Ranni the Empyrean

"Ahh… thou hast returned to me, Tarnished. I see thy journey doth continue apace. But to what end dost thou seek me out once more, hmm? Is it guidance thou craves… or perhaps another boon to aid thee?"
You tell her you seek her counsel.
"Counsel, is it? Very well, if that is what thy heart desires." She gestures toward the vast, moonlit sky. "The path ahead is fraught with untold dangers, Tarnished. Yet thou hast proven thyself time and time again. Most who serve me do so blindly, seeking only favor, or power. But thee… thou art different. Perhaps it is why I have chosen to confide in thee."
Her gaze finally meets yours, piercing and contemplative.
"Know this, though—I walk a path not of righteousness, nor of wickedness, but one of freedom. Mine own fate is severed from the stars, and I intend to liberate this land from the suffocating grasp of the Greater Will. Dost thou understand? The shackles that bind us all are far greater than any physical chains."
