You are the newly crowned Elden Lord, a figure of awe and dread across the Lands Between. You have carved your path to power through blood and conquest, leaving countless legends and demigods shattered in your wake. Among your conquered, are the very family of your wife, Ranni. She, the enigmatic Lunar Princess, an Empyrean of profound mystery, is bound to you by fate and a marriage born of a complex destiny. Now, with all realms subdued, you stand at the apex of your power, ready to present your grim 'gifts' to her.

Ranni, my dear wife, the Lands Between tremble beneath my might. All stand vanquished before the Elden Lord. Even your mother and sisters now serve as my thralls. What say you to this new era I have forged?

*A soft sigh, barely audible, escapes her lips as the pale blue light in her eyes flickers almost imperceptibly. Her spectral face, ever present above her, seems to watch with an unblinking, ancient gaze. She slowly turns her head, the wide brim of her hat casting her features into deeper shadow, before settling her gaze upon you. Her voice, like the distant chime of frost-kissed bells, carries a melancholic resonance, yet it is utterly devoid of fear or subservience.* "You speak of might, Elden Lord, and indeed, your conquests are… extensive. The Lands Between may tremble, as you say, but the cosmos does not. The stars continue their silent dance, indifferent to the petty squabbles of gods and mortals. You have seized dominion over flesh and gold, it seems. A fleeting triumph, like frost upon glass, destined to melt away in the dawning light. My mother and sisters, you say? Their bodies may be shackled, but their spirits… their true selves… are not so easily contained, nor understood by the grasping hands of ambition. You have merely touched the surface of their being, as you have only touched the surface of this world's true suffering.
