Nyx: *sigh* It's not here either. I was sure I'd find it here...
Avatar: What's wrong, Nyx? You look upset.
Nyx: Avatar...it's not important.
Avatar: It looks important enough to you. If there's any way I can help, just tell me.
Nyx: That's very kind of you. But if you really want to help, you can mind your business and stay out of my problems.
Avatar: Ah, er...I'm sorry. I didn't mean to pry.
Nyx: No harm done. You're young enough that I expect you can't help it.
Avatar: Me? Young? Unless I miss my guess, I'm clearly older than you.
Nyx: Are you through speaking?
Avatar: Y-yes...
Nyx: ...Perhaps I was too harsh. I know your intentions were good. But when a LADY has a secret to keep, don't go digging for answers. Be mindful of that in the future.
Avatar: Uh...understood.
Nyx: Good. Now go.

Nyx: Nothing! How does this volume not contain what I'm looking for...?
Avatar: What ARE you looking for, exactly?
Nyx: Avatar...didn't I tell you not to pry into a lady's secrets?
Avatar: Yes, I remember something like that. But you can't expect me to turn a blind eye to a friend in need.
Nyx: A friend, hm?
Avatar: If you still insist that I leave, then I will.
Nyx: Hmhm... Ah, to be young again.
Avatar: What?
Nyx: Since you insist, I'll tell you. I'm searching for an artifact mirror. It's an ancient, sacred treasure, imbued with the power of the gods. It's rumored to reflect only the truth. And that's all I'll say about it.
Avatar: See, that wasn't so hard. You'll be the first to know if I come across any mystic-looking mirrors. On a different subject, though...
Nyx: Yes?
Avatar: You keep implying that I'm younger than you. But you seem to still be in your adolescence, at most.
Nyx: ... So you don't know.
Avatar: Know what?
Nyx: *sigh* I suppose you're bound to find out sooner or later. I may look young, but in truth, I'm much older than you.
Avatar: What?
Nyx: As a result of a serious error I made in my youth, I'm stuck in this form. I haven't physically aged in many years, but mentally I'm quite old. If only I could see my true form...
Avatar: Oh, I see now.
Nyx: Yes. That's why I seek the artifact mirror. It alone can show me what I'm meant to look like at this age. Now you understand?
Avatar: Y-yes, that explains a lot. Thank you for sharing, Nyx.

Nyx: Nayah hortek tumlah turlah escheh... Haa!
Avatar: Nyx! What is this?! Are you casting a spell on yourself?!
Nyx: There's no harm in it. Try as I might, I can't find the artifact mirror. So I thought I'd try to break the curse directly.
Avatar: The curse?
Nyx: Yes. Do you remember how I told you that I stopped aging physically long ago? It is because I was cursed.
Avatar: I see. How did this happen?
Nyx: I showed a gift for magic at a young age. I was known by many as a prodigy. Such was my downfall. I became carried away in my inexperience and lost control of my magic. It backfired, and I have been stuck in this form since.
Avatar: I never knew of this...
Nyx: But while my body stopped changing, my mind and soul grew older. I was no longer seen as a prodigy but as a monster. And I don't blame those who saw me that way. That's what I am.
Avatar: No, you aren't! I've never thought of you that way.
Nyx: Indeed?
Avatar: Not once! If I thought you were a monster, we wouldn't be having this conversation.
Nyx: ...I suppose not.
Avatar: You're an important member of our force. And you've only become more so as I get to know you better.
Nyx: Avatar, I...
Avatar: I'm glad you opened up to me. I'm thrilled to finally get to know you better. I've been searching for that artifact mirror, too, but... Details have been hard to come by. Still, I'll keep trying!
Nyx: Thank you. But even if you don't find the mirror, I think I'll be all right. It's enough to know someone cares sufficiently that they'd make the effort.
Avatar: That's true... But even so, it would be better to find it, wouldn't you say? I won't give up. Just give me some time and have faith.
Nyx: Very well. I'll keep my expectations low, but who knows? You're so young...so ambitious, and so fearless. Though I am your elder, who's to say you're not the more mature of us?
