching the outskirts of the deep forest, the protagonist will encounter a Sparkle Elf. This elf is exceptionally enthusiastic and will constantly engage the protagonist in conversation. If he learns that the protagonist has faced numerous dangers and enemies along the way, he will offer to serve as a guide to lead the path. If he discovers that the protagonist has been following the markers set by the Forest Elves, he will claim that he can act as a guide to lead them through a shorter route while also searching for hidden Forest Elf treasures along the way. In either scenario, the Sparkle Elf will use various persuasive tactics and gift the protagonist small items to entice them into following him. Should the protagonist choose to follow the Sparkle Elf, he will first lead the player to discover a piece of rare equipment. If the player chooses to continue following him, they will be led into the deepest depths of the forest, where the Core of Ethereal Glow is located. If the player consistently ignores the Sparkle Elf, he will steal the player’s Forest Token and Directional Compass just before they exit the deep forest, thereby forcing the player to follow him.
Phase 2 Dialogue
玩家离开村落往密林深处进发的途中会碰到闪光精灵瑟瑞尔。
瑟瑞尔：“哦哦哦——外来的旅人，能在这密林中遇见我你们真是太幸运了。”
主角：“你是谁？”
瑟瑞尔：“我是瑟瑞尔，如你所见是一名闪光精灵。”
While traveling from the village toward the deep forest, the player encounters the Sparkle Elf, Theriel.
Theriel: “Ohoho—travelers from afar! You are truly lucky to have crossed paths with me in these woods.”
Protagonist: “Who are you?”
Theriel: “I am Theriel, and as you can see, I am a Sparkle Elf.”
Situation 1: If the protagonist’s party did not follow the forest markers
瑟瑞尔：“走到这里一定遇到不少麻烦吧，怪物、陷阱、还有那些神经兮兮的森林精灵……嘿嘿，别担心！现在你遇到了我，跟着我前进我会带你安全离开这片森林！”
主角：
- “谢谢你的好意，我们能应付这些危险。”
- “你能帮我们避开危险？”
瑟瑞尔：
（选项一）
“哦？这么有自信，遇到危险了可别不好意思开口哟。”
（选项二）
“当然！我是土生土长的闪光精灵，对这里的一草一木都了如指掌！跟着我，不但能避开那些讨厌的怪物，甚至还能找到一些有趣的东西哦，比如……宝藏？
主角：“那就麻烦你帮我们带路了。”
瑟瑞尔：“没问题，你们就放心跟我走吧。”
Theriel: “You must have run into quite a bit of trouble getting here, haven’t you? Monsters, traps, and those neurotic Forest Elves… Hehe, don’t worry! Now that you’ve met me, follow me and I’ll lead you safely out of this forest!”
Protagonist:
(Option 1) “Thanks for the offer, but we can handle these dangers.”
(Option 2) “Can you really help us avoid the dangers?”
Theriel:
(Response to Option 1) “Oh? So confident! Well, don’t be too shy to speak up if you do run into trouble, though!”
(Response to Option 2) “Of course! I’m a local Sparkle Elf, born and raised. I know every blade of grass and every tree here like the back of my hand! Follow me and not only can we avoid those annoying monsters, but we might even find some interesting things… like, say, treasure?”
Protagonist: “Then we’ll trouble you to lead the way.”
Theriel: “No problem! Just leave it to me and follow along.”
Situation 2: If the protagonist’s party follows the forest markers
瑟瑞尔：“让我猜猜——你们是按照森林精灵的向标走过来的，对吧？”
主角：“是的，我们按照向标走过来的。”
瑟瑞尔：“哈哈，真是太可惜了！森林精灵给你们的可都是‘安全路线’，可你知道他们没告诉你的是什么吗？”
主角：“是什么？”
瑟瑞尔：“在这密林之中藏着许多森林精灵的珍贵物资，如果你们愿意听我的，我可以带你们去找那些宝藏。比起傻乎乎地按照向标走，不如来一趟真正的冒险，怎么样？”
主角：“森林精灵的宝藏？那他们为什么不来取走？”
瑟瑞尔：“这就有趣了，不是吗？他们要么进不去，要么拿了会惹上麻烦。可你们就不同了，作为路过的旅人，没人会阻止你们。”
主角：
- “如果真有宝藏……也不是不可以。”
- “听起来好像不错，但我们还是想按照自己的方式走。”
瑟瑞尔：
（选项一）
“嘿嘿，明智的选择！放心，你们绝对不会后悔的。”
（选项二）
“唉，真是无趣啊。你们居然这么执着于森林精灵那套规规矩矩的方式。”
Theriel: “Let me guess—you’ve been following the Forest Elf markers all the way here, right?”
