*Lin: , what is your current location?
*Lin: ...I see. You're making good progress so far.
 	
*Lin: By the way, I've taken the trouble of gathering information...
*Lin: ...on the empress linked to this rumored treasure!
*Lin: Actually, it's more just like I asked Rhynt what he knew about her.
 	
*Lin: So, before the great war with the gods even happened...
*Lin: ...there was a young woman who ruled over this land.
*Lin: Her country was in the brink of ruin...
*Lin: ...but after her coronation, she was able to rebuild it in a very short time. 
*Lin: It is said that afterwards, she passed away while she was still quite young.
 	
*Lin: Her greatness is widely recognized by all historians, but...
*Lin: ...on the other hand, she would banish anyone who opposed her policies, would ignore any voice which contradicted her political views...
*Lin: ...and ruled with an iron fist.
*Lin: Looking at her from our current perspective...
*Lin: ...she was a very cold-blooded monarch.
*Lin: That's all that can be said.
 	
*Lin: However, according to Rhynt...
*Lin: ...she may be called cold-blooded, but...
*Lin: ...most of her political actions were logical decisions.
*Lin: So, about this bad reputation she has managed to obtain...
*Lin: ...it's not like it's hard to understand why people from this era would feel that way about her.
*Lin: However, Rhynt says that for the people of the present to bring such rumors into our own era is wrong.
*Lin: He doesn't think that we should be able to judge the true personality of those who lived in the distant past based on rumors alone.
 	
*Lin: That about sums it up, I guess.
 	
*Lin: Oh, I almost forgot!
*Lin: There are also rumors which say...
*Lin: ...that she was in love before she was crowned empress.
 	
*Lin: However, the knight rumored to be her lover...
*Lin: ...perished before she took over the throne.
*Lin: But the authenticity of this story has yet to be proven.
*Lin: Therefore, many historians don't even give it a second look...
