[k] [charaFace B 8] @Nitocris I've managed to lay claim to the victor's cup...but now comes the real problem. [k] [charaFace B 7] @Nitocris How do I report this to Pharaoh Ozymandias without seeming either too excited or too disinterested? [k] @Nitocris Something tells me that it would be inappropriate for a pharaoh to be too happy about a victory that should have been a certainty anyway... [k] @Nitocris But at the same time, acting like it was no big deal would belie how difficult it actually was to win, and make me a small-minded liar... [k] [charaFace B 8] @Nitocris Hmm... Mmm...

[k] [charaFace B 9] @Nitocris (...I guess I'll just have to go with the flow!) [k] [charaFace B 2] @Nitocris That's right.[sr]I, Nitocris, have returned as the victor! [k] [charaFace C 0] @Ozymandias Of course you have. That is hardly surprising or interesting. But I suppose I will ask you this. [k] @Ozymandias What were your thoughts...your feelings upon winning? [k] [charaFace B 9] @Nitocris W-well, uh...[sr]I suppose first and foremost... [k] @Nitocris I am relieved that I did not fail to live up to your expectations of me, Pharaoh Ozymandias. [k] [charaFace C 5] @Ozymandias ... [k] [charaFace B 4] @Nitocris (Oh no, he's displeased! I knew it![sr]I really am a failure as a pharaoh!) [k] [charaFace C 5] @Ozymandias ...Why do you not rejoice? [k] [charaFace B 8] @Nitocris Huh? W-well...as you said, Pharaoh Ozymandias,[sr]a pharaoh's victory should have been a certainty! [k] @Nitocris And yet, I had to struggle till the very end. [k] [charaFace C 5] @Ozymandias A struggle, hmm?[sr]Indeed, as pharaohs, our victories ARE certain. [k] [charaFace C 9] @Ozymandias But in your case...I knew all along how you would struggle to accomplish yours. [k] [charaFace C 5] @Ozymandias However, that has nothing to do with this. [k] @Ozymandias If a pharaoh could truly win merely by virtue of being a pharaoh, there would have been no need for you to enter this race to begin with. [k] [charaFace B 4] @Nitocris Th-then...why DID you allow me to enter it, Pharaoh Ozymandias? [k] @Nitocris If you knew what would happen all along, then... [k] [charaFace C 0] @Ozymandias Yes, of course I knew how it would end.[sr]That is precisely why I let you enter. [k] @Ozymandias I wanted you to claim the glory of victory with your own hands, and see how thrilled you were upon doing so. [k] [charaFace B 7] @Nitocris Huh...? [k] [charaFace C 0] @Ozymandias The victory itself was not what interested me.[sr]That was indeed inevitable. Boring. [k] @Ozymandias Instead...I was expecting you to return with something else worth seeing. [k] [charaFace C 5] @Ozymandias And yet you did not. This should have been quite the spectacle, interesting at the very least, but it bores me. There is only one problem here, Pharaoh Nitocris. [k] @Ozymandias You have disrespected me by failing to live up to my imagination. Do not make me sigh in disappointment. [k] @Ozymandias ...Hmph. This is what comes of thinking too shallowly. [k] [bgmStop BGM_EVENT_1 0.7] [charaFace B 2] @Nitocris ...! [k] [charaFace C 6] @Ozymandias I shall pardon this mistake of yours only once.[sr]Try again. [k] [charaFace B 6] @Nitocris Y-yes, sir![sr]In that case... [k] [bgm BGM_EVENT_2 0.1] [charaFace B 1] @Nitocris I won, Pharaoh Ozymandias![sr]I, a pharaoh, went out there and claimed my victory! [k] [charaFace C 1] @Ozymandias Good. Well done, Nitocris! That is how the pharaoh of the heavens ought to look! THAT is truly an expression worthy of the sun itself!

[k] [charaFace A 0] @Partner Caster Besides, I could never face her if I ended up losing this talisman she made for me on the very first day... [k] @Partner Caster At any rate, it seems that the Singularity in question has been dealt with successfully. [k] @Partner Caster I hope that our racing helped to make things easier for Master, if only a little... [k] [charaFace A 7] @Partner Caster ...Though I suppose whether that was enough to atone for my sins will have to be a story for another night. [k] @Partner Caster For the moment, I should just make certain that this story wraps up neatly. [k] [charaFace A 3] @Partner Caster So on that note...
