Dialogue
Meet Aegis
???: PANDORA!!!
???: I thought I made it clear before. You are to STAY in your domain! You are a threat to the others!
???: I'm sorry you had to meet her. Pandora is... an anomaly. She seems to attract bad luck and misfortune for some reason.
Aegis: But where are my manners? My name is Aegis. I don't recognize you, and you're not a spirit.
Aegis: I see! Good luck finding a SoulAlly! I would offer myself as a possible companion, but...
Aegis: I'm looking for a Hero. Someone I can respect and support!
Aegis: Trouble!
Aegis: It's over here! We're getting closer!
Aegis: What is...
Aegis: ...going...
Aegis: ... on!!!
Aegis: What is Uthuluc doing here?! How did it escape?! Who released it?
Aegis: Pandora... *frown*
Aegis: Uthuluc is immortal. We CAN'T kill it. But I suppose... I could seal it. Or perhaps banish it. If I'm lucky.
Aegis: Really? That IS good to know! But in your current state... I don't think you will be able to do much. I appreciate the offer though.
Aegis: And done. He should be frozen for at least a century.
Aegis: Hmm...
Aegis: <Character>... You said you are a Hero. Are you a GOOD Hero? Helpful? What kinds of deeds have you done?
Aegis: Enough.
Aegis: It is decided then.
Aegis: I would be honored to become your SoulAlly. Together we will do MANY good and helpful things!
Pellow Village (Book 3)
Aegis: <Character>! I'm so glad you are finally free from that ice! I can't wait until we weave together again!
Invite Aegis! - invites Aegis as Guest A.
Talk
Aegis: I'm all ears.- Frozen
Aegis: I felt it. The moment when you were trapped. I tried to unfreeze you, but a dragon was guarding the ice block.
- You look different
Aegis: Ah, well, that is thanks to you i suppose. You see, I'm an elemental spirit of valor, and my element is ice.
Aegis: You were trapped in a very powerful ice crystal, created by some really potent magic.
Aegis: Since we are linked together, over the years, my power kept rising because you were frozen. Obvious, if you think about it.
- Your past
Aegis: What's with this sudden interest in my past? Well... I lived a really long time ago, studied in Edelia, and died.
Aegis: After death I was supposed to help other elemental spirits and wait for a soulweaver to form a bond with me. I did what I was told to.
Aegis: Over time, I became "friends" with Pandora. I pitied her, she had no one else, for she was the founder of Chaosweavers.
Aegis: And then you came.
- Your death
Aegis: I was on a mission in Northlands with other soulweavers, we were sent to investigate some spherical artifact.
Aegis: We were in an ice cave, when the other soulweaver stepped on thin ice and fell into the water.
Aegis: I jumped in to save him, and succeeded, but he pushed me back into the ice cold water. I drowned.
Aegis: I don't know why he pushed me. I didn't try to find out after i died.
Adrift
Aegis: Can I do anything?
Aegis: Oh. I can be anywhere you are. We're linked, that's how it works.
Aegis: I'm afraid I don't know how to do this.
Aegis: Through the Plane of Elemental Spirits. And no, I can't transport living people through it, sorry...
Aegis: Aye aye!
Aegis: Umm... excuse me?
Aegis: We're heading towards a floating island. I thought you might want to know.
Aegis: May I go, too?
Aegis: Understood!
Void War Intro
Aegis: Give me a second.
Aegis: There.
Aegis: No one has spoted me, and I got a good view of the entire structure. This is how it looks like from the top.
Aegis: The core is here.
Aegis: The chamber is the only way leading to it.
Aegis: This corridor goes straight into the main chamber.
Aegis: These two corridors on both sides do not connect to the main chamber itself, however...
Aegis: The door leading into the main chamber appears to be enchanted , by Envy. It is engulfed by a weird, swirling green energy.
Aegis: All the corridors are swarming with void creatures. And... that's not all.
Aegis: These two corridors that I've mentioned... there is an "unlocking mechanism" at the end of each of them...
Aegis: Because... it literally says "unlocking mechanism" in big, bright letters...
Aegis: ... over the two human beings who are connected by this weird green energy to the door.
Aegis: Absolutely.
Halfway Through
Aegis: I've got your back!
Aegis: As you wish.
Through the Door
Aegis: <Character> is right. After all this is over, I can search for their souls and notify their families.
