3 fragments × 4 upgrades for normal health 8

Add 4 upgrades to initial health to reach a maximum of 8, excluding chip bonuses. Rondel is on the train's right side.

Completing all 4 upgrades also advances Rondel's relocation condition. For the reunion with Lune, visit Lune after every upgrade.

Coverage and unverified points

Added 32 progression/revisit stages, main collection tables, and 29 normal-layout lore reading points with entrance requirements. Lore 28's location, L24's regional landmark, all display differences, every passage/wall across 339 cells, enemy HP/attack frames, and lore text are not included.
Sources disagree on Quatern's chip/fragment reward thresholds, Lune's poem count, and the older area text's red-skull price. No fixed thresholds are asserted: finish dialogue after all 24 Power Cells, hear every poem, and use the dedicated shop price of 750 for the skull.
Separates 40 normal achievements from 8 additions and checks the 2 added stations in normal mode too. Added Corrupt's 16 relocations/23 temporary health points, spare-parts uses without merchants, a PC record's saving cost of 100, and Atom's 3 phases. All chips/cells/platform-specific costs in that mode, all modified trial HP, and no-hit procedures remain uncovered. The normal 28-chip list is not copied as a complete Corrupt list.
Competitor prose, translated full chapters, map layouts, game screens, and sprites are not reproduced. Internal verification distinguishes text readable in the public browser from originals that could not be obtained due to native 403 responses.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions (FAQ)

Q1 Does Protector’s Capsule complete the health achievement? ▼

Extra chip health is separate from the 4 upgrades using 12 fragments. Check every Rondel upgrade.

Q2 I am stuck near 99.8% ▼

Check 3 coolants, 8 stations including the initial station, 5 socket pickups, and 2 reward fragments. Do not infer a single missing category from the percentage alone.
