I still remember the first time Moonlight Oath glimmered across my screen, a celestial tapestry woven with stardust and controversy. That initial reveal felt like catching moonlight in my palms—beautiful yet impossibly elusive. The gown flowed like liquid midnight, embroidered with constellations that seemed to pulse with their own heartbeat. But oh, the bittersweet irony! This digital masterpiece demanded nearly 6,000 Stellarites—a king's ransom that left many of us clutching our virtual wallets, whispering "Are you kidding me?" under our breath. When Scaly Dream waltzed in with its December 2024 discount, it only deepened the sting; why must true beauty come shackled to such extravagance?

🌌 The Stellarite Sting: Luxury or Lunacy?

My fingers trembled when I calculated the cost:

Item	Stellarites	Real-World Equivalent
Moonlight Oath Base	2,980	≈ $25
Evolution Recolor	2,980	≈ $25
Total	5,960	≈ $49.99 Stellarite Pack

The math hit hard—like a ton of bricks—especially when free outfits breezed through 90% of content. Our community forums exploded with 🔥 hot takes:

• "It's daylight robbery for pixels!"

• "But that embroidery... it haunts my dreams"

• "Why must gacha games toy with our hearts?"

💄 The Phantom Makeup: A Leak That Lit Hope

Just when I'd buried my longing, Specialist-Shock-997's leak reignited the embers. That beta makeup—vanished since Version 1.0—resurfaced in whispers. Soft silver pigments mimicking moondust, lips glossed like crushed galaxies... my soul did a little happy dance. Yet its absence felt personal, a ghost limb in Infinity Nikki's wardrobe. Would Infold resurrect it? Gacha games never waste finished assets—that's like throwing caviar in the trash—so hope flickers in my chest like a stubborn candle.

Where Might This Beauty Land? 🎯

Logic whispers possibilities:

1. Deep Echoes Banner (80% likely)

2. Where orphaned accessories wander

3. 💎 Requires "luck-of-the-draw" pulls

4. Heartfelt Gifts (15% chance)

5. A free olive branch? Don't hold your breath!

6. Moonlight Oath Rerun Bundle (5% odds)

7. Bundled at a "discount" that still stings

✨ The Winds of Change: Version 1.2's Revolution

Version 1.2 swept in like a fresh breeze—breath of fresh air, really—with 3-Star sets and Heartfelt Gifts. Suddenly, dressing Nikki felt joyful, not financially perilous! My favorite free pieces:

• 🌸 Sakura Serenade Kimono (earned via login)

• 🌊 Tidecaller's Trinkets (event rewards)

• 🍂 Autumn Whisper Headdress (craftable)

This pivot wasn't just popular—it healed our collective trust. Version 1.3's imminent banners tease new wonders, while 1.4's March 25 launch promises more generosity. Still, Moonlight Oath's legacy lingers like expensive perfume.

Tonight, I scroll through Infinity Nikki's constellations, tracing Moonlight Oath's silhouette in the Season Picks rotation. That leak? A reminder that beauty—even controversial, even costly—never truly fades. What goes around comes around, they say. So I'll wait, starry-eyed and patient, for either its return or the sweet relief of letting go. After all, in this infinite universe of fashion dreams, even the grandest gowns can't outshine a community's resilience. ✨
