Alra Priestess/Priestess

Alra Priestess is an optional boss in part 2 of Paradox. She fights the party after the Canaan Sisters were defeated by the party.

Recruitment
Either make peace between the plant tribe and insect tribe or side with the plants. Afterwards, Priestess will join the party if you ask her, unless you sided against her.

Biography
Leader of Plansect village. She suffers from many various stress induced ills, which the ongoing war between the Plant tribe and Insect tribe have not helped much. If she decides to join the party, she can later on become the Queen Alraune through a ritual that the previous Queen Alraune performed on the current Queen Alraune, who will perform it on Priestess, gaining new powers, and also more stress.

Battle Dialogue
"Uuu, I need to take some stomach medicine... I can't help stressing myself."

"Every day, I feel dizzy from exhausting work. Ah, I have to drink my stamina sap..."

"Conflict is tragic, but... Invasion and domination are a greater tragedy."

"Conflict ruins the mind. Even the Alraunes who used to be kind have turned violent."

"I have to defeat the insect tribe... Or the day we can live quietly will never come."

"If I become a Queen, I'd have a more respectable chair... Sorry, that was a short-tempered rant."

"I have to work hard for the sake of my brethren in the plant tribe... I've hardly gotten any sleep for a week"

"I listen to the voices of those who desire peace. I have to end this futile struggle quickly..."

"I have to prune my chair... If it grows too much, it makes sitting down difficult."

"If I can't get a firm grip on myself... My brethren in this land will be oppressed."
