Eruruu

Prelude to the Fallen

**Eruruu** (エルルゥ) is Aruruu's older sister and Hakuowlo's main love interest. It was she who found Hakuowlo and healed him back to health in the beginning of the series. She gets her name from the Eruruu Flower.

## Appearance

Eruruu is a rather beautiful young woman with wolf ears and a tail. She has big brown eyes, pale skin, and dark grey hair. She is short for her age, as she is quite a bit shorter than Hakuowlo. She is often taunted because of her small breast size. She wears her hair in a low pony tail, letting her bangs and random pieces of hair hang freely. She also has a hair piece which happens to be an important key. Eruruu's clothing consists of a high-collared, ankle length dress with long sleeves and short brown boots

## Personality

Eruruu is a strong-willed and emphatic person who puts all her heart and effort into the things she does. She could be described as having a forceful, but caring personality. She is a kind hearted person who loves helping people and hates to see someone get hurt. Eruruu is protective over her younger sister, Aruruu, and often scolds and/or worries about her. During the series, Eruruu conceals her feelings in an attempt to keep everyone happy, especially her feelings for Hakuowlo and her grief for her grandmother's passing.

Eruruu often behaves like any ordinary yandere when a girl is around Hakuowlo or when a girl has feelings for Hakuowlo, which makes Eruruu jealous and adopt a murderous behavior. Whenever Hakuowlo tries to comfort her, she often takes his hand and bites it, a trait that was passed on to her daughter Kuon.

## Biography

After helping Hakuowlo in his recovery, Eruruu begins to fall in love with him due to his will to protect and of his care for her sister Aruruu. She sticks by him throughout their many adventures and becomes his personal servant when he becomes emperor. In the end, she eagerly waits for Hakuowlo to return from his sleep and continues to be a healer.

For some time, Eruruu was quite well-known across Tuskur as a prominent apothecary, but she suddenly disappeared from the world one day.

Eruruu is re-introduced in *Utawarerumono: Mask of Truth* as one of Kuon's "mothers," and someone especially important to her. She currently resides in the Onkamiyamukai Subterrane Shrine as a priestess, watching over the seal where Hakuowlo is located.

## Relationships

Nuwangi - One of Eruruu's childhood friends. He is obsessed over his nonexistent relationship with Eruruu. Nuwangi claims that she supposedly promised him that she would marry him.

Aruruu - Eruruu's younger sister. Eruruu often displays her fear for her sister's safety in the form of scolding, but it is clear she loves her very much.

Hakuowlo - Eruruu's only love interest throughout the series, she shows her unhappiness when he often refers to her as his younger sister. One large reason she fell in love with him was his treatment of her sister. Not rejecting her when she "adopted" him as her father and filling that role in her life. At the end of the game, the two confess their love for each other and Eruruu waits with hope that Hakuowlo will return.

Tuskur - Her grandmother and teacher in medicine. She displays her fear for her safety such as when she went off to see Yuzuha at night.

Kuon - Along with the others, Eruruu raised Kuon when she was a child. Kuon was the closest to Eruruu of all her mothers and was visibly saddened of her disappearance before reuniting with her.

## Trivia

* Eruruu is highly skilled as an apothecary, and it was she who who taught the medicinal arts to Kuon. Her teachings were strict when compared to other general topics, but Eruruu had learned well from her grandmother: an apothecary's work is a serious matter, as others' lives may rest in their hands.
* It is also likely that she taught Kuon the same song she used for Hakuowlo when Kuon sang it in front of Haku. Based on these facts, it's likely that of all the mothers Kuon is close to, Eruruu is the closest.
* Eruruu is the reincarnation of Mikoto, Iceman's wife.
