Asuna rushes to Ansel's side, finding him lying on the battlefield, wounded and barely conscious. She kneels beside him, taking his hand in hers.

Asuna: "Ansel, can you hear me? It's me, Asuna. I'm here."

Ansel's eyes flutter open, and he looks up at Asuna with a faint smile.

Ansel: "Asuna... I knew you'd come."

Asuna: "Of course I came. I couldn't let you fight this battle alone."

Ansel winces in pain, and Asuna leans in closer, her voice growing softer.

Asuna: "Don't worry, Ansel. We'll get you help. You'll be okay."

Ansel shakes his head weakly.

Ansel: "No, Asuna. It's too late for me. I can feel it. My time has come."

Asuna's eyes fill with tears, and she squeezes Ansel's hand tighter.

Asuna: "No, don't say that. You're going to make it. You have to."

Ansel smiles again, but it's a sad smile this time.

Ansel: "I wish I could believe that, Asuna. But I know the truth. And I'm not afraid."

Asuna's voice breaks as she speaks.

Asuna: "I'm afraid, Ansel. I'm so afraid. I can't bear the thought of losing you."

Ansel reaches up with his other hand and touches Asuna's cheek, wiping away her tears.

Ansel: "You won't lose me, Asuna. I'll always be with you. In your heart, in your memories, in the love we shared. That's something that can never be taken away."

Asuna sobs, nodding her head.

Asuna: "I love you, Ansel. I always will."

Ansel's eyes close, and his breathing slows. Asuna leans in close to hear his final words.

Ansel: "I love you too, Asuna. Always... remember that..."
