"Not at all," Elincia responds, "take your time, I'm in no rush." She smiles reassuringly at the girl at the table. This is the first time she's seen her about, so she decides to introduce herself.

hoo-EY this one's popular. also asked by @ashenprofessor, @blarflame, and @felemfidelem / major arcana headcanons

(i'll answer them together because i doubt anyone wants to read me give pretty much the same answer four times hehe)

Elincia takes a lot of comfort from her loved ones. Actually just about anyone she cares about. So this ends up applying to her people in a way too. She takes a great deal of solace in the knowledge that they're safe and well, even more so if they're happy. Being able to alleviate their troubles and bring joy to others really does help her sleep at night. I believe her self-esteem is almost tied to the idea of herself as a protector and healer to others.
