Chaos

Villier shows Qu the details on the mutiny. She watches as the number of casualties continues to escalate.

It seems that the attack on us a while ago was just a prelude. This time, he's raised his flags against us in direct opposition.

Where are they now?

A large number of troops have gathered outside the city, and there was riot in the North City District. It appears that they sympathize with the mutiny.

Now's our chance.

What do you mean?

We can leave Kowloong forever, freeing ourselves from family quarrels and human struggles.

You're right. Now's our chance...

But I won't leave Kowloong.

What do you mean?

You and I both know what will happen if Brother takes the throne. The mutiny will create a river of blood as they slaughter the citizens that support us.

We can't let him do that.

The citizens... Why can't you drop the act this time?

It's sickening. I thought you understood me.

I do understand. But I'm sorry, I was born to rule.

Protecting the citizens is my duty.

Hmph, do as you wish. I no longer concern myself with human affairs.

I wish to join the Science Council and work on their "Gestalt" AI technology.

Okay. I wish you all the best.

Enough with the niceties. I can't stand all this social etiquette.

I do not know whether I made this decision out of everyone's expectation or out of my own free will.

But when I think about leaving Kowloong, a voice deep within my heart yells, "STOP!"

Because it's home to my comrades—those that have what I lack. They are more perfect and beautiful than me.

So my duty is clear. I must protect them. I must protect the people of Kowloong.
