I don’t get this one. Would someone mind explaining it to me?

I think the joke is that Fournival has been telling the dragon, and maybe others as well, that they are the one true love and soulmate of Arisen. Not sure if Arisen is a name or a title. Anyway, Arisen says that's not true and the dragon starts floundering because this ruins their whole "fight me or sacrifice your loved one" bit.

I don't play Dragon's Dogma, but I always heard the main character (called an Arisen) builds up relationship points. And when they confront the dragon they threaten whoever is highest on the relationship charts. If NONE of the potential romance options has a positive relationship score, it defaults to some random merchant guy.

That's my rough understanding, anyway. I'm sure there's more to it. But I distinctly remember people posting about the guy ending up as their "Beloved" completely on accident.
