That was my ex-husband.[sr]In modern terms, we used to...hook up? No, that sounds...wrong. [k] [charaFace B 0] ＠Semiramis I was all alone at the time, so I didn't care what[sr]he was like as long as he was willing to marry me... [k] ＠Semiramis ...but he was a far better man than I had ever imagined. I'd been prepared for the worst, so it was shocking how easily we got along. [k] [charaFace B 7] ＠Semiramis ...Of course, as I alluded to earlier,[sr]our end was not a happy one. [k] ＠Semiramis There was a man by the name of Ninus who[sr]fell in love with me the moment he saw me. [k] [charaFace B 4] ＠Semiramis Ninus took me from Onnes, and Onnes ended up taking his own life in despair. [k] ？1：So you wanted to change the past to help him? [charaFace B 0] ＠Semiramis ...No. I would never be who I am[sr]now if he had not married me. [k] ？2：So you wanted to see what a different future might have been like? [charaFace B 0] ＠Semiramis There may have been a future where[sr]he did not end up dying in misery. [k] ＠Semiramis But in that future, I would have been lost to history,[sr]never having had a name. [k] ？！ ＠Semiramis Still...this old man is an indelible part of my memories. [k] [charaFace B 6] ＠Semiramis I merely thought that,[sr]if it were possible to save him... [k] ＠Semiramis ...I might even go so far as to entrance a saint. [k] [charaFace B 0] ＠Semiramis Hmph, I need not have bothered.[sr]People never change. [k] ＠Semiramis They hold fast to ideals of change,[sr]yet also see beauty in remaining steadfast. [k] [charaFace B 4] ＠Semiramis In the end, any change is but illusion.[sr]An illusion that it seems I fell prey to, however briefly.

[k] ＠Shakespeare It seems there is a greater story there,[sr]but I doubt it has anything to do with me. [k] ＠Shakespeare So, if you had chosen differently, you could have lived out your life peacefully, as one of the common folk. [k] [charaFace D 1] ＠Shakespeare I would have thought that idea would hold great appeal for an empress, and yet you dismissed it out of hand!

[k] [charaFace B 0] ＠Semiramis I am sorry for bringing you along on this, Master.[sr]It seems this was a waste of time. [k] ？1：I don't mind. ？！ [charaFace B 1] ＠Semiramis Hehe, you are a simple one, aren't you.[sr]I will see that you receive some sort of reward.
