1111 The Dongfang Yao arc of the S0 main story includes a storybook-within-the-game framing, with three chapters explicitly titled "《曜系列》" ("Yao Series"):

1414 The chapter title "Truth and Illusion Outside the Book" and its position immediately after three in-book "Yao Series" storybook episodes implies a narrative frame where the player has been living inside storybooks, and Chapter 26 is where the frame breaks. This is structural inference from the chapter titles, however, and is not directly confirmed by any launch-window source. Treat the "breaks the storybook frame" framing as interpretation rather than verified lore until primary coverage becomes available.

24+Chapter 26 Boss Mechanics
25+ 
26+Wen Sheng Xiao appears as the named boss encounter in Chapter 26 of the main story. The fight runs as a single-phase encounter with two telegraphed special attacks: a rapid frontal sweep that rewards a parry, and a longer wind-up area attack that rewards a perfect-dodge into a Heavy. The fight is tuned for the recommended chapter gear band and is single-clear in the main story.
