The Astral Orrery is the game’s gated finale — a mysterious installation floating “on the edge between worlds known and unknown.” Its Spark Generator reacts with the Astral Ore buried in the valley below, holding the structure aloft “sparkmagnetically in perfect equilibrium.” Secretive Scholars keep to its heliocentric halls.
It does not appear on the map at first, and there’s no overland path. You reach it only through the world’s mirrors: hold the walk button into any of the six region mirrors for a few seconds and you teleport to Mirror’s End, the Orrery’s hub. (Those mirrors live in Radiant Manor’s foyer, Queensbury Crypt, Nox’s Bayou, Septemburg, Bone Beach, and Coltrane Peak.)
Mirror’s End and the color-switch puzzle
From Mirror’s End you can’t just walk in. You must activate switches in the mirror rooms — at least 3 of 7 color combinations — to unlock the path north into the main dungeon. Deep inside sits a hidden Spark Generator, the likely seventh of the game’s generators. (Source counts disagree — most say six main generators, a few say seven; six main plus this hidden one is the working model.)
The seventh mirror is the exit: it returns you to the big mirror in the northern Ossex castle, which you can never enter from the city side.
This region is the climax of the canon order — Queensbury Crypt → Nox’s Bayou → Septemburg → Bone Beach → Coltrane Peak → Astral Orrery. For the surrounding fights, see the full boss list.

How do I open the path inside the Astral Orrery?
From Mirror's End you must activate switches in the mirror rooms — at least 3 of 7 color combinations — to unlock the path north into the main dungeon.
Is the Astral Orrery the final region?
Yes. It's gated behind progression rather than an item, and it holds a hidden Spark Generator — the likely seventh generator. The world's seventh mirror is the exit, returning you to the big mirror in the Ossex castle.
How many generators are there really?
Most sources say six main Spark Generators across the regions; a few outlets say seven. The working model is six main generators plus one hidden inside the Astral Orrery — treat the exact count as provisional.