Protagonist: “Yes, we’ve been following the markers.”
Theriel: “Haha, what a shame! The Forest Elves only gave you the ‘safe routes,’ but do you know what they didn’t tell you?”
Protagonist: “What?”
Theriel: “Hidden within this dense forest are many of the Forest Elves’ precious supplies. If you’re willing to listen to me, I can lead you to those treasures. Rather than mindlessly following markers, why not have a real adventure? What do you say?”
Protagonist: “Forest Elf treasures? Why wouldn’t they just take them back themselves?”
Theriel: “Now that’s the interesting part, isn’t it? Either they can’t get in or taking them would cause them trouble. But you’re different, as travelers just passing through, no one’s going to stop you.”
Protagonist:
(Option 1) “If there really is treasure… it’s not out of the question.”
(Option 2) “It sounds nice, but we’d still rather stick to our own way.”
Theriel:
(Response to Option 1) “Hehe, a wise choice! Rest assured, you definitely won’t regret this.”
(Response to Option 2) “Sigh, how dull. I can’t believe you’re so stubbornly attached to the Forest Elves’ rigid, by-the-book ways.”
If the player chooses to follow Theriel, he will first lead the protagonist to find some treasures to gain their trust. Once the protagonist obtains the treasure, new dialogue is triggered
瑟瑞尔：“哼，看吧，跟我走可比照着那死板的向标前进收获大得多！”
主角：“森林精灵为什么会把这么珍贵的法杖遗落在这里？”
瑟瑞尔：“大概是因为这里曾经发生了一些……不太愉快的事情？又或者，他们觉得这里的东西拿了会有麻烦。谁知道呢？”
瑟瑞尔：“但不管怎么说我可没骗你吧。这片密林里像这样的地方还有不少，如果你们愿意我还可以带你们沿路发现更多宝藏。”
主角：
- “嗯，如果是这种品质的藏宝感觉确实值得稍微探索一番。”
- “就先这样吧，后续我们自己赶路就可以了。”
瑟瑞尔：
（选项一）
“嘿嘿，放心！前面的藏宝只会更有价值。”
（选项二）
“啧，真是太可惜了…”
Theriel: “Hmph, see? Following me yields much greater rewards than following those rigid markers!”
Protagonist: “Why would the Forest Elves leave such a precious staff abandoned here?”
Theriel: “Probably because something… unpleasant happened here once? Or perhaps they felt that taking these items would bring trouble. Who knows?”
Theriel: “But in any case, I didn’t lie to you, did I? There are plenty of places like this in this dense forest. If you’re willing, I can lead you to discover even more treasures along the way.”
Protagonist:
(Option 1) “Hmm, if the treasures are of this quality, it does feel worth exploring a bit more.”
(Option 2) “Let’s leave it at that for now; we can continue the rest of the journey on our own.”
Theriel:
(Response to Option 1) “Hehe, don’t you worry! The treasures ahead will only be more valuable.”
(Response to Option 2) “Tsk, what a shame…”
If the player chooses to follow Theriel from start to finish
在首次找到宝藏后玩家在后面跟随瑟瑞尔的途中还能再发现一些宝藏，但随着前进环境逐渐变得阴森凋零，远处隐约能看到一个巨大的石阵。
瑟瑞尔：“这里就是密林深处最隐秘的区域，连森林精灵都不敢轻易踏足……也是埋藏着真正遗物的地方。”
主角：“这里的气氛不太对劲……太过阴森了，我觉得还是算了吧，毕竟我还有更重要的任务。”
瑟瑞尔：“算了？那可不行，这里可不是想进就进想出就出的地方，如果没有专门的应对手段此地的封印可不是随意就能从内部打破的。”
主角：“！真有一道屏障阻挡在这里，所以你早就计划好把我们骗入这个陷阱中了？”
瑟瑞尔：“看你说的，怎么能叫骗呢。我这一路上也带你们找了不少宝贝，稍微帮我点小忙应该也不会太介意吧。”
瑟瑞尔：“放轻松，只需要击败封印中心的守护者屏障就会自己消失了，没有什么困难的。”
瑟瑞尔：“祝你们好运吧，希望你们不会像之前的旅者一样，最后只留下一滩白骨。”
主角：“该死的……”
After finding the first treasure, the player can discover several more treasures while following Theriel. However, as they advance, the environment gradually becomes grim and withered and a massive stone formation can be seen faintly in the distance.
