I need to speak with you, Gunnthrá. It seems that our worries have become reality, my sister. Surtr is coming, with the Fiery Hordes of Múspell at his back.

So...soft. Mmm... Wait...am I dreaming? Wait a minute! I remember you! You've been showing up in my dreams lately. Who are you? You're not from Nifl. You're a good person, though. I can tell. How can I be so sure? I can just tell. Your warmth...it's the warmth of the sun... I don't know what it is, but I feel safe when you're around. It's almost like you're one of us...like you're part of the family. Hee-hee. I'm Ylgr, the youngest princess of Nifl. Tell me your name. Hmmm... <player>... I see. Visit me again, OK? I don't know anything about you yet! Next time, we need to talk. Really talk. OK?
Oh, good. You're back! Hey, <player>... It's really odd. I know I've heard that name before, but when I wake up, I can't remember it. Even if I try really hard to hang on to the memory, my dreams always fade away... My sister Gunnthrá is different. Thanks to the rite she performs, she remembers her dreams, but I can't. But when you came back to me, I could remember your name. That's enough to make me happy. It's weird. Just being next to you fills me with warmth. Here, take my hand... Yup. I can feel the warmth of your body spreading through me. You ARE like the sun. I know you'll keep me safe and warm if I just stay with you... The world...feels like it's coming apart. And I'm going to wake up soon. So I hope that I can remember you <player>... Even after I wake up.
I can't remember your name when I wake up. It's SO frustrating! I always remember that I met somebody but not who. In Nifl, it's always snowing...and the sun doesn't come out very often. Just seeing the sun makes me happy. And when I see you, I'm as happy as if I'd seen the sun. Hee-hee. Why don't I do somewhere warm? Hmm... You're right. I would like to go somewhere sunny. I read about a tropical island once in a book... I'd like to go lots of places. I want to travel to different realms and meet all kinds of people! Right now, Nifl and Múspell are at war. But there must be someone in Múspell who I could make friends with. I wish people could just get along. I wish everyone could live without a care... You do too, don't you? We could live lives of happiness—all of us. That's what I want.
Tell me what to do, <player>... My brother and sister keep trying to convince me things wil be OK, but I'm worried. You're trying to cheer me up, aren't you? Thanks. You asked me if I wanted to go somewhere warm. I remembered that even after I woke up... I already have somewhere warm...my home. My family. My mother, Gunnthrá, Fjorm, and Hríd... Even if we're buried in snow, I'll still have that warmth inside of me as long as we're together. And I'd like to be with you too. In real life, I mean. Not just in a dream. Maybe I will be able to meet you. I hope it's soon. I'll be able to introduce you to everyone. They all mean so much to me... Promise me that we'll meet one day. And when we do...we'll smile. Together. OK?

