eizen leaving his sister behind in the mountain to go on a journey around the world to find a cure for the reaper's curse so they can actually be together. edna leaving her brother behind in the mountain to go on a journey around the world to find a cure for his dragonhood so they can actually be together. both of their original goals coming to an end after several centuries once they come to the hopeless conclusion that there is no such a cure anywhere in the world*. both siblings having to come to terms in different moments with the fact that their time together has come to an end, that it came to an end a long time ago, while the other sibling is left unaware of the resolution they have come to. pain
#*'there's no way to return a dragon back to normal' and 'there's no way to eliminate the reaper's curse'#are both left with a very small 'what-if' question hanging however#'but if we scour the world we might be able to find another way' 'yeah. but heldalf ain't gonna wait for us'#and 'too bad this is our only choice before we fight heldalf [because we might not make it out alive]'#vs#'and you didn't find anything there [in the far continent]? ... to help with your curse?'#'i didn't even look (...) eventually i just got tired of fighting back'#and 'by devouring the heart of a white-horned dragon a malak's blessing will be lost'#i'd dare say there's a parallel there too and that edna was also tired of fighting#zestbers talk#very On Brand™ btw for the scriptwriter that published a side story for x2 just to reveal the soulbridge didn't need a human sacrifice#and going by my flimsy memories of the ds version of hearts#i'm pretty sure it also doesn't explore whether a certain someone's fate is truly hopeless and cannot be saved from the bleaching#... localizated as calcification iirc?#there's a pattern here#q
