    • 1 capital in Inner Huanglong (unsure if 1 of 5 cities, or city of its own for a total 6 inner cities) (?)
• “A celestial being descended, commanding the Qiankun (universe) boundless power. Assuming Mortal form, they condensed the primordial essence, creating Pangu. Cleaving heaven and earth apart, they aligned the celestial and terrestrial.. Their radiance encompasses the four corners. Thus began the illustrial annals of Huanglong, as provinces were first demarcated." - Yangyang
• Central Secretariat (?) - Governing body within a city of Inner Huanglong (Capital?)
  • Changli held a high position here.

New Federation

• Other region/country outside Huanglong. Members include characters with non-Chinese names (Mortefi, Verina, Camellya (?), Aalto, Encore, Calcharo, etc.)

Gorges of Spirits (Battle of Gorges of Spirits)

• The place where Rover enters Solaris (where we begin the game, see that statue of Jue)

Battle Beneath the Crescent (Norfall Barrens)

• Three years before Rover's awakening in Solaris, Jinzhou had its first encounter with the Threnodian Ovathrax and Threnodian enhanced Retroact Rain, under previous General of the Midnight Rangers, Geshu Lin. Despite overwhelming losses, Geshu Lin commanded troops to stand firm, before launching a reckless assault on the Threnodian and disappearing. Jiyan, a former combat medic, awakens his resonance and rallies a retreat of remaining forces. He is personally appointed by Jue as Jinzhou's General afterwards. (?)
  • “Humanity’s first recorded encounter with Retroact Rain enhanced by Threnodian Power” - Aalto
  • "In that battle three years ago, our soldiers got into a gruesome fight against countless Tacet Discords, either native to Norfall Barrens, or produced by the Retroact Rain….and endless swarms of phantoms. ‘Phantoms’ of Tacet Discords and our fallen soldiers repeated their indiscriminate attacks on everything in their sight. Soldiers could not tell friends from foe. The relentless rain even recreated the rural deaths of their comrades, etched in vivid detail" - Taoqi

• “A Sentinel (Oracle Engine) such as Jue can predict and ‘correct’ future events. It gets in our way of achieving our sublime vision“ - Scar, Grand Library

Suan’ni - What Lingyang is/ his race/ his community.

• "Beasts with resonance abilities, more feral than human resonators....Over time most of them died out, driven extinct by their unrestrained desires.. Beasts that can bring their power under control are extremely rare, but… they do exist."
• “Suan’nis lived a tranquil life in deep forests, far away from humans.”
• “Humans suffered greatly against the Suan’nis, with their terrifying appearance, powerful Resonance Abilities, and wild animal instincts…and that’s why the Suan’nis were deemed evil. The Suan’nis have nearly gone extinct over the years. And now, there might be only one of the remaining.”

• “Jinzhou is the gateway to Huanglong, and the Desorock Highland is the gateway to Jinzhou. A single breach could have dire consequences.” - Rearguard Battalion Camp Officer
• “Jinzhou is a border city with an unbreakable will and strong spirit of resistance. However, we also fear the constant wars and loss of life, and the Threnodian can prey on that.”- Jinhsi

Jue (Sentinel of Jinzhou)

• "Jue is the Guardian Sentinel of Jinzhou. It is responsible for assisting Jinzhou’s Magistrate in administrative affairs. While I am the final decision maker…Without the assistance of Jue, I cannot guarantee I’m always making the best choices for my people.” - Jinhsi
• “Jue can predict the future, and up to this point, every one of its prophecies have been proven true. While justice may not be universally agreed upon, its decisions have consistently served the best interests of Huanglong.**" - Jinhsi

• "Built when Jinzhou was first established. It’s a popular landmark for locals giving directions.” - Yangyang
• Where Magistrate and her attendants live, and where people can apply for an audience (most get turned down) - Yangyang

Grand Library (within City hall)

• “Renowned for their vast databases, holding valuable information about the regions they represent. Their exact locations are kept confidential, but is is believed they hold answers to all questions one could ask. The Grand Libraries are vital for Huanglong’s data security, managed by the regional Sentinels, accessible only to the Magistrates. They are rarely open to the public.“ - Yangyang
• “Kinda like a piggy bank inside the City hall. Data Wise” - Chixia

Liondance

• "Started as a way to cheer up returning soldiers and boost their morale before battles. It evolved over time into a way to boost soldiers’ spirits before battle, symbolizing courage and the hope for victory. Later on, it transformed into the festive performance we see today, but it’s still about keeping bad luck away, dispelling fear, and passing prosperity and protection to future generations.” - Lingyang
• “As the liondance evolved, it picked up various new styles and elements, which hold unique significance to each person.” - Lingyang

Riverside Games

  • "Defense system against the Retroact Rain. It does a good job of keeping the city safe from the rain’s effects. Once the protective barrier breaks down, Tacet Discords could manifest from inside Jinzhou City.” - Taoqi

Resonance Beacon

• The smaller ones - "Data is shared between all Beacons. You activate one, and the entire map’s data will be relayed to your terminal. " - Chixia

Pangu Terminal (gourd)

Exiles

• Homeless/lawless nomads, mix of resonators and non-resonators.

