That was fun. I liked the part were he fought the Hydra. Grianne takes a pause to collect her thoughts. So, you said there was another purpose to the story ?

"Er... Not really. I was saying that, if you know how to read and write, you can read all kinds of stories like this one. On top of that, you can write your own stories too. I'm sure you have a lot of fun stories from your time in the forest."
Eldin scratches his head and smiles nervously. "Well... If you want I'll read to you sometimes. So you ready?" Eldin puts the fairy tale book down and picks up a children's alphabet book. He then begins introducing the alphabets to Grianne.
((One of these days, I’m gonna go and try to bring on a Monster Hunt to bring back monsters for the Colliseum, if only for fun))

Liam the Weak: Level 4 Human Fighter - Trying to fight against his other personality, and constantly losing.
Aodh: Level 20 Half-Elf Cleric of Life - Not really. It's a strange being that had possessed and broke down a level 20 Cleric of Life Domain, gaining his knowledge and power.
"*****": Level 1 Tiefling Sorcerer - Her family is dead, and her will is broken. She follows orders so that those that command her will allow her to die.

1 Grianne struggles with the letters. The pictures don't seem to help much either. Disappointed in herself Grianne says This is harder than i thought it would be.
Eldin says, "Sure." He chants a prayer to Hades and picks up the fairy tail book again. He goes to the second story and starts reading. He tries to really make experience better through his reading.
Performance: 14 + 1 (Guidance)
The story is... 2. Instead of one large story, Eldin ends up reading a series of very short stories, barely a page long. Each story has a moral. This world's version of Aesop's fables. He ends up reading... 4 stories.
Eldin get REALLY into his reading and makes it seem like the story world has come to life.
Eldin puts Grianne at ease. Being around him is relaxing. The stress of being near people melts away when he is near. In fact she is so relaxed right now that, by the 8th story, she has dozed off. Her head on Eldin's shoulder, her weight gently pressing against his side. She makes no noise.

Eldin finishes the story and notices Grianne asleep he decides to not wake her and continue to silently read the book in his hand. He has definitely gotten more comfortable with Grianne. Just a day or two ago, such a situation would've caused his face to glow neon red. He thinks about something carefully and makes his mind up about it. He had plans for the naive elf girl and now he decides to go through with them.
Grianne dozes peacefully, the forest in her immediate area seems brighter and more alive. The grass seems greener, The breeze softer and cooler. Her connection to nature seems quite clear in these moments. Sometime, potentially a little before midday, she awakes. With a stretch and a yawn, Grianne sits up. Sorry, i seem to have fallen asleep on you. I don't think i have ever been this a tease .

"It's fine. No one gets this on their first attempt. You'll get it eventually." Eldin pats her on the back.
Grianne leans in and rests her head on Eldin's shoulder. She sighs Ok. Will you read me another story before we start again ?

Lets go through the letters again. I promise not to fall asleep this time. Eldin has Grianne's full attention.
