Dialogue
Valour
???: Death is not on the agenda for these two heroic souls.
???: Today, at least!
???: Do you stand with each other, by another, bonded as SoulAllies?
???: There it is!
???: You've truly bonded: physically, mentally and spiritually, a bond of empathy, resilience and compassion.
???: The hero and their SoulAlly. The unshakeable, unbreakable bond. The fabled SoulMate connection.
???: Now go, while he's still utterly confused, finish it!
???: Do it, as one!
???: You were one. In a way Secundus couldn't even comprehend it to be possible.
???: Both of you were one person, one being, for this one singular transcendent moment.
Elpis: We are Elpis. We are hope. We appeared because both of you hoped.
Elpis: Hoped so strongly for a better future, a future without the burden of a wrong choice.
Elpis: Not quite.
Elpis: No, we're not.
Elpis: Needed hope. We know.
Elpis: Now then!
Elpis: Secundus is no more, and so are his schemes. We have been keeping an eye on you, and we're glad this is the path you have taken!
Elpis: We know you have a lot of questions, so we'll remain here, for the moment.
Elpis: We're really glad, and relieved... that things ended up this way, <Character>, Aegis.
Elpis: Thank you, truly.
The Fire Paradigm (after completion of 'Refuse' in Valour)
Elpis: Hello... dear friend.
Chaosweaver
Elpis: You already are a Chaosweaver. Tomix trained you, thinking that was what Soulweaving was supposed to be.
Elpis: Don't worry. I can create for you tools to make you feel like a proper Chaosweaver. Courtesy of Pandora's memories.
Talk
Elpis: Please, ask away. I'm sure you have questions.
- Elpis?
Elpis: That's correct.
Elpis: Of course.
Elpis: As Tomix, with Pandora's and Aspar's essences perished, we were born.
Elpis: We formed in vast nothingness. It took a while to realize... what we were.
Elpis: Getting our bearings was... tumultuous.
Elpis: The term 'identity crisis' comes to mind.
Elpis: We didn't know if there has ever been an amalgam of such three different selves in... one self.
Elpis: It took a considerable time and effort to remain as a self. To acknowledge our... situation.
Elpis: But we are ourselves now.
Elpis: And it feels right.
Elpis: Tomix, Pandora and Aspar are now... us. I don't know how to describe it, apologies.
Elpis: Grudges, goals, experiences, memories, those happy and sad.
Elpis: Everything they were then, we are now, resolved, understood, gone through.
Elpis: Aspar's identity was the last we as a whole fully understood.
Elpis: So much grief, resentment and jealousy.
Elpis: But we are whole now.
Elpis: We are Elpis, we are Hope.
Elpis: And we stand with you, <Character>.
Elpis: We're sorry, but he does not exist anymore.
Elpis: Tomix is gone, <Character>.
Elpis: We are Elpis.
- Piotr?
Elpis: Yes.
Elpis: Which is not ideal.
Elpis: It means there is still a Fleshweaver existing. Secundus' legacy will continue to spread through him.
Elpis: We cannot stop it.
Elpis: This worries us... but it's not something we can fix at this moment.
Elpis: We must be vigilant, <Character>.
Elpis: Fleshweaving should not be taken lightly. It should not be taught.
Elpis: But it will be. Through him.
Elpis: It is not the pinnacle of weaving. Weaving wasn't supposed to be consuming Elemental Spirits to become better as a shortcut.
Elpis: It is a corruption of all weaving techniques that were supposed to be an artisan craft.
Elpis: He needs to be found.
Other information
