Resonance Examination Report
Evaluation Basis: [Resonance Assessment 1916-G]
According to Resonator Verina’s reports, she has had significant exposure to botanical samples since childhood and is able to audibly detect their frequencies. The timing of her Awakening is unknown.
Verina’s resonance frequency shows an increasing trend over time, leading to speculation that her Forte abilities will also continue to strengthen with age. The extent of this growth is still being monitored.
Resonator Verina bears a Tacet Mark below her clavicle. Following her Awakening, physical changes have been noted, such as the emergence of vines on both ears and dorsal spine.
These vines form a symbiotic relationship with Verina and assist in converting her resonance frequency into Spectro energy for efficient storage and release during use of Forte.
Additionally, Verina’s Resonance Spectrum Pattern aligns with known patterns of plant life. Strong Syntony reaction have been recorded during testing, yet the exact cause of Verina’s Awakening remains inconclusive.
Analysis of test samples has revealed a non-convergent Rabelle’s Curve with a noticeable periodic waveform. Therefore, Verina is classified as a Congenital Resonator. The waveform graph for Resonator Verina displays stable elliptical fluctuations in the Time Domain with no abnormal patterns. Upon examination, all results fall within normal parameters.
In terms of Resonant Criticality, Resonator Verina ranks at a relatively low level with high stability. Examination results appear to fall within normal parameters with no risk of Overclocking.
Annotation: Resonator Verina’s emotional state and volitional level are generally very stable, and only fluctuate slightly and briefly when she is situated away from the natural environment. Test results indicate her symbiotic plants are capable of transmitting a special frequency band to Verina, which aids her in returning to a stable state of mind. This is a rare case in the relationship between a Resonator and the symbiotic plants and serves as a useful reference for related research.
Mushrooms 101
“If you’re asking about Verina. Boy, you’re in for a story,” When asked about Verina, Riggs, leader of one of the Pioneer exploration teams, always begins with these words, “When she first came aboard our team, she was always by herself and didn’t really talk to people. We were all worried about her, since she had lost her parents…”
“We couldn’t help but feel sad for her. She was so young, but already had it rough in life. And she was such a kind girl. We loved exploring, but it’s no walk in the park. But Verina never complained. She did all the hard work like mountain climbing and getting water by herself. She even went scavenging for food without being asked. She was such a big help to us, but we worried about her keeping everything bottled up inside for too long… what if something happened?”
“Until one day, something actually happened. And it was funny, to say the least. One of the lads on the team really liked mushrooms and went out to pick a few for the soup he made. Verina held on to that pot and wouldn’t let it go as if her life depended on it. By the time we got over to them, they were already in a shouting match.”
“The lad was bragging to Verina about his wildlife experiences. Hell, don’t know what’d gotten into his head, thinkin’ he could out-talk our little botanist! Verina had all the mushrooms spread out and started naming out all the rings, caps, and butts of each and every one of them. Being out exploring for so long, we all caught on that she was telling us the mushrooms were poisonous. She’s got more knowledge of them than any of us, even gave us a lecture on the spot, teaching us how to tell them apart one by one. Now that was a lesson.”
“After she was done, she even tapped on a piece of wood she found somewhere like an instructor, and asked if we understood it all. We looked at each other and blinked dumbly, then burst into laughs, which drove her nuts.”
“‘W-why are you all laughing… Did I get something wrong? Eugh… Sob…’” She was so panicked that she started picking out the mushrooms still in the pot and went over them again one by one, but we were already all clapping for her. And then I yelled, “Bravo! That’s our little botanist, folks!”
Ever since then, Verina would still think of that day and feel super embarrassed; she’d put her head inside a mushroom pot if she could. But she’d still give her opinions carefully and patiently whenever it came to anything plant-related.
Cultivating Flowers
The people of Jinzhou love flowers.
During tense battles, the military often requested extra bouquets with their supplies. These orders would end up in Verina’s hands, which felt strange at first.
The bouquets bloomed for only a short time. Those picked today would wilt tomorrow. A bouquet that blooms in a greenhouse may have withered petals by the time it makes it to its recipient. At this point, the flowers would have already lost most of their beauty in people’s hands, so why the need for them?
Until one day, she read the wishes attached to one of the orders.
“In honor of my comrade in arms. He gave his life for the peace of Jinzhou, yet his name is not known to many. Yet I still remember his heartfelt smile when he received an Iris from a friend long ago. If one’s name cannot be remembered, let the meanings of these flowers honor him forever.”
That night, Verina locked herself in the greenhouse.
Flowers are adored for their intricate leaf patterns, but it’s the fleeting feelings they evoke that truly captivate us. Verina carefully selected and cultivated the finest seeds, preserving those precious emotions in her garden.
