One windy day, Luka found himself lying under a giant banyan tree, contemplating about life. He had forgot how he got here, and he had forgot where he should be going. His purpose was unclear but he sure know his soul yearns to do something.
Suddenly, the intertwining trunk of the tree unravels and a bright light shines from within. A figure emerges from the light, it is a maiden fair like no one; She was the goddess of love and life, Elphainye-i. Luka was astounded, but Elphainye-i greeted him like an old friend.
She requested for them to sit and have a chat. She said that she have been watching him for quite sometime but now she is sure that he is the perfect avatar for her: he is gentle, caring, and holds a deep value for life and connections between them. With the opportunity laid before him, fire filled Luka’s heart once more. The two agreed on a pact. Luca would find his purpose once more and Elphainye-i would guide him in exchange of being her connection to the mortal world and help her in spreading love.
Luka then set for adventure; He encountered monsters, traders, and just outright weird humans. Sometimes, he would hear Elphainye-i whisper something in the wind or shape out something in the earth and sky, either something really vague or something clearly out of frustration from his misadventures. The relationship of the goddess and the hero was uncertain as he perceive a map. Nonetheless, one thing is clear, they were bounded by love.

Dear Diary,
Yey! I got featured in the newspaper! I bet my goddess is really proud of me… aren’t you, Luminous one? Well, at least I AM proud of myself. I didn’t exactly get what the news said but since it’s about me, I assume it’s something great. Anyhow… back to more great feats! And then maybe I can get featured in the news again! and this time… along with Koda!
My hair looks stunning today,
Luka Magne

Dear Diary,
Finally managed to gather 250 gold bricks for my goddess’ temple! That means that I’m um… 25? … yes! 25% complete with my construction! I found a pot of 800 gold coins near the temple too! Wow! seems like we’re already gathering followers! My goddess must’ve been so happy and proud of me! Come on My Goddess, don’t be shy, say it.
I’m getting more beer!,

Dear Diary,
I received a mail from someone named… “The Princess Zelda”?…
It says she’s pleased to meet me as a friends yada yada yada…
Oh, Great One! This is your doing, isn’t it?! You’re doing the whole girlfriend search for me… how sweet! Looks like being the hero of the goddess of love and life is a good thing after all!
However, why do I feel like I’ve heard the name “Princess Zelda” somewhere before? And the letter also mentioned her goddess is the “Triforce 0f Wisdom”?
Hmmmm… sounds familiar…
Eh- Maybe I met her on a tavern party before or something.
Anyways, thanks again, Luminous One!
The letter disappeared from my inventory after reading it,

Dear Diary,
Is it just me or there’s a lot of voices up there today, My Goddess?
There was a thunderstorm at Godville today and every rumble of thunder sounds like a a mumbling of a thousand voices.
I’m concerned ‘cause I’m pretty sure somewhere there I heard: “From Elphainye-i, Accepted!”. Do gods and goddess do duels as well? Do you have like a… godly arena? or are you… oh no! Are you selling me, my goddess?! I know I’ve had my failures but please don’t auction me and buy yourself a new hero!
I’ll try dying less!,

Dear Diary,
Hello goddess? Are you mad at me? I mean… you probably are but.. you know… this is me, I can’t help it. You haven’t been speaking that much in a long while now… what happened? Oh no! Is my faith starting to get weak?! Or … do I just need to get my ears cleaned?
I’ll visit the bath house and wash my ears!,

Dearest DIARY!,
I finally got the thousandth golden brick for my goddess’ temple! Ha, now I can finally finish up those plans. Though, I don’t know how I managed to fit an entire architectural plan of a temple within a thousand bricks but… oh well. It’s done, and my goddess will be proud! That’s what matters.
I can feel her influencing me more than usual today with my feats. I guess she must’ve been really excited about that temple… aren’t you Divine one? hehehe. And take this: I built the temple under a year as a chosen! only 245 days! HA! Beat that one hero who boasted his feats in a bar last week!
Anyways, I’m very much fulfilled! I have finally completed my quest as a chosen…. or have I? wait.. Is there more after this? Divine one?
Nevermind, Let’s get to work!,

Dear Diary,
I finally decided to let Pilot go… I MISS HIM ALREADY! :(
First Koda, now Pilot… Sigh… Why can’t my pets stop dying?
I very much still love Pilot, he was with me longer (And he undeniably looks cooler) but I realized after his “death”, He is better off without me. With me, tied to my silly antics, he has very little room for growth. Maybe, just maybe, he’ll be able to grow a better Biowolf out there in the wild. ’Till we meet again, Pilot. I wish us best of both ways!
I want an Inner Demon next!,

Dear Diary,
Ooooh yeah! Being in the arena again after a long while is so exhilarating!
That’s a word, right? exhilarating? ANYWAYS! I’m feeling my goddess’ presence more lately, poems and whatnot, it’s really comforting to have her guidance again….. yes, Luminous One, I am not lying. I AM happy to feel you more in my life again!…
So can you like… magic like a couple’a barrel o beers for me tonight? or do I need to go to another deity for that kinda stuff?
I’m parched… and shakin’!,