Waveworn Phenomena

Waveworn Phenomena

• "believed to alter matter, information, and energy by converting them into vibrating 'frequencies' referred to as “reverberations.” This process has been observed through experimental evidence in the academic community. - Loading Screen text.
• The Lament’s power causes destructive waves across the land of Solaris. Manifestations like the “Tacet Fields,” “Tacet Discord Outbreaks.” And the enigmatic “Tacetite” are part of what is collectively known as the “Waveworn Phenomena.” - Yangyang
• “The anomalies that occurred after the Lament, including the formation of Tacet Fields, Etheric Sea, Retroact Rain*, and gravity loss…” - Yangyang

"The Lament"

• "Refers to ongoing catastrophic events on Solaris-3. Since the onset of the first Lament, the cycle of destruction has persisted relentlessly. The tide of devastation remains ceaseless, with no signs of relenting." - Loading Screen text
• "The Lament caused a global technological regression and shortage of resources.” - Rearguard Camp Battalion Officer
• “What is the Lament? Disaster? Some kind of punishment? Ha! People only see the surface… The Lament brings death, destruction, and countless Reverberations. Reverberations that will be reflected, overlapped, and interwoven during the Lament…They will be our salvation, the only path to a new lifeforms and a new civilization.” Scar, Grand Library
• “The Threnodian, abnormal “moon” sightings, and the Retroact Rain may be linked. TD Outbreaks are another sign.“ - Aalto

Reverberations (Lingering Frequencies)

• "Everything in our world is made up of frequencies, and every sound generates a reverberation” - Yangyang
• "Something truly awful must have happened here…and the victims’ Reverberations still linger.” - Yangyang, at Qichi Village.

Remnant

• "In their studies of Waveworn Phenomena, scientists discovered “Tacetite” - a substance that can Permanently hold Remnant energy. The Tacetite can be made into potent weapons for Resonators to combat Tacet Discords. Transdimensional spaces where Remnant Energy is abundant are known as the Sonoro Spheres" - Loading screen text.
• "Remnant Energy sometimes gives rise to memory manifestations of sentient beings." - Baizhi
• The Blake Bloom flower is a Remnant plant - loaded with resonance energy due to being at the site of waveworn phenomena.

Retroact Rain

• "A form of condensed Remnant Energy from the Etheric Sea. Various events across space and time frame every dimension are recorded in the form of Remnant Energy. The Retroact Rain conjures illusions of past events for those exposed to it. Before the Retroact Rain forms, it goes through three stages.” - Aalto, CoS.
  • First stage: looks just like any regular rain.
  • Second stage: water droplets floating in midair, being absolutely still.
  • Third Stage: rain flows upwards.
• “The Retroact Rain should have been a harmless Waveworn Phenomenon. However, The Threnodian’s influence enhanced its effect, turning that battle into brutal slaughter.” - Jiyan, Camp Overwatch.
• "This Remnant Energy makes it a magnet for Tacet Discords. It records events from all times and places, allowing those who come into contact with it to witness illusions of past events. That’s what we call the Phantoms of Retroact Rain” - Aalto.
• "When it’s raining across a large area, illusions pulled from the memories of multiple people can manifest at once...Once the Retroact Rain reaches its final stage, there will be thousands of phantoms…Phantoms of dead soldiers and Tacet Discords.” Taoqi/Aalto.
• Retroact Rain antidote: The midnight Rangers and Jinzhou use an antidote developed by the Academy. “The antidote cannot shield you from its effects entirely, it should at least lessen the hallucinations.” - Jiyan.