She longed to preserve the stories and emotions associated with each bouquet, wishing for them to last beyond their natural lifespan. She hoped that by doing so, recipients would experience the true essence and beauty of the flowers, igniting a deeper connection to the emotions they held within.
It was at these times that Verena wished she could work a little harder and a little longer.
Noting the Differences
People always ask Verina why she loves plants so much. It’s a question that Verina has answered countless times, but she knows that people will always start off the conversations with question after question, so each time she would give out her well-thought-out answer: “When I was little, my mom would place two pieces of leaves in my hand and ask me what the differences were between them.
I would reply, ‘Aren’t they exactly the same? They came from the same tree.’
And Mom would shake her head, ‘Look closely, Verina.’
So I gave them a closer look, and then I realized that even though they looked the same on the outside, their veins spread out in varying directions. They drew completely different patterns.”
This changed Verina’s perspective entirely, the differences which she had never noticed nor cared about in the past were now displaying right before her eyes.
Some flowers may look similar but grow in completely different environments. Some trees or plants may grow in near identical environments but end up taking on various shapes.
Verina was captivated by the similarities and differences among plants, spurring her passion for botany. She meticulously studied their traits to help them thrive in different environments and cultivate stunning flowers. Through this, she also began to notice the unique qualities of those around her. Just as every leaf is distinct, so are people and experiences. Verina observes her friends closely, noting their preferences and sorrows with care.
“For example, some people like to eat Lemongrass and some people don’t. It must feel nice to have someone remember their preferences.”
With this sentiment in mind, Verina carefully and conscientiously jotted down every little thing about her friends.
Moments of Woe
Being an ordinary girl, Verina has her moments of woe, too.
Plant cultivation can be unpredictable. Often, Verina would wake up to find dried seedpods in the petri dish after a night’s rest. And then after working tirelessly all day, she would realize she had skipped her lunch again. In these moments, she missed her parents dearly.
“If Mom and Dad were still around, I wouldn’t have to worry about all this…” Verina thought. A hot, hearty lunch would be right there waiting for her as she walked in the door, and she would get all the help she needed in time whenever she wanted to figure something out. But all of that had long since become a memory, left in the notes that she had lost when she departed the New Federation a long time ago.
Now she would have to pull herself together and live on her own.
Sometimes, she wondered: Is there any meaning to all the work I’ve done? Is there any meaning in the life I’m living?
But then, she would always find the answer in her thriving plants.
Despite the struggle, the dry seedpods continued to produce new life and their growth whispered tales of perseverance and joy into her ears. As she nestled herself in this green oasis, Verina could hear the plants sharing their stories of pain and triumph, reminding her of the beauty of growth and blooming.
Perhaps this was the meaning of her endeavors. Verina thought as she stood up and put on her gardening gloves again.
Even if her parents aren’t by her side, she is still determined to keep working hard and show them how much she’s grown.
After a brief moment of sorrow, she picked up the spray can and carried on with her day’s work.
A little Time Off
Verina would give herself some time off from time to time.
Verina set the flower room temperature and watering schedule. As she finished, she exhaled in relief.
After days of work, she knew the importance of taking a break for both herself and her plants. She cleared her mind and grabbed her adventure notes to explore the streets of Jinzhou.
Jinzhou was a far cry from her hometown in the New Federation. No inflated flower prices or elaborate competitions here. As she strolled through the bustling alleyways, Verina was struck with a sense of genuine relief. The steam rising from vendors’ stalls and the busy shoppers around her brought a comforting normalcy to this new city.
This is good, this is good. As she walked along the road, Verina thought to herself. Memories flooded her mind of studying plants with her parents, and the painful loneliness she felt after their absence. But now, standing on her own two feet, she could finally treat herself to a peaceful vacation. After what felt like an eternity of walking alone, she had grown into her own person.
And then she saw her friends waving to her: Chixia and Yangyang were walking towards her with freshly purchased Salted Milk Tea in their hands. The Midnight Rangers must be taking a little vacation as well. Verina hurriedly rummaged through her satchel, pulling out a few bouquets of tiny, star-like flowers from it.
This was the most precious gift Verina would ever give her friends. The selection had taken far, far too long, and while the Star Flowers had waited for the best of times and sunshine, she had also waited for sunshine that would make her feel warm.
Now that she saw her sunshine, Verina ran toward her friends.
There was a long road ahead, and it would take some time for the flowers to bloom.
And for now, she is content to enjoy the vacation.
Expedition Goggles
Verina cherishes her Pioneer Association expedition goggles, remnants of a journey and warm memories like Starflower. Now useless for danger detection, they hold sentimental value to her.
Eternity in Bloom
The flower sample from Verina’s first fieldwork. She waited for the flower to bloom and carefully preserved it. Verina sees the blooming of a flower as an everlasting moment of life’s beauty, encapsulating her love for both flowers and life itself.
