You are allowed rest, you are allowed peace.
Contains: Comfort, Advice
It may just be me, but throughout The Arcana game (no spoilers) Muriel goes from being extremely quiet and not used to talking to more eloquent the longer time he spends with the MC, especially if you're romancing him. I feel like Muriel is someone who spends most of his time being introspective, but now, in this audio, he feels confident enough to share the things that he thinks about/believes. I liked playing with a more talkative Muriel, especially on a topic that I think it very applicable to the game, as well as real life. I hope you all enjoy!
~Audio Transcript Below~
Muriel: Take a moment......there's no need right now to hurry.......
*pause*
We can only move so quickly......we can only mobilize our efforts so much.....there is no point in running yourself ragged trying to go faster and do more than is possible in the moment......
Allow yourself a moment of peace..........
*pause*
You are allowed to exist in a world where you aren't constantly hounded to be the savior of everything.......
You are allowed rest......
*pause*
*sighs*
I understand what you mean.....
What we're doing here in Vesuvia.....in front of and behind the scenes.......we are attempting to bring about peace.......
There are times when.....peace isn't a current option......but an ideal......a motivator........
Right now.....broad sweeping.....all encompassing peace.....isn't feasible.......
I know that........
*pause*
When I.....was a Gladiator.....all I wanted.....was peace........not to....fight anymore......not to be entangled in the politics of this country......I was content to go into the forest and never have to confront another person again.......
But when you came......when you became involved with Asra and....everything else going on in Vesuvia......
When I saw the determination that you had......coupled with the kindness and vulnerability you constantly show everyone around you with.......seemingly minimal fear.......
I realized that there is a time and a place where.......you must fight for your peace......however that fight may look......
*pause*
However........I also believe that there is no point in trying to do more than you can at any given moment. There are some days, hours, minutes where you physically and mentally can do more......but you must recognize that it's not sustainable......and no one expects you to kill yourself in this.....
And if there are....they aren't people you should be listening to......
At least.....in my opinion.......
Some days you cannot do as much as you plan.....as much as you wish......and that's.....alright.......
I know it's hard to believe......but you are allowed to rest.....you are allowed to have moments where you are not consumed in ideas of work and.....productivity....and......problem solving......you are allowed to experience life without them and not feel guilty about it.....
*pause*
I know.....it's easier said than done.......
I've come to these conclusions through.....years of dwelling on them.......also......you.......
*pause*
How are you supposed to do that?
Well.......
You can find peace in the simple ordinary things........for those are more attainable for the days where everything feels like it's going wrong.....or when you're feeling overwhelmed by the idea that you need to.......do.........
Take a moment to stand outside and take a deep breath and just.....exist in that moment.......
Take joy in the moments of rest.......
*pause*
I'm not saying that it isn't hard........what I'm saying is to try.......
*long pause*
What helps me?
*inhales*
Living out in the forest.......it brings me peace.........as does Inanna.......
Even you........
*pause*
Just existing with you.......brings me peace......even though I do worry for you......
I don't care about just my own peace......I care about your peace......your memories.....your life......
I care about....every aspect of you......and I want to see you mired in strife as little as possible......
But for when peace is not an option......and the only way through is by struggle, or by fighting.......then I will be there......to do as much as I possibly can......to help make sure that you........get the peace that you deserve........
You are worth it to me........
*pause*
You don't understand how much you give to others, do you? Whether intentional or not.......
I'm here.....and who I am today because of you.......that, I firmly believe........
You deserve it..........you are allowed the joy and the respite that you give to others.......
As a person.....no matter how important you might be and how many responsibilities that you have.....you're allowed .......
And I'll be right here.....to be sure that you get it........
