[It's one of the little girls again.]

Tell me, if you would, of your rulers. Your kings and queens, emperors and empresses, presidents and prime ministers. Who decides the fate of your country and inspires your loyalty? Or, perhaps not.

On another personal note, who would suggest a weapon suitable for a girl ten years of age?

I suppose I'm as qualified as anyone. I'm the heiress to the throne back at home, but that doesn't necessarily mean a whole lot. When the time is right, every heiress is expected to challenge the Empress, Her Imperious Condescension, for the throne. No one has succeeded in a very, very long time. She's the last one.

The system where I'm from is very harsh. It's a caste system based on the color of one's blood. Red and brown are low, purple is high. I wanted to change it, more than anything.

How does the Empress rule? What is the treatment of the lower castes as things are now?

To say she rules with an iron fist is putting it lightly. She's a conqueror, out to expand her territory to the ends of the universe. She kills anyone who dares disagree, sending her brigades of Archeradicators and Threshcecutioners to thin out the population of anyone who doesn't believe as she does.

The lower castes? Culled as soon as possible, unless she can use them. When she does, it's...it's cruel.

That's horrible. I sincerely wish for your ascension to the throne as soon as possible.

It is. She's...we're supposed to be as close as two can be, genetically, but we are polar opposites in how we think and act. I want to set things right.

Perhaps being here will bring you the power and wisdom to succeed.
