Dusk of Oolacile

Lore

Dusk is a princess-sorceress from the long fallen land of Oolacile.

At some point after the destruction of her home town, Oolacile, she was trapped in a Golden Crystal Golem. Since the Crystal Golems are the results of Seath the Scaleless's experiments, it is likely that he is responsible for Dusk's imprisonment.

When the Chosen Undead visits Oolacile in the past, Oolacile is rescued by the Undead after defeating Manus. She is mentally scarred and incoherent from her experience and when the Undead visits her in the Darkroot Basin after defeating Manus, she mentions being captured and being subsequently rescued, by someone she only faintly remembers and implies it being either Artorias or the player, but she has very little recollection of what happened.

• Initial meeting (after you kill the Golden Crystal Golem):

[…] I am Dusk of Oolacile. I cometh from an age long before thine… I can not stay here for long.
So, before i disappear, allow me to ask one thing. My home, Oolacile, is the home of ancient sorceries.
My hope is to pass this profound knowledge to thee, with thine approval.

• Talking:

For a very long time, I was trapped within the Crystal Golem.
From my home I was taken, and banish'd to a plane of distortion.
It was there, that thou came to my rescue. Long after I had relinquished all hope.
So gleeful was I, my faith reneweth.

The sorceries of Oolacile differ from the magic of thine age.
It is difficult to explain… Oolacile sorceries are, what doth one say?
They are somewhat… of an approximation.
Thine sorceries are more straight forward, negating all but thy self.
Dost thou not find some fascination in these discrepancies?

My home of Oolacile was reduced to ashes, long ago, in my time. I have been alone ever since…
But to be summon's thus, and to be of service to thee… It is… most rewarding…
Oh, forgive me, such a long past time is none of thine concern…

• Talking (after defeating Manus):

This may strike thine ear as somewhat peculiar, but…
Long ago, in my homeland of Oolacile, I was beset by a creature of the Abyss.
I would have perished then, were it not for the great knight Artorias.
In truth, I saw little of what transpired, for mine senses were already fled!
But even still, there was something about Artorias… A certain balance of the humours…
…That quite perfectly fits your semblance. Heavens, could it be that…
Oh, dear me. That was Oolacile, many centuries ago. Please excuse my fanciful musings.

Excuse me for such whimsical utterances.
Only, it was so very odd… You, and Artorias. I owe my life to each of you.
And both seem to share some resonance of sorts…
Perhaps it is the nature of true greatness.

I still think on that creature from the Abyss that preyed upon me.
My faculties were far from lucid, but I quite clearly sensed certain emotions.
A wrenching nostalgia, a lost joy, an object of obsession, and a sincere hope to reclaim it…
Could these thoughts belong to the beast from the Abyss?
But if that were true, then perhaps it is no beast after all?
Oh, please forgive my ramblings. It's just that, I wish to know the truth.
And no one, not even loving Elizabeth, will tell me.

Elizabeth dialogue:

• First time speaking

Well, look at this one. From what far-away age hast thou come?
Thy Scent is very human, indeed … but, not intolerable…
Ah, Prince Dusk's saviour. Thine aura is precisely as she described.
I thank thee deeply, for rescuing Her Highness.
But Princess Dusk is here no longer… snatched away by that horrifying primeval human.
And so I must ask… Couldst thou once more play the saviour?

• Answer "Yes"

Thank you.
I am Elizabeth, guardian of this sanctuary.
Something of a godmother to Princess Dusk.
I shall assist thee, to my utmost.
For I am one with the sorceries of Oolacile.