Phantoms

• Hallucinations of past memories in areas of Retroact Rain. “It kind of works like how Resonators 'Resonate' with the world. The more you’re exposed to the rain, the more realistic those phantoms become.” - Aalto
• “The phantoms should only mechanically repeat what they had been doing. They shouldn’t have the ability to interfere with reality. But the Retroact Rain can be significantly enhanced through the Threnodian’s power...said phantoms become increasingly realistic to the point of inflicting real harm on humans.” - Taoqi
• “For someone to show up as a ‘phantom’ in the Retroact Rain, two conditions must be met: Prior exposure to the rain, and a deep connection to the affected area.” - Jiyan

Void Plenilune (?) - (full) moon, that marks/foreshadows the awakening of a Threnodian (or specifically, Threnodian Ovathrax)

Echo

• "Tacet Discords may leave behind 'Reverberations' when they are eliminated, which can then be transformed into 'Echoes' through the Pangu Terminal’s Data Bank, providing a useful advantage in battle." - Yangyang
• “Those 'echoes' are the lingering Reverberations of Tacet Discords after they disintegrate. We can absorb them into the Data banks in our Pangu Terminals."- Yangyang

Streams (?)

• Presumably wind currents, utilized by Yangyang and Jiyan (and other aero users?). Seems akin to premonition.
• “The air is heavy in that place, without any wind to speak of, but I could still feel so many emotions and desperate cries for help…” - Yangyang

Sonoro Spheres

• "Captures everything that once happened in a specific time and place, be it good or bad." - Baizhi
• “Made up of Remnant frequencies. Simply put, it’s an illusion made of memories. Scholars would call it a Sonoro Sphere.” - Jiyan, companion quest
• Simulated Training Grounds - Artificially created based on the structure of Sonoro Spheres, to extract pure Remnant Energy (may contain abnormal frequencies) - Baizhi

Etheric Sea (?)

• interferes with (communication) signals. - Chixia
• a sky of inverted seas over Tacet Fields. (? from description of Tacet Fields)

Resonators

• "Individuals with the ability to resonate with certain objects and manipulate their frequencies are known as “resonators.” These individuals exhibit unique “Resonance Abilities, also known as their “Fortes,” through the “Tacet Mark” on their bodies. According to experts, a Resonator’s abilities are often influenced by their past experiences and subconscious mind." - Loading Screen text.
• Tacet Mark - point of expression for Resonance Ability/Forte; physical mark on resonator's body.
• Forte - interchangeably used with Resonance Ability.
  • “My wounds can close on their own. It’s my Resonance ability.” - Suihe, injured soldier

Overclocking

Tacet Discord

Tacet Discord

• "Created by the Waveworn Phenomena, are dangerous entities with ever-changing, amorphous forms. They possess “Tacet Cores” and feed on other frequencies to maintain stability and evolve. These creatures mimic their prey’s abilities, shapes, and behaviours, influenced by the types of frequency they consume." - Loading screen text
• “Tacet Discords attack other living beings, because they need to feed on those frequencies to make themselves whole again. When frequencies are scattered and recombined, a new Tacet Discord is born.” - Yangyang
• “This one probably devoured the frequencies of …humans. Turning the last bits of a human’s consciousness into such monotonous mumbles…Are these words the last cries off someone innocent? Who is behind this twisted plot?" - Yangyang, Qichi village
• Tacet Discord outbreaks are the spawning of a concentration of Tacet Discords. Can come in waves.
• “Tacet Discords are similar to animals…they’re very sensitive to any change in the frequencies in their surroundings.” - Mortefi, Jiyan companion quest.
• “The Tacet Discords devoured our fallen soldiers’ frequencies to gain their memories…they became convinced they were the soldiers they feasted upon.” - Jiyan, Companion quest.

Tacet Field

• "Thought to be where all Tacet Discords *originate. These locations feature a sky of inverted seas (*Etheric Sea?) and a deep cross-shaped Tacet Mark on the ground. Reverberations fill the air, linking our world to an unknown space through a white Resonance Cord (?). These areas attract gatherings of Tacet Discords.**" - Loading Screen text.
• "Etheric Sea converging is a sign of Tacet fields taking shape" - Yangyang.
• “Freshly formed Tacet Fields have a Dormant Period. During this time, it is relatively safe. The Dormant period of a Tacet Field varies based on its formation time. Generally, the shorter the formation time, the longer the Dormant Period. However, with a longer Dormant period, the Tacet Discords born within are usually stronger. The faster a Tacet Field forms, the longer its Dormant period. For now, this Tacet Field should be safe." - Yangyang, before Crownless fight in beginning
• On Suan’ni territory - “When the Tacet Fields expanded rapidly, their territories were not spared” - Lingyang, companion quest.

