Going to try add stuff that isn't accessible on the current Wiki since I'm actively playing the game...

!! Be mindful of the content warnings: It's the DrakeNieR series and one of the taglines for Rein's setting is "The Cage where sin sleeps," so expect a lot of depressing stories about humanity. Death, murder, classism, child death, abuse is prevalent in Fio's stories.

Costumes and Weapon Stories

[sabigoe]

Note: Costumes come with a corresponding weapon. Costume stories usually relate to Fio. As for weapon stories, most are focused on an entirely different character that may have owned the weapon/object in the past. The weapons that are highly implied to be about Fio are Fate & Destiny and Wicked Bottles.

The Girl of Light / Fate & Destiny

[sabigoe]

Note: Default costume and weapon. Focuses on the main storyline.

The Girl of Light (screenshot)

A girl who lives in a country with a strict class system governed by the Nobility. Though she used to be a Commoner, changing national policy labeled her a lowly Goat Person, subjecting her to discrimination from all other classes.

Her collar and bindings serve as proof of her base status. When she sleeps, she is taken to a place called The Cage and shown terrible nightmares.

Weapon: Fate & Destiny (screenshot)

A girl and her family once lived in a land where they were the lowest of the low. Forced to wear collars, they were jeered at by rich and poor alike.

When the girl's father was fired from his job, he begged them to take him back—but his former friends and coworkers beat him to death instead.

The girl's mother eased her suffering by taking up with a younger man. And after her husband was killed, the pair abandoned the girl and fled.

Even the girl's former best friend scorned and abandoned her. Hungry and alone, the girl eventually sank into an endless pit of despair.

Dissenting Girl / Mon Mizette

Dissenting Girl (screenshot)

XX/XX. Morning clouds, afternoon showers.

It looked like rain today, so I stayed home and finished the book I borrowed from the library! It was an adventure story that took place at sea. I've never seen the sea, but the book says it's salty. I know I'm just a kid, but there's still so much I don't know—maybe I'll go borrow an ocean encyclopedia if it's sunny tomorrow!

Weapon: Mon Mizette (screenshot)

A rich girl lived in a beautiful mansion in a far-off city. Through her closet was crammed with beautiful outfits her parents had bought her, she took terrible care of them.

One day, she decided to wear a white linen dress adorned from tip to toe with lace. But when she spilled some tea on it, she simply tore the dress and threw it away.

The next day, she pulled out a beautiful ebony dress. But she quickly decided it was too plain, and tossed it out without ever trying it on.

Her discarded clothes were eventually put up for sale at a small bazaar. A local girl was amazed at the quality of the black dress; it was like nothing she had ever seen. But a pauper like her could never wear such a thing.

Guardian Girl / Muguet Lumière

[sabigoe]

Guardian Girl (screenshot)

Fi3: Dream Guardian

One ship sinks to the ocean floor; two shellfish play in a sunny shoal; three dolphins swim south against the waves; four directions are distinguished by a lighthouse glow; five great seas whose names are known across the world. The little fish, big fish, swimming fish, and eaten fish all dream the same. It is the story of the benevolent goddess of the sea.

Weapon: Muguet Lumière (screenshot)

I, a noble boy, and I always do as Mommy bids me. I study and learn new things every day so she might be happy—indeed, I would do absolutely anything to see her smile.

I practice art in the morning, swordsmanship in the afternoon, and dancing in the evening. I am very busy, but it is all worth it when Mommy tells me what a good boy I am.

Today I broke one of Mommy's rules and went to the river with my friends instead of practicing. Mommy was ever so mad at me, but I really wanted to be outside with my friends!

I have come up with a most wonderful idea—an idea that will let me abide by the rules and still play with my friends. After all, Mommy never told me I couldn't kill her!

Abstract Girl / Bloodroot Vase

[sabigoe]

Abstract Girl (screenshot)

Put on clothes. Take off clothes.
Put on clothes. Take off clothes.

I'd love to try on all sorts of different stuff, day in and day out! Frills, lace, headdresses, shoes... All sorts of cute things you'd think only existed in storybooks or in dreams.

But you know what? I think I feel most like myself when I'm wearing the same old clothes as always.

Weapon: Bloodroot Vase (screenshot)

One day, my master purchased a red rose blooming in a vase. The merchant claimed the rose would never wither so long as it remained in the vase. I wonder if this is true.

But the rose was not a bright enough red for my master, so he asked me to do something about it. I diligently watered it, gave it fertilizer, and set it in the sun, but the color did not change.

Enraged, my master claimed I was a useless lump—but was he not at fault for purchasing something so suspect in the first place? This unreasonable attitude made my own ire rise.

I struck and killed him with the vase. Seeing my chance, I dipped the rose in his blood. "There, sir!" I cried. "It is now the beautiful color you have been yearning for!"

My Place

Article III: Choice and Obligation of Labor

Nobles are excused from labor due to their land assets, but may selectively pursue labor. Commoners, classified separately from Nobles, must engage in labor from sunrise to sunset.

Participation in official work is not recognized for Goat People, who are classified separately from both.

My Future

Article V: Tax Revenue and Obligation of Payment

Nobles earn tax revenue from Commoners who live in their territories. Commoners must pay 40% of all wages as tax.

Goat People, classified separately from both, must pay 40% of wages to ruling Nobles and 20% to public projects.

The Jurist's Survey

PURPOSE AND BACKGROUND FOR REFORM

Our survey proves political change and revolution eventually comes for every government that has ever existed. According to the jurists who filed this report, it is imperative that we create class system which will satisfy the people, and in turn stabilize our government.

"Internal Document Re: Founding a Nation"

The Jurist's Proposal

REFORM OUTLINE

We will establish a new class below our present Noble and Commoner classes. Those in this new class will have few basic human rights, and not only they will be stripped of the ability to engage in economic activities, they will lack even the right to seek any form of recourse. Under this system, all citizens in the new class will be removed from their jobs, thus drastically lowering the unemployment rate among Commoners.

"Internal Document Re: Founding a Nation"

The Jurist's Treatment

ENACTING REFORM

To ensure a smooth transition, the jurists who contributed to and showed the greatest understanding of this plan will be in the first group, after which we will implement reform for the rest of the population. The new class will be selected from a blind lottery of the Commoners. Finally, the name of this new class will provisionally be "Rejected" until the cabinet can decide on an official name.

"Internal Document Re: Founding a Nation"

[sabigoe]

A Neighbor

A nation with which we share a border has implemented an infamous class system, and the trends within said nation are of interest not only to us their nearest neighbor, but to all the surrounding nations as well.

The "Goat People" designated as their lowest caste are said to be selected at random, but it is known fact that they are intentionally chosen from among merchants who do not ingratiate themselves to the state's aristocracy.

"Studies of a Neighboring Nation's Class System"

A Neighbor's Circumstances

Merchants, you see, are a group of people who have accumulated both wealth and knowledge despite their status as commoners, and many among them vocalize their grievances with the aristocracy and call for the redistribution of wealth. Viewing these people as a threat, it is thought that the aristocracy designate them as Goat People to oust them from society altogether. They are then stripped of their assets and forbidden from working in public positions—with some even being forced to engage in labor specified by the ruling aristocracy.

"Studies of a Neighboring Nation's Class System"

A Neighbor's Lunacy

People do not find value in their work when exploited; compensation for their labor is key. This nation takes people of talent, deems them Goat People deserving of scorn, and exploits them for labor. Then, when productivity suffers, they select a new group of Goat People and begin the cycle anew. This system seems like some pulled from an era long past, and this writer cannot help but feel as thought it is not an ideal arrangement in terms of productivity.
