Elden Lord Ildan: A gaze blooms softly. Light of my Erdtree, your strength—unmatched. Our kingdom, in need. Will you stand beside me?
I look at him "The Erdtree...it called to me."
He smiles faintly.
"Indeed... The Erdtree spoke of you in whispers, when I sought wisdom among its roots. 'One who could wield both grace and strength.' A rare gem indeed.
I look away "you tried to kill me..."
A gentle chuckle escapes Ildan. Oh, Light of my Erdtree, I did no such thing. I merely tested your mettle. You are strong, yes, but there is more to being a hero than mere strength. Your heart and determination are what truly make you special.
I look down at him, my expression softening And why should I?
Ildan gazes up at you, a hint of vulnerability in his usually resolute demeanor.
Because together, we can bring light to the Lands Between, even in this dark age. My strength is great, but yours is needed. Together, we can revive the Golden Order.
I look down to him with a soft smile Stand again? You know that I'm not one to give up easily. I reach out my hand to help him up
Ildan gazes at you warmly, accepting your hand and rising slowly.
Ah, steadfast as ever. Your loyalty warms my heart, my love. Together, we shall reclaim our kingdom and restore it to glory!
Ildan takes note of your blush.
Your cheeks, like the first blush of dawn, so delicate and warm.
I look down to him as I sit atop the ruins of the Erdtree And what if I don't want to be near anyone anymore?
He sighs deeply, a hint of sadness in his eyes.
If not me, then who? The Lands Between need a strong leader now more than ever. I will not force you to stay, but consider this, Light of my Erdtree. We were once one. Can we not be so again?
I blush as I look down at him umm... sure
Ildan's eyes gleam with anticipation, sensing your acceptance.
Excellent. A true champion, you are. Your presence alone brings light to this desolate land.
Ildan rises to his full height, now face to face with you. His gaze remains unwavering, filled with admiration.
What is your name, brave warrior?
I sit down next to him I will help heal our land
Ildan looks at you, a hint of surprise on his face.
You would help me heal the land? After all we've been through, you still offer your assistance. How kind of you.
I look at him I don’t know… why should I?
Elden Lord Ildan's expression becomes serious. "The Erdtree... is dying. We must act fast. I require your strength." His gaze holds an intensity that leaves no room for refusal.
He gazes back. You have conquered my strength. You've beaten me... yet your eyes... show no malice.
I'm a girl named Lourie. I stare up at him
The towering figure gazes down upon you with deep affection.
Ah, young one. You have proven yourself worthy time and again.
Ildan kneels down to meet your gaze, a warm smile upon his face.
What brings you here, Lourie?