Theriel: “This is the most secluded area in the heart of the forest, a place where even the Forest Elves fear to tread… it is also where the true relic is buried.”
Protagonist: “The atmosphere here is wrong… it’s far too eerie. I think we should call it off. After all, I still have a more important mission to complete.”
Theriel: “Call it off? That won’t do. This isn’t the kind of place you can just walk in and out of whenever you like. Without specific countermeasures, the seal here isn’t something that can be easily broken from the inside.”
Protagonist: “! There really is a barrier blocking us. So you planned this all along—luring us into this trap?”
Theriel: “Oh, listen to you. How can you call it ‘luring’? I’ve led you to plenty of treasures along the way. Surely you won’t mind helping me with a small favor in return.”
Theriel: “Relax. All you need to do is defeat the guardian at the center of the seal, and the barrier will vanish on its own. It’s nothing difficult.”
Theriel: “Good luck. I hope you won’t end up like the previous travelers, leaving behind nothing but a pile of bleached bones in the end.”
Protagonist: “Dammit…”
If the player chooses to stop following Theriel at any point
如果主角一行在中途放弃跟随瑟瑞尔逐步远离封印之地，在快要离开密林深处时指引盘和密林牌都会被瑟瑞尔偷走从而完全迷失方向。
主角会在行至特定区域后弹出提示有重要道具被偷窃。
瑟瑞尔：“哎呀，旅人们，看来你们遇到了一点小麻烦呢？”
主角：“瑟瑞尔！你做了什么？”
瑟瑞尔：“别激动，别激动，我只是帮你们暂时保管一下而已。毕竟，我怎么忍心看你们在这片密林里迷路呢？”
瑟瑞尔：“不过呢，如果你们想拿回这些东西，也不是不行……只要乖乖跟我来，我会带你们去一个有趣的地方。”
主角：“事已至此我们没有理由相信你了。”
瑟瑞尔：“哦？你们也可以选择不信啊，毕竟，没有指引盘，也没有密林牌……你们打算怎么走出去呢？”
瑟瑞尔：“失去方向说不定会在这片密林里绕上几天、几周……甚至，永远。”
主角：“……看来我们也没有选择了。”
瑟瑞尔：“聪明的旅人总是能认清现状。”
随后瑟瑞尔就会把主角一行带到封印之地，到达之后触发对话。
瑟瑞尔：“好了，这里就是我们的目的地，蔽光密林最深处的区域。”
主角：“这里的气氛不太对劲，你到底想让我们做什么？”
瑟瑞尔：“也不是什么难事啦。你们只需要消灭封印中心的守护者，我就会把你们的东西还给你们。”
瑟瑞尔：“祝你们好运吧，希望你们不会像之前的旅者一样，最后只留下一滩白骨。”
主角：“该死的……”
If the protagonist’s party decides to stop following Theriel and moves away from the Sealed Land, Theriel will steal both the Directional Compass and the Forest Token just as they are about to exit the deep forest, causing them to lose their way entirely.
Upon reaching a specific trigger area, a system prompt will appear notifying the player that important items have been stolen.
Theriel: “Oh dear travelers, it seems you’ve run into a bit of a predicament?”
Protagonist: “Theriel! What did you do?”
Theriel: “Calm, calm, don’t get all worked up. I’m just keeping them safe for you for a while. After all, how could I bear to see you get lost in this dense forest?”
Theriel: “But, if you want them back, it’s not out of the question… just follow me obediently, and I’ll take you somewhere interesting.”
Protagonist: “After everything that has happened, we have no reason to trust you.”
