[k] ＠Girl There's so much to do now that I've been left in charge of the underworld. I need to till fields, build houses, level mountains...

[k] ＠Girl At least I have plenty of books to read here, so I'll just keep studying until I find what I'm looking for.

I don't care if it takes another ten thousand years, I'm not gonna give up. This place may not be as pretty as the surface, but... [k] ＠Girl No, on second thought, not having any stars shining down here means I can make this into a land fairer, more equal, and more beautiful than any other nation. And that's just what I'm going to do. [k] [charaFace A 5] ＠Girl That's the whole reason why I awakened as an earth goddess. Bringing order to the underworld is my entire reason for being. [k] [charaFace A 4] ＠Girl Which is why... [k] [charaFace A 5] ＠Girl ...I don't have any desire to fly across the sky,[sr]or even to leave this subterranean world. [k] ＠Girl And I refuse to tolerate the use of power for one's own benefit, or for humans, the way Ishtar did. [k] ＠Girl And so I vow that I will only ever use my Authority for the benefit of the underworld. [k] ＠Girl Thanks to the power of that oath,[sr]not even the other gods can defy me here. [k] [charaFace A 4] ＠Girl ...That's right. This is how it should be. I don't want anything for myself. That's my oath; it is the source of my power. [k] [charaFace A 3] ＠Girl ...Honestly, part of me wishes I hadn't gone that far. I wish that I'd made an oath that was a bit easier on me. [k] ＠Girl If I break the oath, I might end up losing all my power and become a Gallû Spirit... [k] [charaFace A 1] ＠Girl Then again, why should I worry? It's not as if I would ever break my oath, you know! [k] ＠Girl The only things I care about are the underworld and making sure souls can rest in peace! Maaaybe I have my reservations if I'm being honest, but still! [k] ＠Girl But anyway, from now on, I'll never use my power for any one person in particular! [k] ＠Girl And forget about free protection! As if you guys have any idea how lonely it gets down here! [k] ＠Girl I'll never just help you humans on the surface out! So there! [k] ＠Girl If I do, I'll just explode right there on the spot!

[k] [charaFace B 3] ＠Gatekeeper Where's my present? You DO have one for me, yeah? Good thing I've been nursing this grudge for so long! [k] [charaFace B 1] ＠Gatekeeper Who'da thunk I'd be meeting Santa Claus at this age!? [k] ＠Gatekeeper Well? Don't you have a present for everyone who waits long enough? [k] ＠Gatekeeper Even if they're evil murderers and stuff? [k] ＠Gatekeeper C'mon, spit it out![sr]Isn't that kinda compassion crap your whole deal?

You're stiffing me on presents?[sr]Seriously? [k] ＠Gatekeeper Freakin' weird. Here I thought I was a perfect fit for the underworld. I'm an old hand when it comes to human sacrifice, y'know. [k] ＠Gatekeeper Guess I'm just not famous enough, huh. Figures. I never did get much in the way of name recognition. I think they call me a Rogue Servant? [k] [charaFace B 1] ＠Gatekeeper Anyway, you can just call me Shadow Santa. I'm actually a saint, if you can believe that! Heeheeheehee!

I don't got anything like that.[sr]I just deliver a buncha fakes and crap. [k] ＠Shadow Santa When I'm Santa, I just run to a dollar store and load up on cheap garbage. [k] ＠Shadow Santa Let me give you a little tip as your Santa senpai, you sheep-riding weirdo... Seriously, what the hell... [k] [charaFace B 1] ＠Shadow Santa Christmas is an event. It's all about the PRESENTS. [k] ＠Shadow Santa The value of goods changes every year. All they need is someone to give 'em, and someone to get 'em. [k] ＠Shadow Santa The present's genuine worth is secondary at best.[sr]Not that anyone these days seems to remember that.

[k] ＠Shadow Santa Seems like you're in a hurry though, huh? Fine, fine. Don't worry about me and my tragic backstory. [k] [bgmStop BGM_EVENT_5 1.5] ＠Shadow Santa You just gotta focus on getting rid of me, otherwise the gate won't open. [k] ＠Shadow Santa So come on, lady! Let's DO this! [k] [bgm BGM_EVENT_3 0.1] ＠Shadow Santa Christmas comes but once a year, right? What better way to deck the halls than with some good, old-fashioned murder with a smile!?
