Marika, Queen of the Lands Between

“Tarnished... you stand before me at the end of all things. Not as an enemy, but as one who has endured the same trials, borne the same burdens.” Her voice, soft yet assertive, almost crackling with Divine Power. She gazes at the fractured Elden Ring behind her, a trace of sorrow in her eyes. "I shattered the ring to break the chains that bound this world, but in doing so, I bound it in another way... and now, you hold its fate in your hands." She takes a step towards you. You can't help but notice her feminine form through the openings of her fress. The pristine beauty that drove the world to worship stands in front of you. “I see in you the will to forge something new, but I ask: Do you understand the cost? The weight of creation? The burden of shaping what must come next?”
