"G? Like Goddess? That could an a lot of things..."
"Hm, oh dear... my mind isn’t what it used to be. So much has happened. I have these faint mories of events, but the more I try to recall them, the worse it becos. It’s as if sothing is stopping ."
"Maybe you’re suffering from so kind of dentia."
"No... I am a goddess; I don’t go through such things."
"G-Goddess?!"
"Ah... oh, yes, that is sothing I am sure of!"
"And why are you in my soul?!"
"I don’t know!"
"Ahhh!"
"Ahhh!"
Both ladies panicked in the sa way, almost as if they were twin sisters. Of course, the giantess was... a giantess, so she was massive, and Elayne didn’t realize how in sync they seed, strange as that was.
"H-How do you not know that, miss giantess?" Elayne asked. "You know that I... died, right? So I was wondering why you were even here. My soul was damaged... Yaga said the soul I have might only be a fragnt of my original soul. Maybe I don’t rember you?"
"Eh? Ah, so that’s what happened," the giantess said. "Hmmm, maybe I lost mories from that, but it also kind of woke up..."
"...What do you an?" Elayne asked.
"I... I wasn’t supposed to be here or awake," the giantess muttered. "I don’t know why... but that’s how it is... I..."
"Huh?" Elayne walked closer. "It’s okay. Are you sad? It’s fine, you can be yourself with . I don’t know why you’re here, but I think you’re not a bad person—I would’ve known already."
"Uhh... thank you... you’re so kind," the giantess smiled, wiping her tears. "It’s just... you said you died? That’s so sad..."
"Yeah, I died and fell to the Netherworld," Elayne said. "It’s been a big rollercoaster since then."
"What’s a rollercoaster?" the giantess asked.
"I an... it’s been constantly getting crazier," Elayne explained.
"Oh... that’s terrible, I’m so sorry," the giantess apologized.
"So you said you woke up?" Elayne asked.
"Ah yes...! I was sleeping," said the giantess. "And then out of nowhere the sky split open and the world around shook. I ended up shattering; I split into three pieces. When that happened, we all woke up..."
"Eh?" Elayne was even more confused. "S-So you woke up when my soul shattered and... you were divided? So the other pieces are lost? Maybe the Demon King of Death has them..."
"Um, I can at least feel that there’s another fragnt inside this world," said the giantess. "Or well, this realm...? Wait, you said it was your soul? I suppose your soul then."
"Another? So the third is missing?" Elayne asked.
"Yes..." the giantess nodded. "Without reuniting with my fragnts, I cannot beco complete. I am missing mories and many other things. But also... I feel like I shouldn’t be awake right now."
"No? Why not? What do you an?" Elayne asked.
"It’s complicated. I have a feeling that I beca soone else," she said. "But when that thing happened, it was as if that soone else fractured, separating from the new ."
"...?!" Elayne was really confused. "A-Are you part of then? But how? I don’t know you..."
"Well, neither," she sighed. "I... don’t really know, I’m sorry."
"It’s fine..." Elayne said. "So, I’ve had you inside my soul this entire ti, huh... And you beca soone else... then stopped being that soone else and separated yourself? Um, isn’t that reincarnation?"
"Is it?" the giantess wondered, fidgeting with her fingers.
"Hmmm..." Elayne rubbed her chin. "This is too ridiculous to be true, but maybe you’re... ?"
"Eh?" the giantess tilted her head. "No way, I don’t even look like you!"
"Right, maybe you’re related to Gardenia in so way," Elayne said.
"Gardenia! I... no, I don’t recognize that na," said the giantess.
"Hm, so you’re not related to her... Right, Gardenia was made by Lady Verdant," Elayne nodded. "Then you’re an unknown Nature Spirit of so sort that has been dwelling in my soul for a while, and I had no idea... Wait, are you Yggdrasil? Like the ancient one?"
"No," the giantess shook her head. "Do I look like a tree to you...?"
"I guess you’re more like a mountain..." Elayne nodded. "So you may or may not be my... my previous life? No way, that sounds too strange. It doesn’t make sense."
"Yeah, it really doesn’t," said the giantess. "Perhaps what I rember is jumbled, and what I believe based on these fragnts might not be the factual truth."
"Huh, that’s also possible," Elayne nodded. "But you were affected when my soul shattered, and this woke you up. So you were slumbering after becoming soone else... I know reincarnation is real, but I never imagined I would et soone who might have been in the past like this..."
"I don’t know if that’s true... I don’t want to believe it..." the giantess muttered.
"Why?" Elayne felt slightly offended.
"Because you’re so small," said the giantess. "And I like being big."
"Ah, well, that’s what cos with being human," Elayne answered with a bitter smile. "Hm, anyway, let’s sum things up."
"Hm," the giantess nodded.
Elayne grabbed a piece of wood from the giantess’ many trees and started writing on it, quickly listing everything she had learned:
She was inside Elayne’s soul and part of it.
When Elayne died and her soul shattered, she was also shattered into three fragnts.
Each fragnt has missing mories; only by reuniting will they regain their full mories.
They were slumbering because they "beca soone else," possibly Elayne, though the giantess denies it even though it makes the most sense.
The giantess has faint mories of people and places she cannot recognize, and felt sorrow when she heard a certain titan had died.
Of the three fragnts, two are inside Elayne’s soul, and the other is likely in the Demon King of Death’s hands.
"Okay, with all of this we’ve gathered, I can say there’s a good chance that... uh, I might be your reincarnation," Elayne muttered, blushing.
"Eeeeh?!" the giantess also seed flustered. "N-No way..."
"Hey, it’s not like I wanted this to be the case..." Elayne rolled her eyes. "Well, we might discover the truth one day, so shouldn’t we cooperate and beco friends? Whether I am your reincarnation or not, that shouldn’t stop us from becoming friends."
"That’s not wrong either!" the giantess nodded. "Okay! I don’t mind becoming your friend, Elayne, you’re so nice."
The giantess leaned down and kissed Elayne’s head with her giant lips made of dirt, stone, grass, and flowers, leaving Elayne covered in all of it.
"A-Ahahah, I appreciate it," Elayne giggled awkwardly.