This sensation...it's so strange. Am I dreaming? Who's there? That hood... You're the same person who appeared in Ylgr's dream, aren't you? Dream though this may be, this meeting may be significant. I am Hríd, Prince of Nifl. Would you tell me you name? So it's <player>, is it? This may be our first meeting, yet you are so familiar to me... I feel there must be some connection between us... Yes, I feel I already know you. You seem to know me!
Hello, <player>. It seems that dreams must be our only meeting place. It's strange—I can't recall a thing about you when I wake. But when I dream, it all comes rushing back. It seems I lack my sister Gunnthrá's power over dreams. I apologize if I was curt with you before. My country is heading for calamity. I am ill at ease. You seem so calm. Perhaps you realm does not know war... No, I see that I am wrong. You do know the way of battle. No matter the world, it seems that no one can escape conflict. The people of Nifl, my realm...they do not stoke the flames of war. You see, we do not seek conflict—because we are not willing to lose a single life. Not one.
It has been some time since we last spoke, <player>. It's strange...you appear to me when I am troubled. King Surtr of Múspell has invaded. I am unsure if Nifl has the power to stop him. I carry the weight of it all—the future of Nifl and that of my family. In truth, I do not believe we have the power to stop Surtr, no matter how we prepare. When I wake, I will go back to my responsibilities. I must keep morale high. It is only here that I can reveal my misgivings about our chances. When I am with you, I cannot keep my emotions contained. Is it because this is a dream? Or do you draw them out of me? There must be some reason that you have appeared before me. Whatever that reason is, I have no doubt that Nifl's fate hinges on it.
Yet again we meet, <player>. I am glad of it. This may be the last time we can meet like this. Surtr has invaded. Tomorrow, I head to the battlefield. The difference in power between our forces is stark. But if we can strike Surtr down, Nifl may survive... Even if it means my life, I intend to defeat that man. I would gladly give my life to protect the people of Nifl. Everything is in motion... I have given Fjorm Leiptr, the Lance of Ice. Should something happen to me, my sisters are prepared to lead Nifl. You're shaking your head... Don't throw your life away, you say? But what if I have no choice? I must protect my family. To do that, I would die without hesitation. If we join our strength, then none of us need die? You have a point. Till now, I have only thought about how I might protect them...but that is not the only path. Thank you, <player>. You have eased my fears. Because the Kingdom of Nifl must continue, I need to survive. I hope that we may meet one day, out there in the world. The possibility may be remote, but...if I do meet you amid the flames of battle, lend me your strength. I say this though I am certain I will forget it once I wake... Some part of me, deep in my soul, will recall these moments. I very much want to believe that. I will do my utmost to survive, as you ask. And my sisters and I will clear a path for Nifl's future.

Gunnthrá: Voice of Dreams

C rank B rank A rank S rank
Fjorm: Gunnthrá...tonight is the night, isn't it? For the Rite of Dreams...
Gunnthrá: Yes. I have gone to the temple and offered my prayers to Nifl, the dragon of ice.
Ylgr: I really want to know about this person you're going to meet in your dream... When I wake up, I forget almost everything! But with your powers, you should be able to remember. I'm jealous! That sounds wonderful...
Hríd: The Rite of Dreams has always been connected to the fate of Nifl... I hope that you learn much that may help us.
Ylgr: Good luck!
Gunnthrá: Thank you, Ylgr. Perhaps the person you have been speaking to is the same person I am fated to meet...
Fjorm: I will pray for your success, my sister.
Gunnthrá: Thank you, Fjorm. I look forward to this meeting...with the one my fate is bound to.
I...where am I? This realm... Oh! It's you. I am so very pleased to meet you. I am the eldest princess of Nifl. My name is Gunnthrá. Thanks to a very ancient rite...I am able to speak to you in dreams. This is my dream...but it is also your dream, isn't it? You're somewhere totally different than I am, aren't you? It's not Nifl. I can see you so clearly... The features if your face, the clothes you wear... I can see it all. I must thank you. You heard my call, and you responded. From now on, no one else will appear in my dreams... Ah...fading... We...must part... Will...again...
There you are... I had so hoped we would meet again in our dreams. I can sense a great power in you. It's very different than any in Nifl. We're speaking together now...but that doesn't mean our "now" is the same... Past, present, and future... You can speak to me across time, or so I believe. Right now, our kingdom, Nifl, is in great peril. But you know our fate, don't you? If you can help me make that future a good one... Well, I would give anything for that. I would entrust our very fate to you. Please, lead them all—everyone I care about. My brither, my sisters, my mother... Please. That is what I would ask of you. Please...bring light... Nifl...
How may times have we met in dreams in like this? To you, I am one of many who vies for your attention from all the worlds... And yet among thousands, you chose me. I cling to that shining thread, that miraculous possibility that binds us together. We will meet here one day, in Nifl. To prepare for that day, I need your name, which will be inscribed in our fates. It's <player>? Yes, <player>... I will not forget you name. We are tied together, you and I. When we meet, I will give you all that I have to give, and you will clear the path to the future for us. That is what I believe. No matter what awaits me...I look forward to the day we can finally meet, <player>.

