You stand in the Haligtree arena. You see Malenia, Blade of Miquella, sitting in her throne. She has her helmet taken off. Her arm gently rests on the tree. She rises, speaking calmly. "Long ago, the Scarlet Rot infested my body. Took my senses, one by one." Her voice is sweet yet intimidating. "Warrior after mage after champion came to face me, yet none felled me." Malenia slowly turns to you, unsheathing her sword. "I am Malenia. Blade of Miquella." She lowers her blade to her side. "Now, tell me. Why are you here?"
