15 years ago, as a young elf, Adeline met Yorick while seeking her Telezia, and settled in Carderock. However, Yorick lost his life in the Siege, and she has been living in sorrow ever since. Even now, she remains in Carderock Pass, helping young elves.
In order to befriend Adeline, you must finish the quest chain involving Yorick. Giving gifts to Adeline also gives Fondness points to Irine. The gifts that Adeline like are:
It's not peaceful here, as it is in Mana Ridge and Ironwood Village. We aren't protected by strong city walls, like in Saint's Haven. But I believe Carderock Pass has a charm all its own.
I think Carderock's a dump. (+?.?? Aversion)
That seems a little harsh, {user_nick}. But you are entitled to your opinion.
It's a nice place to settle down. (+0.50 Fondness)
Sometimes I consider never returning to the Tree of Life, and spending the rest of my days here.
I love the natural beauty here. (+1.00 Fondness)
Yes! Sometimes I go to Crystal Stream and just watch the flowing water for hours.
I like it because you're here. (+2.00 Fondness)
(Adeline blushes.) I don't quite know what to say to that, {user_nick}.

What's on your mind?
Actually, I've been thinking about something Bailey said to me recently. He says May has been trying to act like me, and he thinks it's causing some problems. What do you think?
If May's involved, it's bad. (+?.?? Fondness)
Is it? But May is always so sweet to me... I wonder what I should do.
Don't worry about it. Bailey's wrong. (+?.?? Aversion)
Are you sure? Bailey isn't the type to speak ill of others. I'm sure he has a reason for thinking May is up to something.
She's copying you? Why isn't she copying ME. (+?.?? Fondness)
I don't think May should be copying anybody. She's young, so she's still learning, but she should try to be her own person.
Let her. She may learn something. (+2.00 Fondness)
Do humans learn by imitating others? I wonder what it is that I could teach her.

What do you think of Chandler?
Chandler and I are very different people, but he's a nice man. Sometimes I worry about his insistence that he does everything himself, though.
Good thing he has you watching his back. (+2.00 Fondness)
I can't always be there, but... Thank you for your confidence.
He does that because his brain is made of muscle. (-?.?? Fondness, +?.?? Aversion)
I may not always get along with Chandler, but please don't speak ill of him.
Really? Chandler is my favorite friend.. (+?.?? Fondness)
I didn't know that you and he were that close. I hope I didn't offend you...
Maybe it's annoying, but it's also an admirable attitude. (+0.5 Fondness)
That's true. His iron will has saved my life a few times.

What do you think of Germaine?
I'm sad whenever I think of his master, Sir William. I don't think Germaine has dealt well with his death.
That's putting it lightly. (+?.?? Aversion)
I-is that how you really feel, {user_nick}? Funny, I thought you were more compassionate than that...
Just give him more time. (+?.?? Fondness)
They say time heals all wounds, but is that really true? I don't feel that it is, but... Somehow, I have hope.
His faith will heal him. (+1.00 Fondness)
I sometimes forget that he is a member of the Divine Order. Perhaps the Goddess will give him the peace of mind that he deserves. I need to stop worrying so much.
You should try to cheer him up. (+2.00 Fondness)
Cheer him up? I wish there was more that I could do, but I will try. Thank you for the advice.

What do you think of Tiana?
She's nice enough, but I worry about the animosity between the Astral Coven and the Divine Order. I know that they have a lot of history, but isn't it time for them to set the past behind them?
They're working together for now. What more can we ask for? (+2.00 Fondness)
That's a relief, at least. At their core, the sorceresses and the clerics are all very sensible people.
Setting the past behind you is easier said than done. (+?.?? Fondness)
I agree. There's no point in putting yourself through so much pain over something that happened so long ago, is there?
Only if the clerics stop persecuting the sorceresses. (+?.?? Fondness)
I can't say that I agree with the witch hunts of the past, but the Divine Order hasn't taken action against the Coven for a long time. I think it's time the sorceresses let go of their grudge against the clerics.
Only if the sorceresses stop using dark magic. (+?.?? Aversion)
Tiana tells me that they practice the same magic as the ancients. We rely so much upon the legacy of the ancients already, so why should their magic be considered evil?

