Overview

KuuvahkiKuuvahki is a type of native Nod-Krai magnetism-like energy, polarized not by positive and negative, but by red and blue.Characters can enter an empowered state under certain conditions:Standing near a kuuhenki,Being close to certain plants or objects (such as non-operational cleaning units, which emit a colored energy field in a small area) affected by kuuvahki,Interacting with the energy released by struck Atapetra Conches,Or simply being in a strong kuuvahki environment.While in the empowered state, characters will display the symbol of a crescent moon lit on its right side, glowing with the hue of the corresponding kuuvahki energy. This symbol may briefly appear without color only when the cooldown resets for transforming into kuuhenki and the character reabsorbs kuuvahki energy. Additionally, a special symbol may appear during this state to signal interaction with related mechanics. Within special Unipolar Fields, characters in the empowered state can perform a special jump.There are kuuvahki-influenced Bipolar objects that characters can attract while in the empowered state, such as Kuuvahki Dewdrops, Kuuvahki Bullets, Kuuvahki Rocks, and Kuuvahki Relay Mechanisms, which can be carried directly by the character, as well as Rainbowdrop Crystals, Portable Bearings, and Icy Pebbles, which are stored directly in the inventory.Related Entries:KuuhenkiKuuhenki are elemental lifeforms of Nod-Krai born alongside the newborn Moon Goddess. They can take various forms, like the contrasting yet entwined hues of Nocturnal Blossoms.There are three forms: red, blue, and white. Approaching a red or blue kuuhenki will cause it to follow you, allowing your character to remain in a constant empowered state. White kuuhenki do not grant an empowered state, but may lead you to a treasure chest if certain conditions are met. Depending on the situation, you may need to chase them, free them, or interact with the environment around them to fulfill the requirement and unlock the reward.Once suffused with sufficient kuuvahki energy, the character can transform into a kuuhenki for 6 seconds, allowing them to roam freely and make use of kuuvahki energy. Passing through a Moonshine Violet allows you to soar upward. While taking refuge within colored mists, the remaining time of the kuuhenki transformation is paused. You can aim the camera in the direction you want to launch and press the interaction button to switch forms (blue/red) and exit the mist. You can only take refuge in a mist of a different color than the kuuvahki form you are currently in. Doing so resets the launch process, allowing for more effective traversal through complex terrain.Related Entries:Coexisting with kuuvahkiIn Nod-Krai, numerous objects coexist with kuuvahki energy. Under the influence of the Pillar of Embla, these objects, when combined with pure kuuvahki energy, can be absorbed or thrown. You can hold to aim and throw an absorbed object in any direction while maintaining the absorption state.The objects that coexist with kuuvahki energy exist in three different states:· Fallowed: Objects lacking kuuvahki· Blighted: Objects affected by the Abyss· Suffused: Objects fully infused with kuuvahkiKuuvahki that exists in its pure energetic form can propagate through currents. Upon impact, Suffused objects will release a single kuuvahki current, providing energy to other objects susceptible to kuuvahki within a certain range. These objects will then become Suffused. Also, Suffused objects can be hit to release a single kuuvahki current.

Throw a Kuuvahki Relay Mechanism at an inactive assembly module to activate its forcefield. Once the forcefield has been activated, the affected assembly module will move. When in an empowered state, characters can direct their power toward a Unipolar assembly module to cause it to move. Unipolar Fields of the same color repel each other, while those of different colors attract. If same-colored Unipolar Fields are placed in opposition, containers will be stacked in an unusual manner.Tutorials: Bobik the Super StrongBobik can generate powerful Unipolar Fields to easily move or rotate containers that themselves have Unipolar Fields.Tutorial: Moon MirrorSome Moon Mirrors are blue or red.
