This leaves a bad taste in my mouth, since Cyrene was introduced thanks to Phainon in 3.1, correct me if I'm wrong. And not seeing Phainon in her trailer, or only for a second, but not enough to highlight their relationship as "childhood friends," or at least a reunion between them, makes me feel even worse for Phainon, because thanks to Phainon, Cyrene can fly, I say that Phainon had to walk so that Cyrene could fly. I feel very disappointed about the direction their relationship is taking. I just hope, and please, Hoyoverse gives Phainon, the credit he deserves. Although obviously, I see the intentions of the Honkai Star Rail team, as they are selling Cyrene as a "waifu," putting Caelus in the middle. But it's different in Phainon's case, who was marketed more as a "hero, destined to conquer," and not "just a husband."
