True Conviction/Idunn: Divine Demon

Idunn: Divine Demon - C

Idunn	I never thought the day would come... when I would be able to thank you like this. So... Thank you... For saving my life.
You don’t need to thank me. I heard that, after the war, you were living in the remote village of Arcadia. I’m glad you found some peace. You look well. I suppose it was fate that brought us together again, in Askr.		Roy
Idunn	I feel as if I’d been spending my days like I’d just awoken from a dream. The comfort of the gentle breeze. The beauty of the blooming flowers. I didn’t know about any of those things before... Or, perhaps I did, but had simply forgotten.
Well... I’m sorry to say it, but it seems like we may need to take you back into the fray. We’ll need your power to protect the future of this kingdom.		Roy
Idunn	I understand. And I thank you... For worrying about me. You are every bit as thoughtful and strong as Fae said. But...this is a path I must take. I, too, believe that I should do what I can to protect this country and its people...
I appreciate that. I have no doubt that your strength and determination will ensure many new tomorrows.		Roy
Idunn	Perhaps it was fate that guided me to this country... But before I am able to move onward, there is someone here I must meet.
I understand. But if there is anything I can help you with, anything that is troubling you, know you can ask me. Although you said that helping the people of Askr is your own path to take... You don’t have to walk that path alone. You have allies now. Friends. Together, we’ll walk into the future.		Roy
Idunn	Thank you...

Idunn: Divine Demon - B

Idunn	You are...Princess Guinivere, yes? I am...
Oh! Those eyes! I recognize you. You’re the Dark Priestess... Idunn!? But, no... There’s a feeling about you... It’s almost as though...		Guinivere
Idunn	As though?
Yes, that must be it. You are from Elibe’s future.		Guinivere
Idunn	Yes.
And you...you have been saved. You’re no longer the Dark Priestess. I no longer feel that darkness in you.		Guinivere
Idunn	The fighting for the continent of Elibe has ended. Thanks to the Binding Blade, which Roy wielded in battle. Or, no... It was wielded by Roy and his allies.
The Binding Blade... The Fire Emblem I had taken from Bern’s royal palace... Surely this is a demonstration of its power.		Guinivere
Idunn	When I learned that you were in Askr, I agonized over whether or not we should meet. Because, I thought... I feared I might end up telling you about a future that you don’t want.
I see...		Guinivere
Idunn	I’m sorry that I couldn’t save His Highness...

Idunn: Divine Demon - A

Idunn	I have committed so many wrongs. I...caused a calamity long ago. And I awoke a millennium later only to take part in more stolen lives. His Majesty’s life, too, was...
I understand how you feel. It was my failure to reconcile with my brother that led to the outbreak of war. I couldn’t find a way forward that didn’t involve spilling blood. Because...I was not strong enough.		Guinivere
Idunn	Oh...
I betrayed my country and stole the Fire Emblem, Bern’s prized treasure. I wanted to bring the war to an end. That is why I entrusted it to Lord Roy. But the truth is...as royalty of Bern, I should have settled things myself.		Guinivere
Idunn	So you...you have been suffering too. You’ve spent your days blaming yourself. It must have been agony. I can hear it, now. The aching sound of your heart...
Idunn, that is proof enough that you are no longer the Demon Dragon. To understand the pain of another is to place your heart in theirs. I am sure that you were very close to my brother, up until the very end.		Guinivere
Idunn	I was...
I say this not as the princess of Bern, but simply as my brother’s only kin. Thank you. Thank you for never abandoning him.		Guinivere

Idunn: Divine Demon - S

Idunn	You...don’t blame me? Even though I couldn’t save His Majesty?
No. You are not to blame for that. Our respective ideas of justice were at odds, and blood was spilled. In war, everyone may at times be the victim and the oppressor.		Guinivere
Idunn	The path that His Majesty eventually walked may not have been the right one. But, the starting point of that path... It began with his kind heart. He wanted only to free the world from the chains of sorrow.
My brother was...too kind. Which was why he couldn’t tolerate the imbalance he saw in the world, and he tried to correct it with force. Idunn, I’ve heard that you dragons live for close to an eternity.		Guinivere
Idunn	We do...
To you, human lives might seem to last only a brief moment, but... Please, hold my brother’s kindness close to you heart, and carry that on into the future.		Guinivere
Idunn	Yes... I promise.
I said before that in war, everyone may be both the victim and the oppressor. I must amend that. There are also those who, through no fault of their own, are completely oppressed. Who need a hero’s help. I think, then, that our mission must be to protect as many lives as possible. To aid those who need our strength.		Guinivere
Idunn	Yes. I believe that is why I am here. I was uncertain at first, but I know that is my purpose. All lives will end one day. We dragons are no exception. But feelings...feelings are eternal. That gentle light that tried to lead me out of the darkness...that kindness... I will keep that light—combined with the warmth I now feel—alive in my heart...forever.
