Other than what I've already posted, there isn't much else on Four that I can find. The only scene that I believe she's actually in doesn't give any details about her.

All right, I'll take another crack at the end of Doll v Elluka.


 * Elluka asks Eve why she has survived up til now, for what purpose.


 * Eve: (Purpose? I have none. And how about we listen about you in reverse? For what have you lived for? To collect the vessels of sin? ........ No. That's just your reason after the fact)

I am assuming "reverse" is an indicator in general of flipping something to the other side; I've seen it pop up in lots of passages that have that connotation, even when the term doesn't really fit into the translation.

Also I put after the fact for "後付", which (from what I can tell) literally means "after date of effect". Anyone else that can pitch in there would be great.


 * No purpose-Eve words may not have been lies. Since she loses her memory with each transmigration, her subconsciously mad personality causes incidents every so often. And then, she'll pursue the remnants of her dear husband, Adam, sometimes layered on humans. It is something that cannot be understood, something twisted.

Now the above is a bit rough but it's what I understood about the narration. It also seems to confirm Eve is under assumed identities during the course of these "lives" and doesn't seem to regain her sense of self til (I assume) after they've "died".


 * Eve: (Even so, you realized it all, Elluka. How commendable/splendid. I'll give you a gift as a reward. What do you want? Poison? Or poison? Or perhaps poison? Hihahahahahahahaahahah!)


 * Eve isn't normal. She was broken a long time ago-a long time ago. Aimlessly, she's simply spent a long time in inertia (ie, doing nothing, never changing, never taking action/control). Even if she's unlike the other demons, perhaps she is the Demon of Sloth after all.


 * Elluka: "All right-Let's end this."


 * Elluka tightens her grip on Eve's neck.


 * Elluka: "The collapse of the Magic Kingdom-I didn't believe it to be inevitable (I think?). A lot of time has passed since then and the power of humanity has been developing. We're no longer needed anymore. Neither mages, nor gods...... nor demons."


 * Eve: (If you want, I'll let you die nice and quick, Elluka)


 * Elluka: I'll do so when the time's right. But before thatYou still remain, so I'll erase you from this world."


 * Eve: (Oh please do try. Care to tighten my neck til I break? It's futile. If this doll body is lost, I'll just find a new vessel. Whether it be a sword or a glass, even a human being would be fine. We can't be destroyed. Who do you---"


 * Elluka: "Noroku Ritosu." Elluka was chanting a short spell.


 * At that moment, her body, as well as Eve's body, were wrapped in a pink and green light.


 * Eve: (! This is-)


 * Elluka: "Yep. You guessed it...... The Swap Technique."


 * Eve: (So you're exchanging our bodies? What's the meaning of such a)


 * Elluka: "We're not exchanging them. You-Your soul, is coming to me. I'll capture you....... and you'll be completely dissolved inside of me."


 * Eve: (There's no way....... such a thing is...... possible)


 * Elluka: "We won't know if we don't try, right? ...... [stuff]"

For the above "stuff" and what follows, it's Elluka essentially saying she doesn't care if it even ends up destroying her as well. Eve's trying to talk her out of it, saying that Levianta's destruction wasn't all her fault.

Elluka then goes onto say that if Eve's the "Original Sinner", then she's the same, then adding that it's not just them but the people of Magic Kingdom, Kiril, Irina, and Eve too.

Continuing on:


 * Elluka: "Let's come together. Become one with me"


 * Eve: (St..... op.....)


 * Elluka: "I'm grateful....... to get a gift from you....... So..... It's "yourself"!"


 * A quiet battle was waged. There was no sound inside the cottage, just the mage and the doll staring at one another. When fifteen minutes had passed, a pink light enveloped the entire cottage. The battle was over.

The next scene states that Elluka came back to the Millennium Tree again, welcomed by Gumillia and Michaela.
