Honkai: Star Rail

March 7th makes the Astral Express feel like a found family

March 7th turns a crew of travelers into something warmer than a transportation service. Her bright camera, chosen name, and curiosity about a lost past make the Astral Express feel like a home being assembled one shared moment at a time.

Dan Heng's reserve makes room for the Trailblazer's questions

Dan Heng’s quiet presence on the Astral Express can seem like a refusal to engage. In the early journey, though, his archive work and measured responses make him a steady guide: someone who gives the Trailblazer room to ask without turning every answer into a performance.
