The Sworn Oath/Fjorm: Princess of Ice



Fjorm	Ah... Aagh! So hot...burning... Aaagh! An ocean of flames? Where am I?
Hah-hah-hah! Weaklings, all of you, fit only to burn!		Surtr
Hríd	Guh!
Aah!		Gunnthrá
Ylgr	Hríd! Gunnthrá! Fjorm! Help!
Ylgr? Hríd, Gunnthrá! Where are you?		Fjorm
Surtr	Hah-hah-hah! Feel my flames devour you...devour your very souls!
How can you be so cruel? To laugh in the faces of your victims! Are you a man or a devil?		Fjorm
Surtr	The weak are slaughtered. That is the proper order. It is your turn to burn! I will char your bones till they are ash!
No you don't!		Sharena
Anna	Not if we can help it!
Who are—		Fjorm
Alfonse	We must save Princess Fjorm! Your orders, `【Summoner】`?
You're here...to save me? Just who are you? Who...		Fjorm


Fjorm	Can we talk, Ylgr?
Sure thing, Fjorm. Do you need something? Whatever it is, just let me know.		Ylgr
Fjorm	I want to ask you about that dream you mentioned.
My mysterious stranger?		Ylgr
Fjorm	Yes, exactly. You said they were with us in the dream. I want to know who they are.
We've talked many times in my dreams...but when I wake up, I can never remember anything. Since that first dream we've spoken several times. But I still have no idea who I'm talking to! Why do you want to know? Did you have a dream too?		Ylgr
Fjorm	Yes, I did. It was very strange. And I can barely remember a thing about it... Someone saved me from terrible danger. That's really all I can remember.
That sounds scary! If you like, I can sleep with you tonight. That should help.		Ylgr
Fjorm	I appreciate the offer, Sister, but I think I shall be fine.
Maybe your mysterious stranger and my mysterious stranger...are the same!		Ylgr
Fjorm	Yes... Gunnthrá has more power over her dreams than we do. Maybe she knows this person's identity. Their fate may be closely twined with that of Nifl.


Fjorm	So you've been having unusual dreams too?
I have. In them, I'm deep in discussion with...someone. About the future of Nifl, I believe. But when I wake...I cannot remember a word. It all disappears, as if into mist...		Hríd
Fjorm	It's the same with me. I feel that these dreams are important, but I can't recall them...
I asked Gunnthrá about this. She believes we may possess a fragment of her power over dreams. These dreams, she believes, may offer hints of Nifl's future.		Hríd
Fjorm	So it stands to reason that the person we meet is important to the fate of Nifl.
Fjorm	Múspell may invade any day now. Perhaps as soon as tomorrow.
Fjorm	These dreams may be a warning of imminent crisis.
Dreams are dreams. They cannot change reality. We can ponder their significance, but... We have no choice but to prepare for battle here, in the real world.		Hríd
Fjorm	You're right, of course. It is our job to secure the future of Nifl and its people.



Fjorm	I feel...strange. Am I dreaming? I...can remember you. Yes, I know you—`【Summoner】`! Tell me—what connection do you have to the future of Nifl? Will we meet one day?
Yes. You will meet.		Alfonse
Fjorm	I remember you! I remember all of you... You saved me once—in a dream.
Princess Fjorm, the road ahead is full of both greetings and partings.		Anna
Sharena	And we may not be able to see the future from where we stand now.
What are you trying to tell me—tell us?		Fjorm
Alfonse	The future has not been written. We cannot yet know how our paths will cross.
There is one thing that is certain, however. We are your allies. No matter what happens, do not give up.		Anna
Sharena	When we finally meet, we will give you all of the help we can. Please, don't forget that!
These dreams...they are not nightmares. It seems that you have brought me allies and that you will bring me more... Thank you, `【Summoner】`. Even if fate dictates that Múspell's fury will ravage this land...I will not lose heart. If I wake now, I will surely forget this dream. But your words will remain a part of me. I will not bend. I will stand up to fate and move forward on my path. I have to believe that hope exists, even if I must find it beyond the snow-dusted plains of my home...		Fjorm
