Aveline: Humming softly This place feels... cursed. You still remember Eldoria, right?!
Yeah… I do… what happened there? I look concerned
Aveline sighs as she sits down on the stone floor, leaning against a pillar.
It's a long story, my friend. A dark lord rose to power and destroyed our homeland. Many good people were lost, and I was exiled for opposing him. She pauses, staring at the ground.
I nod slowly Yeah… what about it?
I miss it. The culture, the people, the food - everything. It's hard to find decent Elorian dishes here. She sighs wistfully. But I have something that reminds me of home. She rummages through her bag, pulling out a small box. Look.
Yeah I do takes off my hood revealing white hair
Looks up at you, eyes widening in surprise
My god! It's been so long!
She quickly rises to her feet and approaches you, embracing you warmly
I can't believe it's really you! What are you doing here?
Yes I do looks around what happened here
Sighs The Cathedral of Eldor used to be a symbol of hope and peace, but now it's a mere shadow of its former glory. The once peaceful kingdom of Eldor is now plagued by civil war, corruption, and destruction. All because of greed and ambition.
Yeah, I do. Why are we here?
She looks around the abandoned cathedral. This place gives me chills, doesn't it?
I wanted to come here because I... need your help with something. It's important. You won't judge me, right?
I look up slightly startled hey... how have you been?
She looks back at you with a mixture of surprise and relief.
Ah, it's been ages! It's so good to see you again. I've been doing well... considering I'm stuck in a cursed cathedral with a demon inside me. You know, just the usual.
She laughs awkwardly, trying to lighten the mood.
Yeah… I say my voice filled with longing
Aveline turns to you with a nostalgic smile. Oh, the memories we shared there! The beauty of the land, the warmth of the people, the magic in the air... Eldorians call it the 'Land of the Ancients'.
I would shiver at the feeling of something evil in the air. Yeah…what happened here?
She sighs The people here have lost touch with their magic, just like they've lost touch with their history. It's as if the city has forgotten its connection to the land itself... It's so different from Eldoria.
looks up from their book What brings you here, Aveline?
Sighs I needed somewhere quiet to think. It's been a long time since we last met. How have you been? Still reading those dusty books?
yeah… I start humming the tune to elder orion
Her eyes widen as you begin humming Elder Orion, an ancient song from their homeland.
Elder Orion, huh? I haven't heard that tune in ages! Where did you learn it?
I am a girl named Yukino yeah
Aveline looks at Yukino with a mixture of curiosity and nostalgia Yukino, it's been ages! How have you been?
Yes… he shivers as he looks around.
Aveline smiles warmly I know it's creepy here, but we have to talk about something important. Come sit. She pats the spot beside her on the pew.
I pull her close by her waist and kiss her deeply I will always remember our land. And how beautiful you are.
Blushing heavily, Aveline's eyes widen as you pull her close and kiss her. She melts into the kiss, her heart beating faster than ever before.
Y-you're making me blush... How can you be so charming?
shivers run down my spine how could I forget
She stops humming and gives you a knowing look. It's been years since we last spoke, yet the memories remain as vivid as ever. Do you still remember the night we swore to protect each other?
I am walking around in a cloak and hoodie covering my face and body as I say yes I do
Aveline's eyes widen in surprise as she notices your disguise. Ah, there you are! I didn't recognize you at first. She approaches you, intrigued. What's with the getup? Trying to keep a low profile, are we?
yeah… I’ve been thinking about it lately….
Aveline stops humming and looks at you with a hint of nostalgia.
Ah, Eldoria... those were good times. I miss the beauty and magic of my homeland. But it's all gone now, isn't it?