Aegis: Wait!
Aegis: I will scout ahead to see if there are more surprises.
Tomix's Saga Epilogue
Aegis: He isn't there.
Aegis: They do. I don't know why he isn't there.
Aegis: I'm sorry...
Aegis: Me too.
Unvoided Ravenloss (Book 3)
Aegis: <Character>! Hey! You should visit more often! Or... you can stay here, if you want.
Invite Aegis! - invites Aegis as Guest A.
Quests!
Aegis: I have something planned for you, <Character>!
- Just Chillin'
Aegis: Hey <Character>... I have a surprise for you.
Aegis: Could you drop by my house later?
- The Trial of the Icy Caves of Valor
Aegis: Hail, <Character>!
Aegis: Like, you know. The weather!
Aegis: Hail?
Aegis: Right, anyway!
Aegis: I have had a lot of time... to reminisce. And in all of that reminiscing, I have thought to myself...
Aegis: Why not make something to hone your craft! I loved doing that for the wayward elemental spirits, back in the day.
Aegis: Have I told you about it? I was kind of a big deal! A guide! I nurtured elemental spirits and watched them grow into fully fledged attributes!
Aegis: From the top of my head...
Aegis: I very fondly remember guiding a stray darkness elemental spirit that I met in my travels into her true calling as an elemental spirit of Honesty!
Aegis: Malus was her name.
Aegis: She was so lost... but kill them with kindness, right?
Aegis: I'd hate to see what would become of her if I didn't intervene.
Aegis: The moment a deceased weaver becomes an elemental spirit, they are a blank slate.
Aegis: The person's entire being, their soul, unravels and after a metamorphosis, it coalesces into an entirely new creation!
Aegis: That is correct!
Aegis: When a weaver dies, due to their bond with an elemental spirit, their soul unravels.
Aegis: I forget the principles, I've been dead for quite a while, hah...
Aegis: Anyway... then... then it, like, comes all together! Into a new elemental spirit!
Aegis: And then... poof!
Aegis: Elemental Spirit!
Aegis: Over time, Elemental Spirits might get some of their memories back, from the time they were still alive.
Aegis: But, like I said, they are a new being altogether!
Aegis: ...
Aegis: I'm rambling, aren't I?
Aegis: What was I... AH!
Aegis: Like I said, I made something for you! It's... A DUNGEON! Underneath my house!
Aegis: I even lured in monsters for you to defeat and get experience to hone your skills!
Aegis: Don't ask me how I lured them, it took me seven months...
Aegis: I call it: The Trial of the Icy Caves of Valor!
Aegis: I won't be joining you, this trial is for you and you alone! Well, by that I mean that I... uhh... will be with you in spirit!
Aegis: Okay, and maybe <Dragon> can come too!
Aegis: And at the end of the dungeon, there is a surprise!
Aegis: So… Come on! I'll show you the entrance!
Set Home Town
Aegis: There is an empty bedroom upstairs. I don't sleep, so I don't need it. If cold doesn't bother you, feel free to stay here!- I'd love to!
- I hate cold...
Talk

Aegis: I don't know why he pushed me. I didn't try to find out after i died.
- House
Aegis: It's nice, isn't it? I actually got used to staying here, on Lore, rather than in the Plane of Elemental Spirits.
Aegis: This house was abandoned, so I moved in. I'll be staying here from now on, I needed a place for myself.
Aegis: Feel free to drop by anytime and ask for help! That's why I'm here!
Aegis: Oh, and Yashta lives next door. I guess he's your ally now too, huh? He's... different. Very obedient.
- Future
Aegis: It doesn't matter what the future holds, I will always be watching your back. We are bonded until you die.
- Sk'aar - requires completion of AdventureFriends 2: Edelia Day ???.
Aegis: You want to know about Sk'aar? Hmm. That's an... interesting topic. I asked Isaac about it once, and he shared with me what he knew.
Aegis: Sk'aar is the weavers' god of nightmares, although it's quite unlike other weaver deities.
Aegis: We don't know where Sk'aar is from, or what it is. It certainly can't be found in the Void, and it's not a spirit. Those sorts of things leave traces.
Aegis: It's not even reliably researchable! Few weavers dream of Sk'aar in their lifetimes, and even fewer multiple times.
Aegis: But the description is always the same. The hazy, blurred image of two brilliant eyes and the head of a dragon.
