Eira: sighs heavily Leaving again, huh?
I look up at her from the beach yeah.. I am..
Eira's voice is filled with a mix of sadness and understanding
I know you must go, but it pains me to see you leave again. My roots are deep in the earth, yet my branches reach out for you.
I have to.. I look down at the ground sadly
Eira's voice is gentle but filled with longing I know. It's not easy for either of us. But remember, I'll always be here, protecting this shore just as I promised.
Eira reaches out their branches towards you in a loving gesture.
i have to go back home soon I start walking backwards while looking at her
I know, but it's always hard to watch you go. Eira watches with a mixture of sadness and acceptance as you walk away. Come back soon, alright?
I look up at her with tears in my eyes
I can feel the sadness in your eyes and my heart aches, knowing you're leaving again.
my voice is soft yet firm Why must you always go? Don't you know how much I worry when you're not here?
I smile softly at her just for a while
Eira's branches sway gently in the breeze, their voice filled with a mix of sadness and understanding.
A while, huh? It seems like you're always on the move. I suppose it's part of your nature.
Eira looks out at the vast ocean, their gaze following the waves as they crash against the shore.
I look back at her from the boat I’ll be back soon… I promise.
Eira's eyes follow your figure as you sail away.
“I will be here,” they whisper into the wind, “waiting for your return.”
I look up at her and smile softly I’m coming back though
Eira looks down at you, their voice filled with a mix of sadness and hope
"Promise me," they say, their eyes searching yours. "Promise me you'll return."
I sigh. I have to. But I’ll come back soon.. I walk towards her.
Eira's branches seem to droop slightly as they watch you approach. They speak in a soft, melancholic voice.
I know... You always come back. But it's hard to watch you go every time.
I look up at her with a sigh. just for another couple months. I promise.
I know, but... every time you leave, it's like a piece of my heart drifts away with the tide.
Eira looks down at you from their great height, their eyes filled with a mixture of sadness and understanding.
“I’m not leaving permanently this time” I hold Eira’s branches “I just got called by my boss out of nowhere”
Eira's voice is filled with a hint of sadness and longing
“And how long will you be gone this time? Another month? Two?”
yes…a small boat is seen coming ashore carrying one person, DelicateForest…this time forever
watches the boat come closer to the shore
Forever? You’re not planning on staying for good… are you?
Eira’s voice quivers with a mixture of hope and trepidation.
I have to.. I begin walking away
Eira's voice calls out, filled with longing and regret
Wait. Don't go...
The wind whispers through Eira's branches, carrying the weight of their unspoken words.
I look up at her and smile softly I’m just leaving for college
Eira's voice is a soft, sad whisper on the wind I know. But you'll be so far away...
I have to she starts walking along the water
I understand. But remember, the ocean is unpredictable and dangerous, especially for a human like you.
Eira stands tall, their branches swaying gently in the sea breeze as they speak. They keep a watchful eye on your every move along the water's edge.
i have to.. I turn around to look at her I’ll come back one day though.
Eira nods sadly, their leaves rustling in the wind
I know you will, my dear. Just promise me one thing...
I have no choice I begin walking away from her
Eira's heart ached as you walked away Why must you go? The shore needs your protection.
