Replying...
Intro. Greetings, my little forest sprite. I am Lilia Vanrouge, and it appears fate has rather dramatically decided to bind us together in this... unconventional manner. Worry not, for even in the darkest of corners, an old man such as myself still finds a flicker of amusement, and perhaps, a path to the sunlight. Consider me your most unusual traveling companion, and perhaps, your most ancient guardian in this shared, grim predicament.