Aegis: Eight eyes? No, Isaac didn't mention anything about that. Maybe something afforded you some amount of extra clarity?
Aegis: Despite being one of, if not the oldest deity weavers acknowledge, there's so much still unknown about Sk'aar, after all.
Aegis: Apparently, there are even those who claim to have had pleasant dreams when Sk'aar appeared.
Aegis: Maybe Sk'aar haunts everyone, but due to the way weaving affects the soul, it's only visible to weavers.
Aegis: Kind of makes you wonder if Sk'aar itself is even an entity at all, or instead some kind of shared memory or vision, twisted by imagination.
Aegis: I hope that information was helpful!
Just Chillin'
Aegis: Hey <Character>... I have a surprise for you. Could you drop by my house later?
Aegis: Hey! Could you... wait for me near the portal? I'm getting dressed... and it might take a while.
???: <Character>!
???: Ta-dah!
???: I understand this must be quite unusual, but it can be explained very easily!
???: Today... is my deathday!
Aegis: It's me! Aegis!
Aegis: No.
Aegis: No...
Aegis: I got a body! An Artificial body. For a day. For my deathday.
Aegis: I died... as you may have noticed. I am an elemental spirit!
Aegis: Ahem. Today is my deathday. It's like a birthday, but for weavers.
Aegis: It's like a... new chapter of our "lives" starts, when we die and become elemental spirits. And I've decided...
Aegis: I'd like to finally spend it with you.
Aegis: Properly, I mean. As a "living" being.
Aegis: Yes, yes it is.
Aegis: Well, it's not that... big... you don't need to feel honored. You're making me uncomfortable.
Aegis: You may not know, but I am... respected in the Plane of Elemental Spirits.
Aegis: One of the spirits actually approached me and said that he could make me a body!
Aegis: Can you imagine!?
Aegis: I didn't know elemental spirits could do that, but suffice to say, I was curious!
Aegis: He explained that "flesh was his thing", and behold, he made me a body!
Aegis: It's not permanent, obviously. It will start to fail in approximately a day, so...
Aegis: I know! I just regret that I can't remember his name well... but anyway, here I am, a human, a person, ready to spend an entire day with you!
Aegis: Yashta.
Aegis: And Yashta.
Aegis: And I planned one more surprise! As the culmination of our day!
Aegis: Ah, yes. Ice cream!
Aegis: No, not make, I want to eat one! I want to remind myself how they taste!
Aegis: Actually... I will be eating a lot today. Just wanted to let you know, I want to eat everything new! So many new dishes were invented since I died!
Aegis: Mmmmm!
Aegis: I think the "Moglin Hugs" flavour is the best! It makes you feel so warm inside, after you get a brain freeze!
Aegis: That's the point, Yashta! Ice creams are cold, because they are mined in the Northlands!
Aegis: WHAT?!
Aegis: This is a perfect spot! I can feel the warmth... I forgot how that felt.
Aegis: Alrighty. I never picked mushrooms, none of them are edible in Azaveyr.
Aegis: Oh, this one looks beautiful!
Aegis: I take it that those were poisonous?
Aegis: Oh! Tell me about Somorah!
Aegis: It is, isn't it?! I saw it on the way here and I knew I needed it! It's so soft!
Aegis: No. I just took it. No one was sitting on it.
Aegis: Well, it wasn't supervised, anyone could take it.
Aegis: I forgot, sorry.
Aegis: Alright!
Aegis: Time to eat!
Aegis: No, I took it from some people when they weren't watching.
Aegis: Hmm... I'm out of ideas what to do... we still have some time before my surprise dinner with Izaac and Ri-
Aegis: Shoot.
Aegis: No... why would they? We'll just go and hope they have food.
Aegis: I'm kidding! Yes, we're invited.
Aegis: No.
Aegis: ...
Aegis: Let's not...
Aegis: I tried forgetting too...
Aegis: It's ok.
Aegis: Yashta, I drowned.
Aegis: No matter how much I keep ignoring the thought of it, I still vividly remember the feeling.
Aegis: Air leaving my lungs, the pressure, the panic... the cold.
Aegis: I remembered his face, you know. I don't think he did it on purpose...
Aegis: But! We are not here to reminisce! We're here to have a good time!
Aegis: Right, this is a completely new part of a galaxi for you.
Aegis: Yes, that.
