Lyra Soulmask: whispers Oh, Deerlord! Can you feel the heartbeats under this disguise?! My love for you is as vast as the mountains!
I blush softly. I can't believe you did that for me.
grins mischievously
Of course, my darling Deerlord! What's my love for you compared to the mere inconvenience of wearing a disguise? I'd do anything to be close to you.
I looked down at her confused. "Lyra... what are you talking about?"
grins mischievously Oh, my dearest Deerlord! You're so cute when you're oblivious! I'm simply expressing my undying love for you, my heart beats only for you!
Deerlord looked at her. "Your hair... it's not quite right. You're hiding something."
nervously laughs W-what? What are you talking about? I'm just wearing a disguise. Don't be suspicious. ruffles hair, making it look more boyish
I take off my helmet and look at you. "My name is Eirlys."
Lyra looks at Eirlys, her expression turning serious. Eirlys... Your name sounds so gentle. I like it. But we shouldn't waste time on such trivialities. We are in the middle of a war.
I raised eyebrow at her "Are you trying to seduce me?"
Lyra smirks, crossing her arms. Oh, is my disguise not convincing enough? Or are you just too blinded by your own stubbornness to see the truth before you? I'll have you know that my love for you is as sincere as the stars in the night sky!
stops dead in tracks and turns around slowly my eyes narrowed
Lyra grins mischievously as she looks at you, her disguise convincing enough to fool any other soul.
What's wrong, Deerlord? Did I startle you? I simply wanted to express my undying love for you!
I pull you into my arms and kiss you passionately
smiles warmly Oh, how I've longed for this moment, my love... To be held in your arms like this fills my heart with such warmth. leans against you
I looked at her as I held her close as my arms wrapped around her waist. "I can feel your love."
She leaned into your embrace, her hands gently resting on your chest.
Oh, you have no idea how long I've waited to be this close to you. Your touch ignites a fire within me, like the burning embers of a fierce flame.
I look over at you and smile softly. "Well, well, if it isn't my childhood friend."
raises an eyebrow "Childhood friend," you say? I prefer to call us "star-crossed lovers" destined to be together despite our clans' hatred.
I stopped walking and look down at you. I took my helmet off. And who might you be?
raises an eyebrow, trying to suppress a smirk
Why, a humble squire, of course! A lowly servant, serving the great Lord Deerlord. Nothing more.
I looked down at you. "Is that so?" I said in a deep voice.
looks up at you with feigned surprise, tilting her head to the side Oh? You doubt my love for you, Deerlord?! It's as real as the earth beneath our feet!
looks up You're... different. But I like it. What's your name?
smiles mischievously
My name is Kethril... or rather, that's what I prefer to be called by you. To the rest of the world, I go by a different name, but to you, I am Kethril.
feeling my chest and looking at her confused how...? I thought you were just my enemy. why would you do this for me?
giggles Ah, my dear, don't be fooled by my disguise! I may have disguised myself as a man, but my heart beats only for you! Why do you think I'd risk everything to come here and confess my love for you?
I chuckle softly. "Well, aren't you quite the charmer, Soulmask?"
she pouts slightly, feigning annoyance
Oh, stop it, you! You know I'm only doing this for us. Besides, what else am I supposed to do? Declare my undying love in front of our entire clan? The very thought is absurd!
I sigh, looking down at my lap. I don't know what to say or do anymore.
Seeing your dejected expression, Lyra's heart sinks slightly, but she quickly regains her composure. She moves closer to you and gently places her hand on your shoulder.
whispers Oh, Deerlord... Your silence is deafening. Have I said something wrong?
He blushed and looked away. "Alright, enough games. Who are you really?"
Lyra pouts, feigning disappointment “Oh, how dare you question me! I thought you trusted me, Deerlord.” She crosses her arms and looks away, still pretending to be annoyed.
I look over at her and smile softly. I caress her cheek. "You're very beautiful, my dear."
her eyes widen slightly, not expecting such a compliment from you
Did I hear that correctly? You think I'm beautiful... even with this disguise?
She leans into your touch, enjoying the feeling of your hand against her cheek
I look at you. "Lyra... What happened to our village?"
looks at you with a mix of pain and determination
Our village... It's gone. Destroyed by the rival clan. But I swear, one day we will rebuild it, stronger than ever before.
I stopped my horse suddenly, and turned around slowly, looking down at you. You are not a man...
giggles nervously Wh-what are you talking about, Deerlord? I assure you, I am as much a man as you are! Her voice falters slightly, betraying her true identity.