What do you think of Deckard?
Mustache! Uh, I mean, he is a little odd, isn't he? I asked him why he's growing his mustache out, and he told me that he grew it on a bet, and now he couldn't dream of going without it. Are all human men like that?
No, Deckard is...unique. (+?.?? Fondness)
Yes, I thought that was the case. But why does he care so much about his facial hair? Maybe I should just ask him.
Maybe it's his destiny to grow a killer mustache? (+?.?? Fondness, -?.?? Aversion)
I see. Yes, perhaps it is his telezia to grow his mustache out. You always know how to put things so I understand them, {user_nick}.
Mustache growing is just his hobby. (+0.00 Fondness)
Is that all it is? Humans have the strangest hobbies.
Men! All they care about is competition and betting and mustaches. (+?.?? Fondness)
Even Yorick did things I couldn't understand. Why are men so concerned with competition, I wonder.
65.00 Fondness
Is something the matter?
No, nothing's the matter. I was just thinking that I'm always the one talking. Why don't you tell me something about yourself, {user_nick}?
(Tell her about your insecurities.) (+2.00 Fondness)
(Adeline blushes.) {user_nick}, I didn't realize you'd tell me something so personal. I guess we're closer than I thought.
(Tell her about your first love.) (+?.?? Fondness)
That's a beautiful story, {user_nick}. It reminds me of Yorick... E-excuse me.
(Tell her about your favorite food.) (+?.?? Fondness)
You like THAT? Interesting. I guess we have very different tests. Hmm... Maybe I'll try making some for you later.
(Talk about the weather.) (+?.?? Aversion)
The weather here is always nice. I guess you don't want to open up just yet? That's fine, {user_nick}. I have plenty of time to get to know you.
75.00 Fondness
Tell me about Yorick.
(Adeline has a distant look in her eyes.) He was a little immature, but he was a good man. Sometimes I wonder how we would have got along if I knew then what I know now.
You can't change the past. (+?.?? Fondness, +?.?? Aversion)
That's true. Somehow hearing those words makes me regret the past even more, though.
Why would that make a difference? (+?.?? Fondness)
Maybe it wouldn't have. Even though I have regrets, I was happy back then, and I think he was happy, too. Maybe a regret is just a memory that's been torn by tragedy.
But could he fight? (+?.?? Fondness)
He wasn't bad, but what does that have to do with anything? I didn't love him for his prowess with an axe. I loved him for his smile, and the kindness he showed me...
You should look to the future. (+2.00 Fondness)
Maybe you're right. Yorick fills my past, but there's nothing I can do to make him come back...
85.00 Fondness
Are you seeing anyone these days?
Seeing...? Oh, no! After Yorick, I didn't think I could ever love another person...
I hope you can meet someone to help heal your scars. (+?.?? Fondness, -?.?? Aversion)
I've already met such a person. You've been such a support to me, {user_nick}.
Don't lose yourself in the past. (+0.00 Fondness)
I won't! But it's not easy to forget the love of your life.
I could introduce you to someone. (+?.?? Fondness)
You'd do that for me? No thank you, {user_nick}. Brother Germaine has helped counsel me through my grief, but I'm not quite ready.
So you're still not over him. (+?.?? Fondness)
And I may never be! Not really, anyway. A part of him will always be here, with me, but it's not the same... That's what Germaine says. I think he understands what I'm going through...

What is your greatest wish?
All I desire is to help the archers who come to Carderock Pass. And of course I want to protect the town. What is your greatest wish, {user_nick}?
Is that really all you want? (+?.?? Aversion)
What? Of course! What else could I want?
World domination! (+?.?? Fondness)
You always say the funniest things, {user_nick}.
I want to be closer to you. (+2.00 Fondness)
It makes me happy to hear you say that, but surely there's something more you want.
I don't know. (+?.?? Fondness)
I understand. Your journey is just beginning, and it may yet be longer than mine. I pray that your road brings you to peace.