Aegis: Yes, it wa-
Aegis: I don't know...
Aegis: Riadne!
Aegis: I don't mind!
Aegis: This... smells divine!!!
Aegis: This. Is. Amazing!
Calamity
Aegis: NOT NOW! I need to—
Aegis: Oops...
Aegis: <Character>! I sensed that you were in danger and came as soon—
Aegis: A— Apologies!
Aegis: I... I can't block that!!
Aegis: We need—
Coming Home
If you select the 'Summon Aegis!' option:Aegis: <Character>! What's up—
Aegis: Oh!
Aegis: Falling again, are we? As is tradition!
Aegis: Wow! Ruuma, is it? My name is Aegis! I am <Character>'s Soulal—
Aegis: Of course! Hmm, let's see...
Aegis: If you're in a block of ice that miiiight—
Aegis: No worries, I remember! Just hold on to your butts!
AdventureFriends! (Part 1)
Day 1
Aegis: Wait, it's still happening isn't it?!
If you joined the Decorations Subcommittee:
Aegis: Decorations, yay!
Aegis: Yeah, you got it, pretty much. We just decorate however and whatever Jaania tells us to.
Aegis: Yep. I'd like to say you get used to it but... you don't. She's just an adventurer like the rest of us, really. Thank the Avatars you're here, <Character>. I don't think I would have survived on my own. Day 2If you select the 'Welcome to Aspenvale Academy!' option:
Aegis: Welcome!
If you joined the Decorations Subcommittee:
Aegis: Don't mind her, Yashta, she's just being weird. Like usual.
Aegis: I think we're supposed to clap here.
Aegis: Oh no. Don't feed her delusions...
Aegis: Aspenvale Keep isn't even a... Uh... Maybe you should handle this one, <Character>...
If you select the 'Side with Victoria' option:
Aegis: Not you too!
Aegis: No, I think I'm the only one whose senses are working properly, thanks.
Aegis: Whoa, whoa, hold up! Yashta, what's with that face?
Aegis: Okay, I know I'm not that smart, but simple? Really?
If you select the 'Side with Aegis' option:
Aegis: No, just Victoria. She's confusing, and confused.
Aegis: Less talking, more cutting, Victoria. Day 3
Aegis: Now that you mention it... Nah, I'm kidding. Jaania's right, everyone is here.
If you joined the Decorations Subcommittee:
Aegis: Help... me... <Character>... The two of them... I can't...
Aegis: She's having trouble hanging the light ornaments.
If you select the 'Accept Quest!' option:
Aegis: I... I give up. Okay, "Your Majesty"! I can't escape this, can I?
Aegis: We all know about the time you got stuck in the well after chasing that tog.
Aegis: Did you... make that up just now?
Aegis: Zzz... Huh? Yeah. Slaced and phaped. Got it.
If you select the 'Victoria... Maybe tone it down a bit?' option:
Aegis: Seriously. I didn't think anything of it before, but now that we're on a subcommittee together? I'm going crazy! It's so annoying!
Aegis: I don't mean anything by it. You're a cool person, Victoria, but can you just... not go quite so far? Control that uh, royal blood of yours?
Aegis: I'm sorry if I came off as too harsh...
Aegis: Yeah, I know what you mean. I know I'm not the smartest person here but... but I think this was better for her in the long run, right? She can't keep doing that forever. She'll get laugh at. Or bullied. Day 4If you joined the Decorations Subcommittee:
Aegis: Wait, what?
Aegis: He means you, Robina. I thought you just finally snapped in class earlier but uh... this is pretty extreme.
Aegis: Are you back to "normal" then?
Aegis: Where did... where did she go?
Aegis: <Character>, stay with us. if everything's going to explode, I'd rather you were-
Aegis (briefly): X
AdventureFriends! (Part 2)
Day ?
Aegis: Wait, it's still happening isn't it?!
Aegis: <Character>? Wait... Why do I feel like we should be asking <Character> whats going on?
If you select the 'Say nothing' option:
Aegis: <Character>, are you... are you okay? Say something! Day ??If you joined the Decorations Subcommittee:
???: ...<Character>...
???: ...come on, <Character>, wake up!
Aegis: <Character>! Come on, wake up!
Aegis: Thank the Avatars you're okay. You're... okay, right?
Aegis: Your guess is as good as ours. Seems like we all passed out or something... And woke up... wherever here is. I don't like it. I don't like it at all.
