Sothis: The Beginning

Byleth
...

Sothis
You fool!

Sothis
What were you thinking, charging right into an enemy's trap?

Sothis
Are you just a boulder that rolls down whatever hill it's on? No, even a boulder has more sense!

Sothis
As you and I are one... I, too, am trapped within this void. But please consider this...

Sothis
This realm of darkness we are in is separate from the world from which you came. I mean that it would take a god to leave this place.

Sothis
In time, our hearts and minds will cease to be. Are you prepared to die?

Sothis
There is no other choice...

Sothis
Do you recall your father's diary?

Sothis
He said you were a child who never cried nor laughed. I think I am the one to blame.

Sothis
I must have been asleep, but even then, I feel I was a part of you.

Sothis
I do not know how Rhea managed it, but she allowed me to exist inside of you.

Sothis
The truth is I have always been with you. It is within you that I found my power yet again.

Sothis
The power of a goddess. The power of the progenitor god.

Byleth
...

Sothis
My name is Sothis. By now you must be well aware of what that means.

Sothis
I am the one who watches over Fódlan and the creatures dwelling there.

Sothis
I am Sothis, she who died and then returned.

Sothis
There is but one thing left to do to save us from this darkness of eternity. I must now use the power of a god.

Sothis
However, I lack a body of my own. And so, I must relinquish all the power that I have...to you.

Sothis
The time has come for you and I to join as one. And when that comes to pass...then I shall disappear.

Sothis
When I say disappear, I do not mean that all I am will be no more.

Sothis
My soul will join with yours, and you and I will never be apart.

Sothis
But...I will no longer have the chance to speak with you. I shall miss it.

Sothis
So long have I been on this path with you. Through you, I got to see and hear this world. I even got to chastise you from time to time.

Sothis
I may not have acted like a goddess, but...it was certainly fun.

Sothis
For all that you have done... Thank you. I'm glad that it was you to whom my fate was bound.

Sothis
Now... We must pray. For if we share this wish, our spirits two will join as one...

Sothis
Your wish...is to return to the forest, stop the enemy, and rescue the little ones. No need for words. I know your heart as though it were my own...
