✨🌹 Design Concept 🌹✨

The stars are shining brightly, and the sweet blossoms are dancing in the moonlight,

The clouds tasted a touch of sweetness, and a playful and lively color lit up the Rainbow Bridge.

The starlight is misty and blurred, and the blossoming sweetness ripples at the end of the rainbow,

Above the lights in the world, the girl is spinning and dancing, and the stars will never fade away.

The starlight reappeared brightly, Dodora sweetly hid in the stars and looked at the earth,

Like clusters of small bright lights, guarding and illuminating everyone with dreams.

✨🌹 Design Hilight 🌹✨

The galaxy pours down on the skirt, with endless dreams,

Roses bloom under the stars, infusing you with sweet super energy.

Hope everyone had fun at the anniversary livestream! For those who missed it, here's the highlights:

To start the countdown, they played this gorgeous animation for 10 minutes:

Then, we meet our two hosts - each wearing a different design from Ashley/Lilith! One wears the workshop dress from Meteoric Feather, and the other wears the SSR gacha dress from Bunny Moon. Makes you wish they sold the Nikki clothes everywhere.

We also get to hear the voices behind Nikki and Momo! Emma Ballantine voices Nikki, and Emma Tate voices Momo. (Yes, they're both named Emma. The live chat was joking about that.)

The first raffle code was DREAMLAND. How fitting for the upcoming hell event, right?

And then, we get a commercial from Momo. No, really, he advertises the ketchup chips that Nikki loves to eat in Home.

Following up, we get two beautiful pieces of animation. If you've been on YouTube the past couple of days, these should be familiar :)

The pop-up adventure of Nikki and Momo:

The illustrated anniversary trailer:

And then, an extra special treat... Paper Games teamed up with cosplayer Sarah Spaceman to make a real version of the silver Ad Lunam suit!

Complete with the dress, hosiery, wig, and the horn piece!

Our second raffle code was NIKKIDRESS. But they also surprised the audience with a redeem code for within the game itself: SURPRISEBONUS. This gives you:

-3000 pink gems

-1000 stamina

-3,000,000 gold

-30 Fantasy Tickets

-20 Five-Color Mirror (the hell event currency)

-12 UR Concept Shards

-120 SSR Concept Shards

-220 SR Memory Keys

-610 R Memory Keys

-100 Memory Track

We next get to meet Lama Hourani, a Jordanian-Spanish jewelry artist that teamed up with Paper Games to create a piece of jewelry inspired by Nikki. The end result?

Breathtaking!

Afterward, we had one more raffle code: NEVERSAYGOODBYE. And of course, one more gift from the team. The redeem code LIVEGIVEBACK will give players:

-600 pink gems

-800 stamina

-6,000,000 gold

-40 Fantasy Tickets

-600 Fixed R Key

-200 Fixed SR Key

-100 Refresh cards

To close out the livestream, we got a brand-new song from Nikki. The song hasn't released by itself yet, but we did get one more bonus: a comic book-style Momo adventure!

4th Anniversary Shining Nikki Game 2023

The vengeful prince came from the thorns and the abyss,

Mercury saw all the stars die,

The nightmare enveloped the world, and everything was wiped out.

Reincarnation ushered in extinction, unyielding and resistance quietly condensed.

If all is doomed to perish, then Mercury shall pick up the lost authority,

Begins his reign in the last days.

The godslayer uses the edge of his sword as a pen to write down the verdict of destruction,

The gods fell in the twilight sea, recording the end of the end,

A new chapter will begin in Mercury's story.

Mercury: Misty Breaths

Designer's Reflection: Misty Breaths

Obtained: top-up for Tides and Flames event

Rarity: SSR

Attribute: Gold/Elegant

Awakened Suit: Dark Contracts

Story - transcripts from Designer's Reflection

Chapter 1 - Beneath the Ice

Chapter 2 - Spirit in the Lake

Chapter 3 - Forgotten Sagas

Chapter 4 - Black Tide Rising

Story - summarized

Mercury and his group finally found the Altar of Arionus, located at the bottom of Lake Bovaly. With the assistance of the Water Elf King's gem, he followed the path into the lake and down a dark passage.

And there, still preserved after all this time, was the stone altar. A misty wraith guarded it, emitting shrieks and screams. But Mercury was not deterred. Instead, he approached the spirit and declared himself a friend of the Water Elves.

The dark mist revealed itself to be Flo, one of the earliest and most devout followers of Arionus. He was there to witness the scorn of the other Elf Gods, as well as how Hephaes led to his great god's demise. Indignant and vindictive, Flo would do anything to restore the great God of Water.

Mercury announced that he had a plan to awaken the long-lost god, but he needed help revitalizing the New Moon gem. Flo readily agreed, and the last of his ghost faded into vapor as he transferred power into the gem.

Now, Mercury could uphold his end of the deal struck with the Water Elf King: he would awaken Arionus, break the oath binding the Water Elves to the deep sea, and assist in the downfall of Pigeon Kingdom and the Light Elves.

But he wouldn't do this for altruism. All he wanted was a glimpse of the power of the Abyss, and he needed Arionus back to do that.

Connections

-Mercury made a deal with the Water Elf King in Startide Dream. Now, he's fulfilling that deal by triggering the events of the Tides and Flames hell event.

-While Mercury craves the power of the Abyss, he still knew the risk of the Goddess of Desire's presence in Miraland and worked alongside the rest of the Shining Nikki cast during the Angel and Demon hell event. He provided resources to the other three factions.

-Flo has met Hephaes, but in Arionus' Reflection for Lost Tides, Flo didn't trust Hephaes one bit, and the moment the other Elf Gods ambushed Arionus, Flo was quick to pin the blame on Hephaes as a betrayal.

-This is not the first time Mercury wasn't the narrator of his own story: the first half of Startide Dream, the full story for Nightmist Aria, Daybreak Overture, Snow Song, and Reminiscence of Flower (to name a few) either feature another character narrating the story or none at all.

Fun Facts

-Even though we've seen Mercury make the deal with the Water Elf King before, this is the first time a mark or emblem has been mentioned.

-This Reflection is a prologue to the hell event, even to the Moon Memories.

-It's never clear if the New Moon gem is the same blue gem the Water Elf King gave to Mercury the day the young boy left the Pigeon palace. But it fits the description.

-While Mercury knows that gods exist, he doesn't worship any and sees them merely as pawns, like the mortals he meets.
