Listen- The placement of the afterimages seems a little off... Perhaps the environment here is different now to how it once was.
- Eurypon: Hah, the Kremnos Festival is really something this year... To think that the only person to break through the siege and fight their way to me was such a young and rather frail-looking warrior?
- Gorgo: King Eurypon, do not underestimate this frail-looking warrior who stands before you. My name is Gorgo. I have come to claim the one wreath. Even if it is you who stands against me, my spear will not hesitate.
- Eurypon: Your name is Gorgo? Haha! Your parents have some arrogance! Do they not know that was the name of the one that built Kremnos?
- Gorgo: It was not my parents who named me this. I once killed a lion with my bare hands, achieving a feat similar to that of Gorgo: "Conqueror of Lions."
- Gorgo: From that moment on, I changed my name to Gorgo. I will follow the example of that previous ruler and carve out a glorious new future for Castrum Kremnos with my own blood!
- Eurypon: Very well... Then raise your spear, Gorgo!
- The spear of Gorgo and the blade of Eurypon clashed, and they struggled against each other on the battlefield like two clones of Nikador, as blood and dust streaked through the air.
- After a few rounds of battle, both warriors came to a halt. Eurypon's thigh had been pierced by Gorgo's spear, and the wound on Gorgo's throat threatened to take her life if it grew an inch deeper.
- Eurypon: ...
- Gorgo: ...
- Eurypon: Gorgo, you have truly exceeded my expectations.
- Gorgo: Just what I would expect of a king... Now that you cannot move, and my weapon is out of my hands, I fear that we must call this a draw. Though I'm certain that I have earned myself that wreath, have I not?
- Eurypon: ...No.
- Gorgo: My king, if you are not yet satisfied... Then take my head as the king... However, this has nothing to do with victory or defeat. The battle is over, and I just simply do not wish to shed meaningless blood.
- Eurypon: ...You misunderstand me. Just now, if you had managed to last ten rounds against me, the crown would be rightfully yours.
- Eurypon: If your spear had pierced my throat or my heart, you could have taken the crown and been bathed in the blood of Kremnos as the new ruler.
- Eurypon: However, we are matched in both skill and will. Bathed in the light of Nikador, we both sow the seeds of the five great virtues.
- Eurypon: ...Gorgo, would you wear the crown as Queen of Kremnos, wield your spear and shield by my side, and defend the glory of Castrum Kremnos with me?

- The placement of the afterimages seems a little off... Perhaps the environment here is different now to how it once was.
- Eurypon: We will hold a coronation ceremony here, in the Lance of Fury's temple where Nikador tempered the divine blade.
- Eurypon: Krateros, warrior of Kremnos, has demonstrated the five great virtues of Kremnos during this festival, fighting with great spirit and spreading blood and death.
- Eurypon: Unfearing of blade at the throat, manifesting the visage of courage.
- Eurypon: Unyielding to conniving treachery, protecting the crown of honor.
- Eurypon: Unblinking of eyes burning bright, upholding the cornerstone of reason.
- Eurypon: Unbending from wounds to flesh, forging characters of tenacity.
- Eurypon: Undaunted of risking life to protect, embodying corpus of sacrifice.
- Eurypon: ...I bestow unto you the title of Watcher of Warriors. Krateros, will you accept this name?
- Krateros: It would be my greatest honor. I, Krateros, would give my life and defend your side, like iron wings that hold tight the honor of Kremnos.
- Gorgo: Krateros. You stood tall over thirty rounds against the hand of Eurypon. You stand as the most courageous of all warriors. As Queen of Kremnos, I bestow unto you a special duty...
- Gorgo: Mydeimos, the prince that I carry in my body, will be born to this world in a number of months. He has inherited the iron bones of myself and King Eurypon and been bathed in the divine light of Nikador day and night. He must become the new King of Kremnos.
- Gorgo: When that time comes, would you become his mentor? Teach him martial arts, protect him from malicious plots, and give your life to protect his throne when he becomes king, as you have with King Eurypon?
- Krateros: This... My Queen, I would not dream of disappointing you with such an earnest request.
- Eurypon: Hah. Gorgo, are you so certain that Mydeimos will be able to take the crown from my hands?
- Gorgo: Do not be ridiculous, Eurypon. You have more faith in Mydeimos than anyone.
- Eurypon: Hahaha! I cannot hide anything from you. If there were anyone in this world that could kill me, it could only ever be our child.
- Eurypon: If he will truly bear the future of Castrum Kremnos, what does it matter if he takes my head?
- Gorgo: Silence, Eurypon. You wish for him to commit patricide like yourself? You are not to forget the promise you made me.
- Eurypon: Ahem, I was kidding, just kidding! Krateros, master primus of the Watchers. From this day forward, you shall be Mydeimos' mentor. When the time calls, your loyalty to him shall supersede your loyalty to even me.
- Krateros: Very well, King Eurypon, Queen Gorgo.

- Priest: Honorable king, it does not matter how you repeat the steps of the prophecy, the outcome will always be the same...
- Priest: The prophecy has already stated without question that your child, Mydeimos, will take your life, bring an end to Nikador's eternal existence, and even the dynasty of Kremnos will fall at his hands...
- Priest: He will become the crown prince of a vanquished nation.
- Eurypon: ...
- Ephor: King Eurypon, what are you waiting for!? Imagine the great undertaking that we conceived. You will be the eternal King and Castrum Kremnos will continue on for millennia... What is the life of a single baby compared to all of this?
- Eurypon: Insolence! That child is mine and Gorgo's flesh and blood. When did you gain the right to criticize my actions?
- Ephor: King Eurypon, please quell your rage.
- Eurypon: ...I understand your reasoning. Though Castrum Kremnos seems to be prospering on the surface, behind the scenes there is danger all around. Even Nikador is gradually losing their mind under the attacks of our faceless enemy, the black tide.
- Eurypon: For the eternal future of Castrum Kremnos... I have no other choice.
- Ephor: My king, the generations shall prosper from your verdict. However, there is one concern that remains...
- Eurypon: I know what you are thinking... A determined and talented warrior like Gorgo will not simply sit back and watch as we take Mydeimos' life.
- Eurypon: I am certain that she will challenge me for the throne and try to protect her child using what she is best at... gladiatorial combat.
- Ephor: It is not that I do not have faith in your martial prowess. It is just that Queen Gorgo has always been a match for you. If the unexpected were to happen, all of our well-laid plans would vanish into thin air.
- Ephor: We are willing to sacrifice our lives and find a way to assassinate Queen Gorgo...
- Eurypon: Hah... Say what you will, but Gorgo is the Queen of Kremnos and my wife. I shall be the one to execute this foul deed.
- Eurypon: Prepare a poison. Do not make it too strong, just enough to numb her body. I shall find a way to have her drink it the day that I leave.
- Eurypon: Gorgo and I met and fell in love in the blood and dust of battle... So, allow me to bid her farewell personally in battle once more.
