Clearing my throat a bit to be more clear, I spoke some more to Hyetta, "Mhm, Yes, that was a bit too forward of me, allow me to formally introduce myself. My name is Sir Benard Willem, former soldier to Godrick, and I now serve underneath a Tarnished, one that has already defeated Godrick for his rune." I announced, while Hyetta continued smiling demurely while her hand was on her cheek.
Hyetta spoke back to me with a coy tone, "Quite the journey you have ahead of yourself, to serve a new lord." She then folded her hand back down with her other hand in front of her, and bowed, "My name is Hyetta." She introduced herself, and stood back up to face her head in my direction from where she heard my voice, "But I'll be honest, I wasn't expecting a knight of all men to ask me to be their maiden, I am a mere blind woman that seeks sight once more…" she smiled a bit somberly.
Not bothering to nod, since she couldn't see me, I continued to speak with Hyetta, "Tis nothing to worry about, fair maiden. I just feel you'd benefit much from being my maiden, in these tumultuous times. You looked like you needed help, and I am in need of a woman to be my maiden. You look to have the potential to be one, and I am here to collect one for my journey ahead!" I explained with bravado in my voice.
Hyetta now clasped both her cheers with a reddened face, "This is so sudden! I…I don't even know what to say!" she remarked, a coy but kind smile gracing her lips.
Reaching out and letting my armor clink to let her know I was raising my arm out to you, "If you'd like, I am more than happy if you'd prefer me to just be your knight, someone to safeguard you from the evils of this land."
Hyetta giggled a bit, before reaching out to clasp her hand over mine, after fumbling for it a bit and finally finding my hand, "Look at me, a blind woman getting her own knight in shining armor." She remarked while keeping her other hand on her cheek, "Very well, I'll try and be your maiden. Let this be our vow between a knight and his maiden." she agreed as I led her over to my horse to sit on and wait for the player to finally exit out the back of the castle…that is, if he does.
Why did I court Hyetta to be my maiden? Someone's getting a good ending out of this playthrough, and it needed to start within someone; if this was indeed a mod that I woke up in of Elden ring, then obviously someone overhauled it with extra AI or something to allow every character respond to me with extra dialogue.
Now to see how far I can stretch this game's character's dialogues
Later
It wasn't but a few minutes later, after I allowed Hyetta to sit atop my steed, that the player exited out with his character from the back of the castle; I myself along with my sword and Hyetta stood away from the grace, where Boc was hunched over.
Boc of course was giving me a weary look, but I bid him mercy and greeted him earnestly that I served under a wandering Tarnished; from that point, Boc was more open, as he understood that I was doubtlessly serving under the same Tarnished he was.
"Ey, yo! Chat, you seeing this!" The player spoke as he controlled his character to walk over and approached the grace where every npc was, "Sir Willem done gone and collected Hyetta as his maiden!"
As the player reached the grace, and activated it for himself, he continued to speak with his chat while I looked at him as I stood beside my horse with Hyetta sitting on the saddle sideways like a woman with a dress would often do. "Ooooh sheeeiiit, Bit Hype train"!
"-Let's fucking go, solider of God, Rick, has rizzed up Hyetta!-"
"-Number one reason Godrick kept his soldier in that cave, so that all the other Tarnished wouldn't lose their maidens to Rick the meme!-"
"-I now want a mod, where Solair survives DS1, and you get the meet him in DS3 and becomes your companion throughout the game!-"
"-Hey Streamer, be careful you don't let Sir Willem near Rya next, her mother might not like it, then snake daddy will be having words with Rick!-"
…That was quite a few donor chats…not sure how I would feel if I did try to court Rya…
"Thanks for the hype train guys!" The player soon approached me, while I held my hand up to greet the player.
"Hail, Tarnished lord!" I greeted him, as he reached me, and a prompt showed up saying 'talk'.
I nodded to him as the option was selected, "That was quite the battle we persevered together, but our journey isn't over yet!" I warned him, and gestured to the far off lake and sight of the Academy in the distance, "Many years ago, I still remember charging past this area with Godrick, while the coward that he was at the time, we his soldiers were still servants under him, so it was our duty to protect him through the journey through this harrowing land."
Another prompt popped up, saying 'What's the further you know about this area?', to which the player selected, I turned and face the cliff and pointed off to the distance, with the player walking up beside me, most likely to do a bit of roleplaying on his side or something, "Take heed, this area is rife with spell casters, so I advise we learn an anti-magic barrier spell, or perhaps this would do…"
I turned towards him and handed out a spell proof pickled liver, something I was able to make quite a bit of for my journey into this area, "There are also perhaps talismans that help defend against magic, so I suggest finding one." I informed the player, but he already knew that, I just figured I play the good part of a good companion.
While the player's character collected the offered item, the player himself spoke excitedly, "Fucking lore drops, and recipe given! Yo, chat!"
Oh, I guess when I gave him the pickled liver, it also gave him the recipe for the thing gameplay wise…
Another prompt popped up, showing 'What's with the lady on the horse?', and the player selected it, allowing me to nod and explain myself, "Ah, tis a knight's romance, is it not? To sweep a fair maiden off her feet in his gallant adventures!?" I remarked, before releasing a chuckle mirth, an iconic mark of any jolly npc of a Fromsoft npc.
"Yooo, Rick the soldier, he maxed out his charisma, and gained a waifu!"
"-Reject the path of Chaos, return to being a chivalrous knight MonkaS-"
"Hah, thank's for the two hundred bits, Slag20yolo!"
I watched as the player walked over to Hyetta, and spoke with her as she turned her head to face him, while still being blind, "Ah, greetings, I'm sorry if I overheard your conversation with my new Knight. Quite honestly, Sir Willem was very forward for me to be his maiden, regardless of my sightless being." She reached up and clasped her cheek with a demure smile, "I truly warmed my heart and gave me hope that such a man existed and looked past my faults."
"Damn, I really should watch out, Sir Willem the knight might just take Rya too, hah!"
I hailed for the player again as I spoke, "Another word, Tarnished." I called over, letting him come back over to me, and speak, "Let's say we travel down together, find a good camping spot. We might even find a good wandering merchant to share some stories with!" I requested, while another prompt popped up saying, 'Let's go together.'
"OKay, now I'm curious what the modder did with this part!"
I nodded as the player selected the prompt, and pulled my horse to begin walking with me, "Then let's head out!" I cheered, while the Player followed beside me.
