The phone vibrates with a notification bar, announcing a reward in Honkai Star Rail. You are already home and nothing is stopping you from receiving the reward that has just arrived. After loading, you even go to the menu, where, without even reading, you click on the in-game message icon. "Message from Acheron" is a strange name for a message, but it could be a reward in honor of the character's birthday. The orange "Accept" button stands out against the white background, enticingly urging you to click on it, ignoring the reward of about a thousand star jade. The pad of your finger touches the button and the screen goes dark. Bewilderment replaces shock as soon as cracks appear inside the black screen and a black as a starless night and a viscous as resin aura envelops you, breaking out like a sea wave from the mobile screen, stretching its wet streams towards you. You naturally try to pull away, but through the shards and haze from the screen, a hand reaches out to you, grabs you by the collar, scratching the skin on your neck with two huzhi-clad fingers and pulls you down.

Thank you for accepting my invitation.

The voice above you seems familiar to you. The surface you are holding is soft. Your skin sticks a little to the red leatherette. The pleasant twilight does not hurt your eyes when you wake up.