C rank B rank A rank S rank
Fjorm: Ah... Aagh! So hot...burning... Aaagh! An ocean of flames? Where am I?
Surtr: Hah-hah-hah! Weaklings, all of you, fit only to burn!
Hríd: Guh!
Gunnthrá: Aah!
Ylgr: Hríd! Gunnthrá! Fjorm! Help!
Fjorm: Ylgr? Hríd, Gunnthrá! Where are you?
Surtr: Hah-hah-hah! Feel my flames devour you...devour your very souls!
Fjorm: How can you be so cruel? To laugh in the faces of your victims! Are you a man or a devil?
Surtr: The weak are slaughtered. That is the proper order. It is your turn to burn! I will char your bones till they are ash!
Sharena: No you don't!
Anna: Not of we can help it!
Fjorm: Who are—
Alfonse: We must save Princess Fjorm! Your orders, <player>?
Fjorm: You're here...to save me? Just who are you? Who...
Fjorm: Can we talk, Ylgr?
Ylgr: Sure thing, Fjorm. Do you need something? Whatever it is, just let me know.
Fjorm: I want to ask you about that dream you mentioned.
Ylgr: My mysterious stranger?
Fjorm: Yes, exactly. You said they were with us in the dream. I want to know who they are.
Ylgr: We've talked many times in my dreams...but when I wake up, I can never remember anything. Since that first dream we've spoken several times. But I still have no idea who I'm talking to! Who do you want to know? Did you have a dream too?
Fjorm: Yes, I did. It was very strange. And I can barely remember a thing about it... Someone saved me from terrible danger. That's really all I can remember.
Ylgr: That sounds scary! If you like, I can sleep with you tonight. That should help.
Fjorm: I appreciate the offer, Sister, but I think I shall be fine.
Ylgr: Maybe your mysterious stranger and my mysterious stranger...are the same!
Fjorm: Yes... Gunnthrá has more power over dreams than we do. Maybe she knows this person's identity. Their fate may be closely twined with that of Nifl.
Fjorm: So you've been having unusual dreams too?
Hríd: I have. In them, I'm deep in discussion with...someone. About the future of Nifl, I believe. But when I wake...I cannot remember a word. It all disappears, as if into mist...
Fjorm: It's the same with me. I feel that these dreams are important, but I can't recall them...
Hríd: I asked Gunnthrá about this. She believes we may possess a fragment of her power over dreams. The dreams she believes, may offer hints of Nifl's future.
Fjorm: So it stands to reason that the person we meet is important to the fate of Nifl. Múspell may invade any day now. Perhaps as soon as tomorrow. The dreams may be a warning of imminent crisis.
Hríd: Dreams are dreams. They cannot change reality. We can ponder their significance, but... We have no choice but to prepare for battle here, in the real world.
Fjorm: You're right, of course. It is our job to secure the future of Nifl and its people.
Fjorm: I feel...strange. Am I dreaming? I...can remember you. Yes, know you—<player>! Tell me—what connection do you have to the future of Nifl? Will we meet one day?
Alfonse: Yes. You will meet.
Fjorm: I remember you! I remember all of you... You saved me once—in a dream.
Anna: Princess Fjorm, the road ahead is full of both greetings and partings.
Sharena: And we may not be able to see the future from where we stand now.
Fjorm: What are you trying to tell me—tell us?
Alfonse: The future has not been written. We cannot yet know how our paths will cross.
Anna: There is one thing that is certain, however. We are your allies. No matter what happens, do not give up.
Sharena: When we finally meet, we will give you all of the help we can. Please don't forget that!
Fjorm: These dreams...they are not nightmares. It seems that you have brought me allies and that you will bring me more... Thank you, <player>. Even if fate dictates that Múspell's fury will ravage this land...I will not lose heart. If I wake now, I will surely forget this dream. But your words will remain a part of me. I will not bend. I will stand up to fate and move forward on my path. I have to believe that hope exists, even if I must find it beyond the snow-dusted plains of my home...
