Throughout the game, this non-playable character (NPC) triggered several red flags, most notably in the White Knight music video published before the 2.0 update.
The song video showed her falling from a high height, implying her death.
A short scene shows her dissolving to dust near Caelus, the male Trailblazer, hinting at her destiny in the story.
Furthermore, her name, Firefly, refers to an insect noted for its brief lifetime.
Is Firefly Dead?
Firefly makes an appearance in Honkai Star Rail 2.0 as a major figure who claims to be a Penacony native. She takes gamers on a journey to the planet’s center.
The two of you enjoy brief periods in the dream world, doing things like playing slot machines and finding Penacony’s hidden gems.
However, disaster comes at the end of the first Trailblaze Mission when Firefly is mortally stabbed by Memory Zone Meme “Something Unto Death,” resulting in her abrupt disappearance and assumed death.
This leaves players wondering if Firefly is dead.
We discover, as hinted by the exchange with Acheron and Black Swan, that dying in the Dreamscape is no different than dying in real life.
