Though she mostly stays cool and distant, utterly focused on her job, Elika and the Prince fall in love during their quest to save the world. She only has this magic because of a tragic occurrence, however. She is able to heal the Fertile Grounds of Ahriman's Corruption, weakening the evil god's hold on the land and preventing him from taking over. She keeps the Prince safe through their journey, and as the game progresses, she receives new powers which allows them to access new areas. Her magic is essential to getting through the game - you cannot get far without her.