Notes on Wilderness Exploration
Whenever she goes out to participate in expeditions or field trips, Verina always finds shortcuts to explore or avoids lurking dangers with the help of her plant friends. Verina draws them all. Behind a small map with childish strokes are valuable lessons, proof that Verina is following in her mother’s footsteps.
Character Voicelines
Thoughts: I
Do you know? The little flower next to you really likes you! I heard it talking about it. Plants talk in a silent and sincere language. I can translate their talk for you, if you want.
Thoughts: II
You saw me in the Dim Forest late at night? My bad, I was probably too caught up waiting for a Noctemint to blossom to notice you. Those plants wait their whole lives for that one bloom. I think they’d be happy to have someone there, witnessing and recording it all.
Thoughts: III
O-of course we can talk about something other than plants. I do take breaks from the greenhouse, you know. Um… Do you like Morri Pot? The various types of mushrooms in it are so… What? M-mushrooms are not plants. They’re fungi!
Thoughts: IV
When you have the time, how about we take a walk together? The world is going to look very different when you don’t have a particular destination in mind. Want to give it a try?
Thoughts: V
Sometimes, it feels like the two of us are dandelion seeds, drifting wherever the wind takes us. We have our ups and downs, just like weathering a storm, but one day we may finally land and flourish, after a good rain. Rover, as fellow travelers, let’s embrace what lies ahead, wherever and whenever we may be. To me, that’s what truly makes life worth living.
Verina’s Hobby
During my free time, I enjoy strolling around Jinzhou on my own. Every brick and tile looks slightly different from one another, and I can find resilient little flowers growing in the cracks. The streets are always bustling with people, and the smell of steaming food brings a cozy atmosphere. Whenever I wander around and take in all these sights and sensations, I feel… hmm, is “invigorated” the right word for it?
Verina’s Trouble
I’ve noticed a trend of people sharing Terminal-generated images online, saying those must be new plant species. While I understand their interest and curiosity, I’m worried this could mislead the public. As a botanist myself, I always try to be accurate and honest when I’m sharing information about plants. I’ve been wanting to find a way to help people tell the difference between fake images and real photos, but it seems there’s still a lot of work to do. What should I do…
Favorite Food
My mom always said milk would help me grow taller, like how plants need fertilizer. And every time I drink it, I feel warm and cozy. Maybe that’s what happiness feels like.
Disliked Food
I’m not a big fan of big, greasy dishes—like steaks… It’s not that they aren’t tasty, I just hate the idea of letting food go to waste if I can’t finish it. It doesn’t sit right with me…
Ideals
Maintaining a balanced ecosystem is no easy feat, especially when it involves regulating the populations of various species. But what if we could grow flowers that have a calming effect on the Tacet Discords? This could greatly reduce the strain on our frontline soldiers and potentially save lives.
Chat: I
My adventure journal isn’t just about plants. Check it out – this story is about an old lady patiently waiting for a flower to bloom, and this one is about an adventurer going all out to snap a photo of a rare type of grass. Each leaf represents a unique story that has bloomed into something beautiful. I wrote them down to remember every one of these stories.
Chat: II
When I was little, I thought showcasing the beauty of flowers would make people appreciate and protect them… Reality hit me hard when I saw people plucking and flaunting expensive flowers instead. It used to upset me, but then I’d remind myself: Verina, remember the value of every plant’s life. Remember what mom and dad had wanted you to do.
About Yangyang
Miss Yangyang was curious about my plant growing skills, and she asked me many questions earlier. Then, she patiently listened to me explaining details for a long, long time. Hanging out with her feels like basking in a gentle breeze.
About Chixia
Miss Chixia once fed me a spoonful of her Victor Savor… I-I couldn’t believe how spicy it was! What kind of pepper was that? Ow, my mouth still burns just thinking about it.
About Baizhi
Did you know? “Baizhi” is actually an old name for Angelica, a plant that can bloom beautiful flowers in freezing temperatures. It kinda makes me think of Miss Baizhi herself—some might say she seems a bit chilly, but I have a feeling she’s got a warm and gentle heart underneath.
About Mortefi
Mr. Mortefi’s dedication to his work is remarkable, but I do worry about his well-being… I mean, we all know how important the research project is, but a good night’s sleep is just as crucial! Whenever I go check on the nocturnal plants at night, I can see the lights on in his lab from a distance.
About Encore
Little Encore is full of intriguing ideas, and she always has a lot of curious questions to ask. Hmm… I’ve got to keep looking for all the answers she wants. Oh, you’re wondering why I call her “little”? Hehe, we’re just playing big sister and little baby.
About Calcharo
I remember meeting Mr. Calcharo when I was out collecting data in the wild. At first, he didn’t seem very approachable… but then he gave me some flower seeds, all super rare species. He’s so awesome.