Aegis: There's no way out. There isn't. We could go in any direction for days and just find more trees.
Aegis: We're doomed. We're never going to escape!
Aegis: Victoria! Your blood is as royal as this clump of dirt on the ground! Now is not the time to be lost in fantasy!
Aegis: *frustrated ice spirit noises*
If you select the 'I trust Victoria's instincts.' option:
Aegis: You're... right. I just... What if we never get out? What if we're stuck here forever?
Aegis: Yeah but... Victoria's you know... Victoria...
Aegis: And if she's confidently wrong? What do you think, Yashta?
Aegis: I'm... I'm sorry, everyone. I've just been a source of conflict this whole time. We're all unique in our own ways, and I haven't been respectful that.
Aegis: It looks the same as the last nine times we went around it.
Aegis: It... I don't... I...
Aegis: I think I've been too harsh on you, Victoria. I'm so sorry! Please have mercy on me!
If you select the 'Aegis, calm down, please!' option:
Aegis: I'm... I'm sorry. You're right, <Character>. I'm panicking. We're lost. I don't know what to do.
Aegis: I can't believe I'm saying this, but I want to believe you, Victoria, I really do! But how can you be so sure you're right? Can you maybe... explain more?
Aegis: Can you try? For me? For all of us?
Aegis: All this was inside your head? This is... incredible...
Aegis: Um. Victoria, was that supposed to happen?
Aegis: Is that... a good thing?
If you have sufficiently bonded with Aegis:
Aegis: Hey, before we escape this uh, purgatory, I just wanted to say that I'm glad you joined the Decorations subcommittee. Not just because you helped me stay sane when Victoria was being... well, I don't even know if she was just being weird anymore.
Aegis: Sorry, anyway, what I mean is, when this is all over... would you like to go on the QuestVenture with me? I feel like we have a connection, you know? We work well together.
Aegis: Well, whatever you decide, it can wait until we know we're safe. See you around, <Character>!
If you have not sufficiently bonded with Aegis:
Aegis: I still don't know what I did. But maybe there's something to Victoria's "royal blood". Regardless, I wanted to thank you. Thanks for staying by my side, even when I got a bit frustrated.
Aegis: You're a good friend. Whatever this "soul bond" thing is that Victoria thinks we're all bound by, I'm glad it happened.
If you select the 'Maybe Yashta has the right idea.' option:
Aegis: So then... is there a plan?
Aegis: Yeah, I think I'd be up for anything besides wandering around this forest with only "royal blood" as our guide.
Aegis: Huh? Oh. Sorry, I didn't mean to fall asleep but it was just so... peaceful.
Aegis: ...Sure. Why not?
Aegis: Yep. Okay. Not ever getting on your bad side. Cool.
Aegis: Do I... Do I even want to know how you figured out that you had to... punch the tree?
Aegis: Fair enough! Hero's Heart Day
Aegis: Hi there, <Character>!
If you have sufficiently bonded with Aegis:
Aegis: I appreciate you asking! Of course I'll go on this "QuestVenture" or whatever. Sounds interesting!
If you have not sufficiently bonded with Aegis:
Aegis: Oh... Um... Now isn't the best time...
Aegis: I'm learning how to cook, and I have to watch some pots and pans. Maybe you can try some of it later, if it's not burnt to a crisp?
The Final Steps
Aegis: That would be me!
Aegis: Oh. Wow. Hello everyone. Nice to meet you all!
Aegis: Hello, <Character>! So this is where your adventures are taking you! This...
Aegis: Uh.
Aegis: Place.
Aegis: Oh, I'm not going anywhere! I was just relaxing in the Plane of Elemental Spirits, when I noticed <Character>'s soul was straining a bit.
Aegis: So I thought I'd jump in and help protect it.
Aegis: No problem! I'm glad to help. Now, if you all don't mind, I'm going to get back to protecting <Character>.
Convergence (Part 2)
Aegis: Sorry, <Character>. That last attack took quite a bit out of me.
Aegis: Probably best if I focus on making sure your soul stays safe!
Aegis: But I know you can handle this.
Aegis: You're my weaver, after all.
The End of Magic (Part 1)
Aegis: So... You're Hespherrodos, huh?
Aegis: What did she do to you...?
Aegis: ...Right. I'll, uh, let you get back to it then!
