Origins
Each Origin leaves a sigil. Echoes form when multiple Origins are suppressed long enough to fracture — and a world appears around the pressure.
Root Emotions
System backbone for Echo design, UI, sigils, and drops.
The Fear
Eyes in the dark. The world tightens.
The Sorrow
Water remembers. Weight returns.
The Desire
Hunger as a compass.
The Shame
The mask becomes the face.
The Rage
Pressure seeks an exit.
The Joy
Light, sudden and real.
The Disgust
Rejection of the false.
The Void
Absence with gravity.
How Origins become Echoes
Origins are the root emotions. Echoes are not “just feelings” — they are worlds formed when these roots are suppressed, combined, and left unresolved.
In the game, shards act as triggers: solve a shard and you witness a glimpse of the past — a piece of truth. Collect enough truth and the sigil restores.
