Dialogue
*You arrived to meet with Riadne in Arachne's Sanctuary on Ravenloss.*
Riadne: <Character>! Hello! Welcome to my little orphanage!
Riadne: I assume you got my letter?
<Character>: That I did!
Riadne: Well, thank you for... arriving! To be frank, I actually didn't think you'd show up. I know you have places to be and Lore to save!
Riadne: You're busy busy busy!
<Character>: Why wouldn't I show up!? Just because we don't keep in touch, we still go way back, Riadne!
<Character>: Sure, I may bounce between world-threatening events, but I always have time for my friends.
<Character>: In your letter, you mentioned that a child would like to meet me?
Riadne: Not just meet you, <Character>! She'd absolutely love to go on an adventure with you!
Riadne: You have to excuse me, but when I was spending time with her recently, I kind of... hyped you up, so to speak!
Riadne: We have these little moments when I go on adventures with her when the time allows, but... I'm no grand hero, like you are. I just make do.
Riadne: And she absolutely cannot wait to meet you! A proper hero!
<Character>: Well... I hope I live up to the expectations, then. Lead the way!
Riadne: Thank you! Let's get you prepared!
*A purple-haired child is in a field of flowers; you arrived to meet her.*
<Character>: Myshka?
*Hearing your words, Myshka meets with you.*
Myshka: You're not Miss Riadn—
Myshka: Ooooh! It's you! Miss Riadne said you'd come!
<Character>: Very nice to meet you, Myshka! I'm <Character>!
Myshka: I know!
*After introducing yourself to Myshka, you ask her a question.*
<Character>: Sooo...
Myshka: I'd like to go on an adventure with you. Is... is that okay?
<Character>: Of course it is!
<Character>: Riadne— Miss Riadne explained everything to me and told me this wouldn't be your first adventure!
Myshka: No! I've had lots! I'm a DragonLord!
<Character>: No way! So am I! | Really? That's remarkable!
Myshka: Yes... Anyway, my dragon Squeakscale was dragonnapped by the evil sorceress Cataryna!
Myshka: Her castle is very far away. There will be perils.
<Character>: Oh, will there be? I laugh at perils!
<Character>: See that peril over there?
<Character>: HAH!
*After hearing your request, Myshka accepts it.*
Myshka: Okay! Follow me!
*You fight through various monsters as you find Cataryna; during your adventure, Myskha narrates it.*
Myshka: Our adventure started! I've packed my pajamas and food for the journey ahead of us. <Character> said that this will be a piece of cake!
Upon entering the desert:
Myshka: It was very hot. We ignored all the mirages, because Miss Riadne told me that deserts have mirages and that it's just a trick.
Upon entering the forest:
Myshka: We got lost in the Forest of the Lost, but then we didn't because I knew the right way. And it was this way!
Upon entering the snowy mountains:
Myshka: It was sooo cold, I had to put on my sweater. I knew a shortcut, because I was here before, when I played with a squirrel.
Upon entering the cave:
Myshka: We made camp. Miss Riadne taught me about stalagmites, stalactites and stalagnates! <Character> told me many stories around the campfire!
Upon entering Cataryna's castle:
Myshka: It was time to bring Cataryna to justice for taking my Squeakscale! I really liked the castle though. It will be my new home!
*Eventually, you and Myshka reach Cataryna; after defeating her, she screams as she slowly melts into yolk.*
Cataryna (briefly): I'm meeeeeltiiiiiiiing!!!
*After Cataryna melts into yolk, you and Myshka find Squeakscale, who turns out to be a brown dragon plushie.*
Myshka: Squeakscale! She didn't hurt you!
*You smile.*
Myshka: Look! She's safe!
<Character>: We got here just in time! Good thing you knew how to get past that blizzard quickly.
Myshka: Mhm.
<Character>: You know, I have a dragon too. <Dragon>. They're about the same age as yours, I'd say. Maybe a bit older, but still!