Tacetite / Tacetite Weapons

• "While Tacetite Weapons were being developed, most people had limited knowledge of Tacetite as an energy source. As a result, primitive products combining old and new technology emerged. The hand grenade was one of them. With the rapid growth of Tacetite Weapons, these crude explosives were eventually phased out in favour of more advanced weaponry” - Rearguard Battalion Camp Officer
• “Prolonged exposure to tacetite energy posed health risks” - Jiyan, Camp Overwatch

Threnodian

• "Formidable creatures born from the Lament**s,with the power to destroy human spirit and feed off of their collapsed will. If civilizations represent mankind’s collective will, the Threnodians embody our fears and struggles. They manifest as destructive Tacet Discord disasters spreading across our planet." - Loading screen text
• “The Threnodian is the most powerful Tacet Discord. The Battle of the Threnodian that happened before was to fend it off.” Yangyang
  • (?) Odd Yangyang doesn't call it the Battle Beneath the Crescent here...
• “The Threnodians…They hold the key to our ideal. Together, they will bring us the promised ‘True Lament’, and we will embrace thew world that is bound to come.” - Scar
• “A Threnodian’s revival is never an independent occurrence. They can sense one another through some form of telepathic link. The revival of a Threnodian in Jinzhou will trigger catatstrophic events and affect other nations” - Aalto
• Threnodians can resurrect Overlord Class Tacet Discords, but seem tied to one Calamity Class representative manifestation. (?) “The Crownless… The Threnodian has reconstructed its frequencies.” - Jiyan, Suspended ruins

Ovathrax

• "Dreadful Threnodian Monster, fed on the frequencies of “weapons” turning our fallen soldiers into deadly Tacet Discords" - Yangyang
• Suspended Ruins: "Ovathrax’s towering statue, built from repurposed weapon and debris, has long loomed over Jinzhou as a foreboding sumbol of our ongoing struggle.” - Jiyan
• *Important note, Ovathrax is the eye sphere looking thing, not Dreamless (Calamity Class Discord) linked to the awakening of a Threnodian. (?)

Crownless (Overlord Class TD)

• "Tacet Discord that embodies war itself. The hatred of the fallen warriors and the fear of the survivors are the ingredients for it. In the limited information available, some researchers have speculated its connection with the Threnodian.**" - Yangyang
• "Resentment of the fallen, fright of the ignoble…Those are the emotions that laid grounds for its birth. The Crownless is a Tacet Discord that possesses powers from the reviving Threnodian.” - Jinhsi

Thundering Mephis (Overlord Class TD) (Withering Frontline)

• "Blend of countless fallen soldiers’ Reverberations. As long as more soldiers are still dying here, it will always return.“* - Jiyan

• "Developed a Special Lament Prediction system, and has established partnerships with countries worldwide. While operating in Secrecy, they are not an extremist group like the Fractsidus. They have been monitoring the situation in Jinzhou to provide assistance where needed." - Jinhsi
• “They presumably process extraordinary abilities to stay anonymous” - Jinhsi
• “We’ve set up Resonance Beacons worldwide to monitor the lament, collecting data in real-time. This is how we predict when the next Lament is happening.” - Aalto, Whining Aix Mire.
• “The Island our headquarters are built on is in fact a massive piece of Tacetite ore, which powers our various energy-intensive operations. Our island is located in the perfect spot to accurately monitor the Lament, ensuring precise predictions.”
• “All we can do for now is to observe the Lament, study its patterns, and provide early warnings to countries worldwide”
• “The Black Shores members all work together to save the world from the Lament crisis. We’ve got talents from all walks of life, including skilled hackers, explosive experts, and even Fengshui masters…This is the not the first time you’ve been reawakened. Last time…you woke up at the Black Shores.” - Aalto
• Our ‘Garden' (The Black Shores) is home to many green fruits, and we’ll make you the most special “seed” among them all…" - Camellya
• Seed of Fate - What Camellya calls Rover.

  • Artificers - lower-ranked members. Above the Artificers are the
  • Overseers, leaders with eerie abilities and unknown intentions. They pose a far bigger threat… No one knows their true intentions. Some members speak of world destruction, while others claim they seek eternal power.” Yangyang, Qichi village
• “Those wackos are hellbent on making their own resonators. Said there’s no right or wrong when it comes to Resonance powers and everyone should have a right to them.” Chixia
• “They use mechanical manipulation to integrate parts of Tacet Discords into Human bodies.” yangyang
• "The Fractsidus is accelerating the Threnodian’s revival.” - Jinhsi
• “We merely wanted to topple the set future built on lies, and take control of our own destiny.” - Scar

Court of Savantae (CoS)

Court of Savantae

• "Mysterious scientific research organization. They are best known for their research in “Automata mechanics, but what really put them on the map isn’t that; it’s all the bizarre experiments they did.” - Aalto
