00:00As I gaze into the eyes of the man they call Prince, I see not a ruler, but a puppet.
00:10A pawn, manipulated since birth by courtiers, friends, family, and even gods.
00:21Their admonitions pull me in all directions, tearing me apart, breaking me.
00:27I see a man who yearns for righteousness, but knows not who he must become.
00:36I will assert my power. My enemies will know my wrath.
00:42My resolve will never falter. My empire will prosper, and all those who stand in my way will be swept aside.
00:52I will be cautious and observant. I will plan meticulously, leveraging my connections.
01:00I will plot, scheme, and turn unsuspecting foes into friends.
01:07My courtiers will slit each other's throats to win my favor.
01:13I will listen to the people and heed their will.
01:17I will rule for their sake. I will strive for the greater good and the prosperity of all.
01:24I will cherish those I hold dear, guided by love and compassion.
01:33I will be the ruling hand of the gods. I will make their will manifest.
01:40And those who dare question my faith will draw their righteous ire.
01:46True believers will know love and bliss.
01:51My empire will become heaven on earth.
01:56And I will lead my flock to a brave new world.
02:01As I plumb the depths of my soul, I find a singular truth within.
02:07No matter the path I take, my life will be full of pain and suffering.
02:16Such is the fate of all rulers.