Myshka: Ooh! Can I meet <Dragon>?!
*You contemplate upon asking Myshka's question.*
<Character>: ...
<Character>: How about this: The next time we go on an adventure, I'll try my hardest to make sure <Dragon> tags along as well!
*Myshka pauses before asking if there will be another adventure.*
Myshka: There will be a next time?
<Character>: Only if you want there to be!
Myshka: Yes!
<Character>: Then there will be a next time!
*Myshka smiles upon your answer.*
Myshka: Thank you! I had fun!
<Character>: So did I, Myshka!
<Character>: 'Till next time!
Myshka: Bye!
*After completing your adventure with Myshka, Riadne teleports you out of the Cataryna's castle, signified by white spider threads; after your teleportation, Myshka smiles and hugs with Squeakscale; scene fades to black before fading back in; you and Riadne are back in Arachne's Sanctuary on Ravenloss, where Riadne examines the unconscious Myshka through her arachnomancy magic; it is revealed that you were projected into Myshka's mind by Riadne all along.*
<Character>: How long has she been like this?
Riadne: Hard to say.
Riadne: She was brought here in this state, and even when I arachno project myself into her psyche for our adventures, or just to play...
Riadne: ...she doesn't really know or doesn't understand what I mean, when I ask her.
Riadne: Maybe she was always like this, but... her muscles are not atrophied, so as I said, it's very hard to say.
*You ask Riadne if Myshka has any parents.*
<Character>: Any record of her parents, or—
Riadne: None.
Riadne: She's all alone. In her body, and in her mind...
<Character>: That's...
*You become concerned upon hearing Myshka's condition before asking Riadne if she's okay.*
<Character>: Are you doing okay? You look pale.
<Character>: Well, paler than usual...
Riadne: Oh, it's just... draining. The ritual, I mean.
Riadne: When I arachno project myself, it's already very taxing on my mind and body, but when I do it for others, it's...
Riadne: I'm fine, <Character>, really! I'll just need rest!
*After listening to Riadne, you ask her if there is anything to help Myshka.*
<Character>: So, she just... exists in her mind.
Riadne: It would appear so.
<Character>: Is there anything you can do for her? Anything I can do for her?
Riadne: Believe me, <Character>, I've tried. I've researched, I've reached out, I consulted other mages, healers, medical practitioners, even people of science...
Riadne: Avatars forgive me, I even turned to necromancers...
Riadne: The best I can do for her right now is to just talk to her, go on these "mindventures", and make sure she's comfortable.
*After a brief pause, Riadne reveals some of her powers.*
Riadne: You know, I have these tiny little spiderlings that crawl into her mouth to deliver sustenanc—
<Character>: Wow, that's sooo cool, but look at the time!
Riadne: Haha, I'm just kidding!
*Riadne smiles after joking; after a brief moment, Riadne smiles smugly to reveal the "little spiderlings".*
Riadne: Or am I?
*Your expression turns into tiredness.*
Riadne: Thank you, <Character>. Truly!
Riadne: You've given Myshka fun memories she can relieve and re-experience.
Riadne: For someone locked inside their mind, new memories and stimuli are everything.
<Character>: It was a pleasure, Riadne, really.
<Character>: Do keep me posted if she ever wants another adventure.
Riadne: Certainly! Have a good day, <Character>!
*As you are about to leave, you turn around and tell Riadne one more thing.*
<Character>: Oh, and Riadne?
<Character>: You are a hero.
*Riadne becomes confused upon hearing that she is a hero.*
Riadne: What?
<Character>: Before. You said that you are not a "grand hero".
<Character>: You are.
<Character>: To her, and, I imagine all the other orphans here, at the very least.
*Riadne smiles upon hearing your words of being a hero.*
Riadne: ...Thank you.
Riadne: Now get out of here! Go save the world again!
<Character>: Ha, it's the least I can do.
*You leave Arachne's Sanctuary; scene pans right to Riadne, who is smiling; scene fades to black.*
