Could she really only stay here forever, sinking into oblivion?
Before the Difference Engine, Elliot gritted his teeth as well.
Was his Believer doomed to remain trapped in Moonheart like this?
There had to be a way. Think carefully!
Elliot pressed his hands against the console, rapidly scanning its entire surface.
As he watched Elsa's Card alternate between madness and recovery, an idea suddenly struck him. He stopped trying to make her Card return and instead inserted it into the [Sacrifice] slot.
He might not be able to bring Elsa back, but if he activated Sacrifice and offered this [Honey], he should be able to give her quite a few points.
Every time she advanced a rank, she could choose a Talent. She might just get a teleportation Talent and teleport straight out of Moonheart!
"Sacrifice?!"
Submerged in the Honey, Elsa shuddered violently and widened her eyes. Realizing what the Great Being wanted her to do, she felt a sliver of hope rise in her heart again.
But she could not do it.
Elsa was not a character Elliot could control directly, so he could not directly make her draw the Ritual runes.
He could indeed order Elsa to draw them herself, but in her current state, she simply could not manage it.
Every minute, every second, Elsa endured the pain of madness.
She could barely control her own flesh, let alone perform delicate work like drawing a Ritual.
Even without the effects of madness, Elsa lacked the ability to draw a Ritual freehand.
Those on the [Justice] Path could draw Rituals freehand because they could memorize every detail in Rationality Mode and control their bodies perfectly.
Those on the [Indomitability] Path could do so because of their mechanical modifications; their Mechanical Arms possessed sufficient precision.
Elsa had neither.
