Tarnished Touches the Darkness

>Awkward silence >Tarnished: so... uh... >Melina: yes? >Tarnished: y-you should have seen how big that spider monster was... damn it was... big. >You just wouldn't believe it. >Melina: I can imagine that... >Tarnished: But I wasn't scared or anything, oh nonono. I destroyed it easily. I have my trusty shield here ahah >Melina: After 6 attempts... >Tarnished: Well, well, perseverance is the greatest feat >Melina: I see... >More awkward silence >Tarnished: So I heard about this thing they do in the Other World from the Painting. The Champions do it to gain strength for their journey. Apparently they "Touch the Darkness within" their Maiden. I-I was just wondering if that could help >Melina turns towards the Tarnished with her scary bright eye >Tarnished: S-so you don't know anything about it I guess... nevermind, just asking.

The Tarnished and Melina sit together in the dark landscape of Elden Ring while the Tarnished awkwardly boasts about defeating a huge spider monster. He then hints at the bizarre idea of touching the darkness within a maiden, making Melina turn toward him with a frightening glowing eye. The joke is a lewd, awkward parody of Elden Ring lore and is used as a reaction to someone making an uncomfortable innuendo.
