Talents
4Writing with Feeling
Horla's "Strike" and "Defend" Command Cards are treated as Psalms.
When Horla's Command Cards trigger their Leap Effect, she enters the emotion state associated with that Psalm. Horla can only have one emotion state active at a time, and triggering a different Psalm's Leap Effect will change the emotion state to the corresponding emotion. Each emotion has a team-wide passive buff that is active while Horla remains in that emotion. Each emotion state enhances a different effect of Horla's Exalt. The emotion state persists throughout the exploration.
For every 1% Death Resistance Horla has, the passive effect value of Horla's current emotion state +0.1% of the original value.Madness Omen

Story
5Basic Information
A rose thorn tears the page of the poem and leaves a colorless smear of blood. The smell of alcohol drifts and lingers; invisible flames spread in every direction.
Inside that fire, Horla holds the last canto in her hands, writing a silent footnote to the end of the genius poet who hid herself away in the greenhouse.

Story: I
At the beginning of A.F. 3@2, during the renovation of the city named Cité, an anomaly was discovered in a fire-damaged garden: ashes climbed the burnt walls of the greenhouse like vines, and the ash roses blooming on the vines shimmered with a metallic hue.
Following the trail of the vines, an investigator from Mythag University retrieved this Silver. The moment she touched the silver powder, her fingertips were scorched black without any pain, but tears inexplicably rolled down her cheeks.
The weeping came without reason and dissipated into the ashes in an instant.

Story: II
There is a strange magic about Horla. Anyone at the university with a love of poetry and beauty is drawn to her without meaning to be, and gathers wherever she is.
She does not like to publish her poems, but the students of Mythag still find ways to get hold of a line here, a fragment there. Whatever comes off her pen sweeps the campus within days.
At first light someone recites her words softly beneath the bell tower; at dusk Nymphaea sits on a bench in Mythag Square, turning the pages of her collection; after nightfall students crowd into the auditorium to rehearse the verses she wrote.
Yet however warmly she is invited, Horla rarely spares these gatherings a look, let alone attends one. The mournful recitations, the occasions that end in tears, they leave her at a loss.
"Have I spread more sorrow again?"

Story: III
This is a city of flowers and poetry. Here a tender love poem is worth a bunch of freshly cut roses, or a week's bread for a family of three. And when a masterpiece appears out of nowhere, it means some genius poet is about to be famous.
She had once been a gardener, her days spent among fertilizer and dead cuttings. Now she savored the flattery and adoration her elegant verses brought her. She gave up the garden entirely, even locked the greenhouse and let no one set foot inside it.
When people asked, all she would say was that her "inspiration" was kept in there.
They were born to nothing, the children of servants loyal to the nobility. When the Constante Federation was founded and the old aristocracy was purged, they lost their place in the world along with it.
One of them had been a lady's maid, raised at her mistress's side, and she showed a gift for words very early, but what business did a servant have with poetry?
The world around them was changing by the day, and a talent for verse could not keep a girl alive. All of it left her more out of place, more melancholy, more sorrowful.
Then the gardener held out her hand, that hand torn open by thorns, and gave her a garden. In that tiny kingdom the two of them spent the happiest days of their lives.
The quiet life began to change with a poem the gardener received.
Her friend's talent was so moving. She wanted more people to see this poem written for her.
The shy, melancholy friend refused to sign it, so the gardener put her own name at the bottom, "If it gets published, they'll need a name to send the money to."
The gardener began to change with that first payment.
She could not understand how she had gone, so suddenly, from protector to burden.
She could not understand why her friend collected all the love and all the praise without effort, while her own labor counted for nothing against such talent.
Her head clouded by wanting and envy, she began using her friend's trust to coax the poems out of her. There was no going back from a lie like that. The seed had been in the gardener's heart from the beginning; it sprouted as the genius poet's name spread, and it budded at a street interview, devoted admirers pressed her about the secret, aching feelings hidden in the verses, and the gardener, who could not read the poems at all, broke into a sweat and fled. Late that night she came back to the greenhouse, and there, under her friend's worried look, the flower of panic opened.
After a fire that shocked all of Cité, the genius poet announced she would write no more, and vanished with the wealth and fame she had won in so little time.

- Enlighten: Flourish
- I often feel as though I exist in the space between life and death. Wherever I am, melancholy spreads like a tide, and tragedies unfold, one after another. Even so, would you still wish for me to write a poem for you? Hmm... perhaps you deserve the sweetest one...
- Affinity: I

- I almost forgot... What kind of flowers bloom in Cité this season?
- Chat: About Her Pain
- The beauty of blooming flowers is matched by the sadness of their withering. No matter how many times I feel sorrow, I cannot help but stop and mourn for them. If I were to ignore them out of fear of pain, how sad these flowers would be...
- Chat: About Her Poems
- Poetry and flowers are probably the same thing, are they not? Both are fleeting yet eternal. In this boundless world, they capture the most unforgettable moments in a small space... I think everyone has fallen silent for a poem, just as they pause to admire a flower's bloom.
- Chat: About Past Memories
- In the Keygrave, I saw your name on one of the tombstones... The memories of life were painful, but I never intended to forget them. For the Keeper, those lost memories must be equally precious, yes?
- Chat: About the Keeper - 1
- Your presence has rekindled the ink in my pen, allowing it to flow once more like a gentle stream. I will continue to compose poetry for your story.
- Chat: About the Keeper - 2
- I wrote a new poem yesterday, but haven't shown it to anyone. It's not very good, but... {Male=Mr.,Female=Miss} Keeper, would you be willing to take a look at it?
