[ When you insert the key and open the door, you'll find the room inside looks like the living room of a mansion. There are several doors, but one in particular stands out to you: it is ornately decorated, the very door's wood itself carved beautifully with gold etched in to make luxurious patterns depicting what looks like the sky and the wind blowing through the grasslands. Though the door is closed, you can see through it—as if it's somewhat transparent.

The room is painted baby blue and a gold-plated cradle sits in the room. Inside, a baby cries - high pitched and noisy, though immediately a nurse comes in to rock the child back to sleep. ]

-

[ Slowly, the scene changes, fading in and out with various silent scenes—the baby sits up, trying to climb out of her cradle; a little toddler dressed prettily with expensive clothes beams pleasantly; a tantrum, thrown by the little girl who's distressed; the little girl holding a puppy, pleased as punch; then the wall becomes opaque. ]

[ In the middle of the open doorway, a young girl the age of 10 sits on a chair, smiling at you. a golden retriever is curled up beside her.

This is your little girl. you couldn't help spoiling her, honestly - after all, she's a noble too, and she should like to become a princess as well. She deserves it! But you also know, with how your history's gone, she's going to have to work to get to the top. Still, you have faith in her - she's your girl, after all. ]

[ Welp. ]

[ Time to crush the metaphorical representation of my brother. ]

This must be the princess the servant was talking about.

Baby's first rivalry, what a beautiful thing to see.

She's losing, though. What do we do?

If it's a true rival, she'll pick herself up and be all the better for it. She'll be tested and know how far she can go and that's an important point in a girl's development. It's not our place to interfere with that.

She spied on us and tried to blow us up, though. It's not just about Princess Gold now.

We know for sure it was her, not some other douche behind the scenes? I mean, seems like the people who live here have literally nothing better to do than shitstir.

Well...we know the Duchess is all wrapped up in shady Plague Bearer stuff. Seems pretty likely the servant was planted by her. We can keep looking into that while Princess Gold handles the rivalry stuff in public.

Kiddo on the rivalry, check. But aren't all our neighbors into shady plague bearer stuff? They took us to that party and everything.

Give her the tools to face her rival herself. There's no point in a rival if she's not the one to take them down.

So...keep digging up dirt but let her decide what to do?

[I don't like this plan :(]

Well, when it comes to facing down a rival, that's on her. But all this other stuff with that servant, we can focus on.

That works for me~

Hey, is there police in this world? Someone tried to kill us, we should make sure they're working on it too. Maybe we can make the Silver Duchess nervous~

... I'm not sure, actually. I haven't been paying attention to that part.

[ Someone said sports and that's now 95% of what I care about in this game. ]

[nodding in agreement like yes, obviously.]

[ Thanks mom. ]

If it's volleyball, I can help her in practicing. But there's also that whole... exploding servant thing.

Ace and I can deal with the exploding servant. We'll run down the connections on it; they might just lead us straight to Dutchess.

Alright. I'll try to make sure that the games stay clean; we have to make sure Princess has a fair place to play.

So is this Silver chick winning because she's better at exclamation points?

Loudness shouldn't have any effect.

Gotta be some reason people're into the newer, shinier model. If this's a real rivalry, all we can do is help the kiddo find her competitive advantage, right?

Yeah. I can keep doing what I've been doing, but in terms of new edges and angles, that would be your specialty, right?

Yeah. I gotta learn more about this Silver, though...see how they're the same, and how they're different. You haven't seen any of this kid?

I don't recall. Did you wanna focus on her, then? I can focus on building up Princess' skills in the meantime, then you can come around and build on top of that.

Sure. We should be able to come up with some good strategies--you for the sporty parts, and me for the cool factor. Think Cardigan and Ace're dealing with the duchess, and that's probably all you should hear for culpable deniability.
