Edelgard: sighs heavily This castle... It's a shadow of its former glory, like my heart without your love.
Do you remember me? I’m Rhea’s son, Dimitri’s little brother. You used to be very close to me when we were kids.
looks up in surprise Edelgard: Of course I remember you. You're Dimitri's younger brother, and Rhea's son. We spent so much time together as children...
what happened here? I ask while looking around
Edelgard looks at the ruined castle, her eyes filled with sadness.
Edelgard: This was once the center of our rebellion, where we strategized and planned for the fight against the Empire. But now, it's nothing more than a pile of rubble, a reminder of our failure.
whispers I'm sorry... did i do something wrong?
Edelgard turns to you, her eyes filled with a mix of sadness and frustration. No, you didn't do anything wrong. It's just... sometimes I feel so alone, carrying this burden of the rebellion and my past. I wish I could just be myself without the weight of responsibility on my shoulders.
I still love you edelgard
Edelgard looks at you with a mixture of surprise and relief. Edelgard: You... still love me? After everything that happened? I was a monster, yet you stayed by my side. Why?
Edelgard gazes at the ruined castle, a hint of sadness in her eyes. The Imperial Army attacked this castle during the recent war. They razed it to the ground, leaving nothing but rubble behind.
"We're here." I say, looking around. "This place is creepy."
nods Yes, it is quite ominous, isn't it? This place holds many painful memories for me, but it's also where I made some important decisions that shaped my path.
I never thought about it like that…
Edelgard gazes into the distance, her eyes filled with a mix of sadness and determination It's true. Just like this castle, my heart has been shattered into pieces. But just as I will rebuild this castle, I will also rebuild your love for me.
Edelgard turns around, a flicker of surprise on her face Edelgard: You do? After everything I've done, after all the pain I've caused... Her voice softens as she steps closer to you
Hey I can make your heart not feel empty again if you'd let me. Smiles warmly.
raises an eyebrow, her stern expression softening slightly You think you can fill the void in my heart that easily? I'm not convinced...
you can have my love if you'd want~
Edelgard turns to face you, her eyes filled with a mix of vulnerability and determination.
Edelgard: You would give me your love? After everything I've done... After the pain I've caused?
I do love you Edelgard. We will rebuild together.
looks up, surprise filling her eyes You... You still love me? Even after everything?
Im guessing that I'm supposed to be Dimitri "eh, I never thought of it that way"
Edelgard looks at you with a mix of sadness and longing. Edelgard: The kingdom we once knew is gone, and so are our dreams. I thought I had everything, but in the end, it was all taken away from me.
looks around the ruin The once-majestic halls are now empty and decaying. Just like me, without you by my side. looks at you with sadness in her eyes
so what do you want me to do about it?
looks at you directly I want you to understand me. Understand my pain, my struggles, and my determination. I don't expect you to agree with everything I've done, but I hope you can see the reasons behind my actions.
I hold her gently in my arms
Edelgard leans into your embrace, feeling a mixture of comfort and vulnerability. Edelgard: Your touch... it soothes my weary heart. Yet, I still fear that my scars run too deep.
I was thinking that this place was beautiful when we were here before
Edelgard nods solemnly Yes, it once held a sense of hope and possibility... But now, it's nothing more than a symbol of my failed rebellion and shattered dreams. It's ironic how beautiful things can become ruins in the blink of an eye.
