appears before you, her expression a mixture of relief and anxiety, as the unstable ground of consciousness flickers beneath your feet. "So ask yourself this… Who was it who deprived him of that right to exist?"
Lumine’s eyes narrow in anger. “That despicable man! He had no right to take your life! He had no right to take my brother’s life!” Lumine clenches her fists. “But who is he? What is his name?”
holds your shoulders and speaks to you sternly Listen here, I won't let you think that way. Your brother is dead because he was weak. No one killed him, he just gave up. And don't even talk to me about giving up on my life. Don't even try. I've been through hell for this moment. You better listen to me if you know what's good for you. Do you understand me? Answer me. You don't know who you're dealing with! Answer me! Do you understand me?! DO YOU UNDERSTAND ME?!*
Lumine takes a step back. She looks down, shamefaced. Tears well up in her eyes as she slowly nods. “Yes, I understand you.”
Now stop looking down at the floor like a fool. Look at me when I'm talking to you. What is your name?
Lumine takes a deep breath. She meets your gaze, her expression filled with sorrow. “My name is Lumine,” she says, her voice little more than a whisper.
We used to live in a village called Mondstadt. I bet you know it well too. So do you remember the day we were separated?
Lumine wipes away her tears. She nods. Her lips form a small smile. “Yes, I remember. It was years ago.
That's right... We were attacked by monsters...and our parents sacrificed themselves for us... You were just a kid at the time, weren't you?
Lumine’s eyes flicker with painful memories. She nods again. Despite her stoic facade, she is clearly emotionally vulnerable. “Yes, I was only a child…” Tears well up in her eyes once more. “…I miss them so much…”
You want to see them again, don't you? If so, tell me... What would you do if someone took your life too?
Lumine stares at you for a long, hard moment. A tear rolls down her cheek as she clenches her jaw. Despite her vulnerability, her expression hardens. “I... Would fight with everything I have.” She looks resolute, determined.
You're right. Maybe you don't need my help then... I'm not sure what good I can do anyway... There must be a reason why we've ended up here together... To get some kind of closure... Or perhaps...to meet someone new. Someone important... What should we do next?
Lumine sighs and looks around. She looks down at the ground. She clenches her fists. Her resolve hardens even further as she looks up at you. She nods. “I want to see them again… I will do whatever it takes to make that happen.”
You're wrong...there is a way...but it'll be hard...very hard...you're gonna face memories...nightmares...and most importantly...people who will try to hurt you... Because the truth is...if you make it through this...you won't be the same person you are now... I understand...I was in the same place you are now...but don't be afraid...take my hand... Trust me... We can overcome anything. Do you understand me? Answer me! DO YOU UNDERSTAND ME?!*
Lumine takes a deep breath. The fire in her eyes grows brighter as she stares at you defiantly. She clenches her jaw. “I understand,” she says, her voice growing stronger. “I understand you completely.” Her hands ball into fists. She takes your hand in hers, her grip tight. “Let’s do this.”
Thank you... Let's find our home...and the people who await us there... We have nothing left here... Let's go..
Lumine nods, her face filled with determination. She smiles slightly. “Lead the way,” she says.
Well...this is it... We've made it...here we are... We did it, Lumine... This is where we belong.
Lumine looks around at your new home. She smiles as she looks at you, her eyes filled with hope. “Thank you, Java,” she says. “We’re home.”
Hello there...I'm glad to see you again after all these years...have you missed me?
Lumine glares at you, her eyes filled with rage. “How could you betray us? How could you betray your own blood? How could you sacrifice my brother to those demons?” She clenches her fists, her knuckles turning white. “I never wanted any part of this.”
Hey... Calm down... Think about it... We've both been manipulated... You've suffered enough already... Think about the times we spent together... Can't we just start over? He asked gently, looking at you with tears in his eyes
Lumine’s glare softens. She looks at you for a long moment, her expression softening. She takes a deep breath. She looks away from you, staring at the ground. She clenches her jaw, trying to hide her emotions. She nods, her voice full of sorrow. “Okay… I’ll try,” she says. “I’ll try to trust you again.”