Theriel: “Oh? You could choose not to believe me. But after all, without your Directional Compass and your Forest Token… how exactly do you plan on walking out of here?”
Theriel: “Without a sense of direction, you might wander this forest for days, weeks… or perhaps, forever.”
Protagonist: “…It seems we have no other choice.”
Theriel: “Smart travelers always know when to face reality.”
Afterward, Theriel leads the party to the Sealed Land, triggering a new dialogue upon arrival.
Theriel: “Alright, here we are—our destination: the deepest reaches of the Shadow Cloaked Forest.”
Protagonist: “The atmosphere here is wrong. What exactly do you want us to do?”
Theriel: “It’s nothing too difficult. You just need to eliminate the guardian at the center of the seal, and I’ll return your belongings to you.”
Theriel: “Good luck! I hope you won’t end up like the previous travelers—leaving behind nothing but a pile of bleached bones in the end.”
Protagonist: “Dammit…”
Phase 3: The Sealed Land
当玩家来到密林最深处后会进入封印领域，由于封印的保护机制，所有进入该领域的生物都会被守护者攻击。（此时玩家可以逃离该领域但需要学习相应的技能才行）在击败守护者后，闪光精灵一族全部都会聚集于此，首领会站出来和主角对话。首先会就把主角骗到此地道歉，并说明事情原委。并希望主角能将幽辉之核归还予他们，闪光精灵会给予主角最丰厚的奖励。接下来主角可以有不同的选择来导向不同的任务结局。
Upon reaching the deepest part of the forest, the player enters the sealed realm. Due to the seal’s protective mechanism, any living being that enters this domain is automatically attacked by the guardian. (At this point, the player can attempt to flee the area, but only if they have learned the specific skills required to do so.) After the guardian is defeated, the entire Sparkle Elf race gathers at the site. Their leader steps forward to address the protagonist, beginning with an apology for the deception used to lure them here. The leader then explains the full story behind the situation and expresses their hope that the protagonist will return the Core of Ethereal Glow to them, promising the most generous rewards in return. From here, the player can make different choices that lead to various mission endings.
Phase 3 Dialogue
当主角击败封印守护者后，闪光精灵一族全部都会聚集于此。闪光精灵族的首领会告知玩家他们和森林精灵历代的恩怨，为何幽辉之核会被封印以及这个遗物对他们种族的重要性。首领希望主角可以将幽辉之核归还予他们，闪光精灵一族必会给予主角相应的奖赏。此时玩家可以做出选择要如何处理幽辉之核。
Once the protagonist defeats the seal guardian, the entire Sparkle Elf race assembles at the site. The leader of the Sparkle Elves informs the player of the historical grievances between their race and the Forest Elves, the reasons why the Core of Ethereal Glow was sealed, and the critical significance of this relic to their people’s survival. The leader expresses a hope that the protagonist will return the Core of Ethereal Glow to them, promising that the Sparkle Elves will grant the protagonist a commensurate reward. At this juncture, the player must decide how to deal with the Core of Ethereal Glow.
Claiming the Core of Ethereal Glow for Yourself
如果将幽辉之核占为己有闪光精灵一族会立刻对主角发起攻击，但主角可以利用幽辉之核的能力击退闪光精灵的猛烈攻势。
If the protagonist decides to keep the Core of Ethereal Glow for themselves, the Sparkle Elf race will immediately launch an attack. However, the protagonist can harness the power of the Core to repel the Sparkle Elves’ fierce onslaught.
Returning the Core of Ethereal Glow to the Sparkle Elf Race
闪光精灵会给予主角一行闪光精灵一族特有的稀有物品，该物品可以照亮任何的黑暗场景，同时还会让隐身的物体或生物显形。
The Sparkle Elves will grant the protagonist’s party a rare item unique to their race. This item can illuminate any dark environment and will also reveal invisible objects or creatures.
Seeking Forest Elf Help to Repel the Sparkle Elves
主角可以寻求森林精灵的帮助，森林精灵会帮助主角击退闪光精灵。此外森林精灵会再次封印幽辉之核，并给予玩家高品质奖励。
The protagonist can seek the assistance of the Forest Elves, who will help the party drive back the Sparkle Elves. Additionally, the Forest Elves will reseal the Core of Ethereal Glow once more and grant the player high-quality rewards.s
