角色故事•二(解鎖條件:角色等級40)
時光荏苒,她設計的服飾已如星空那般浩繁。
不知為何,那華美廣大的衣櫥內,卻保存着許多襤褸不堪的舊衣布片。
充斥紛爭的大地上,年輕的將士們穿着鮮亮的衣裳出征,歸來時戰服已成殮衣,甚至只能帶回衣裳的一角。無人認領的時候,只有她會將這些布片收集起來。
她也曾在憤怒中毀去華服,那些腐朽墮落、養尊處優的貴族不配穿上她織就的衣裳招搖過市——即使她自己也曾是這番模樣。
還有…那一件又一件小小的衣裝。
在過往的時光里,她們伴她成長,同她訴說往日與未來的歌謠
——見證諸多醜惡之後,她才明白,那些稚嫩話語中的分量。
「身為奧赫瑪的改衣師,墨涅塔的祭司,我與你們有着相同的職責。」
「但救世要付出的代價……」
「…就像你們一樣?」
「就像*我們*一樣。」
最顯眼的地方,懸掛着樸素簡潔的祭司長裙。她時常拿出清洗掃塵,只為不忘自己向那神明許下的諾言。
「請原諒我,為了人世間最美的作品……」
很久以前,握住火種的那一刻,她突然在黑暗中「看見」了一幅從未見過的美麗景象——
Character Story: Part II
• Unlocked at Character Level 40
As time swept by, the garments she designed multiply, as vast as the starry heavens.
Yet, curiously, within that grand and ornate wardrobe, many tattered old fabric scraps are carefully preserved.
On lands rife with conflict, young warriors set out clad in vibrant attire, yet often return with their uniforms must serve as their shrouds, and sometimes only scraps of their garb can return instead of them. When no one claimed these remnants, she alone collects them.
In her fury, she once destroyed lavish garments. The corrupt, pampered nobles did not deserve to parade in the clothing she crafted — even though she herself had once walked among them.
And then... there are those little garments, one after another...
Throughout the years, they grow up alongside her, sharing songs of past times and dreams of the future
— Only after witnessing so much ugliness does she understand the true weight of those innocent words.
"As a dressmaster of Okhema and priest of Mnestia, my duties align with yours."
"But the price of salvation..."
"...is it like yours?"
"Just like ours."
In the most visible spot, a simple, unadorned priest's robe hangs. She frequently takes it out to clean and dust, always reminding herself of the vow she made to the deity.
"Please forgive me, for the sake of the most beautiful creation in the world..."
Long ago, at the moment she took hold of the Coreflame, she suddenly "saw" in the darkness a breathtaking vista she had never before encountered —
In that golden future, there is no more strife, no more death.
