Salamander/Companion

Salamander is one of the Four Spirits, the one who represents Fire.

Recruitment
Joins after defeating her in battle.

Biography
Salamander resides in Gold Volcano, waiting for everyone to come challenge her or to look for her teachings. While Luka come here for the former, he actually gets swept in the argument between her and Undine. After fighting her, Granberia appears and says that she must not contract with Luka. Whether Luka fights the Heavenly Knight or not, Salamander tells Granberia that she shouldn't fight if she isn't fully convinced, making the knight leave. Afterwards, Salamander remains mostly silent, only noting that she gets respect from her fellow spirits when she's used as a heater in the Snow Continent.

Battle Dialogue
“Now, show me your power!”

“Granberia... Are you still going to obey that Monster Lord...?”

“You must surpass the power of the fire spirit!”

“I will measure your power through my fists!”

“If your body can't handle the power of fire... It will destroy you without mercy.”

“Granberia's abilities already far exceed my power. I have awakened an extraordinary talent...”

“No matter how far she exceeds the power of her mentor, Granberia cannot go against me. I hold many of her childhood secrets...”

“Granberia was also very stubborn when she was little... Even then, I was able to correct her significantly.”

“This sacred place, flowing with lava, gives me my strength...”

“Fighting against you... As a warrior, it's thrilling!”

“Wind, Earth, and Water... Which power do you think you wouldn't need?”
 * Wind – “You would be okay without the wind...? You wouldn't be able to fight properly if you lacked speed.”
 * Earth – “You would be okay without the earth...? If you lost your toughness, you would quickly be overwhelmed by enemy attacks.”
 * Water – “If you were missing water... ...Yeah, you wouldn't be troubled without it.” (+10 Affinity)

“Mind, technique, body... Which is most important?”
 * Mind – “Hmph, are you trying to answer me like an elderly person...? The body is greater than the mind! The body controls everything!”
 * Technique – “Technique is also important, but... If you don't train your body first, you can't do anything!”
 * Body – “Yes, the strength of your body is more important than anything! If you don't train your body, your mind and technique are useless!” (+10 Affinity)

“Have you already fought with Granberia...?”
 * I fought her – “Then you know her strength... To tell you the truth, she's actually my disciple.” (+10 Affinity)
 * I haven't fought her – “...Is that so? It shouldn't be strange that she has already appeared before you...” (-5 Affinity)
 * I forgot – “To forget a battle with someone so valiant... You're either a bigshot, or an idiot...”

“Among the four spirits, I was the last one... I would like to hear the reason you postponed visiting me.”
 * Circumstances of the journey – “Iliasville was your starting point... Well, I guess it couldn't be helped.”
 * The star performer comes last – “Heh, that's very flattering...” (+10 Affinity)
