Tears of the Pharaoh 2023/Dialogue

**Start of the Event**

> **Ahmed** Pardon me, I'm Ahmed. The archaeologist who wrote you recently? Is anybody home?
>
>
> **Ginger** Meow?
>
>
> **Sunny** Gah! Who are you?
>
>
> **Ahmed** Oh, so sorry to surprise you. I've been granted permission by both Dorothy and Sally to locate and examine the ancient treasures hidden here in this mansion.
>
>
> **Sunny** Huh? You mean Grandma and Mom? They should have told me to expect company!
>
>
> **Sunny** Hold up a minute... Did you say ancient treasures just now?
>
>
> **Ahmed** Yes. You see, I have acquired a treasure map as part of my father's inheritance.
>
>
> **Ahmed** Strangely, it led me straight to this mansion. I had expected the destination be an old temple or rainforest.
>
>
> **Sunny** You're kidding! Show me the map!
>
>
> **Sunny** Well, well, looks like you're right. But I've never seen any treasures in around the mansion.
>
>
> **Ahmed** Hmm... Do you happen to have an old shed about? Or perhaps and abandoned cellar?
>
>
> **Sunny** We've got a shed. But there's nothing inside except for seeds and a couple of gardening tools.
>
>
> **Ahmed** May I take a look myself? Hmm... This corner seems suspicious.
>
>
> **Sunny** Holy lemons! What's all that? I had no idea!
>
>
> **Ahmed** Wait, there looks to be a note here. Let's give it a read.
>
>
> To Dorothy, my dearest friend, and Sally, the greatest traveller, I leave my treasure here under your protection... - Omar
>
>
> **Ahmed** Omar? My Father's name? This must be it! The treasure is here somewhere!
>
>
> **Sunny** I can't believe it was just here in the shed this whole time!
>
>
> **Sunny** What are these other things left with the letter though? Oh... They're blueprints!
>
>
> **Ahmed** This is... Oh, my. This looks like the architectural style of the forgotten Golden City!
>
>
>
> **Sunny** A Golden City? What on earth do you mean?
>
>

 **After purchasing the "Stairway to the past" decoration in the Mansion**

> **Ahmed** Look at this shape, and this structure! It bears the silhouette of the forgotten Golden City!
>
>
> **Sunny** Guess what? While you were looking for treasures, I actually built the stairs on one of the blueprints!
>
>
> **Ahmed** My, aren't you talented? Also, your outfit is just superb!
>
>
> **Sunny** Proper explorers clothes are a must when digging up ancient secrets!
>
>
> **Ahmed** This Golden City is a mythical place I've been studying for decades now.
>
>
> **Ahmed** It's been all but lost since a mysterious disaster wiped it off the map. All that remains are fragmented ruins, and a beautiful jewel called "Tears of the Pharoah".
>
>
> **Ahmed** But there is still so much more to discover! The archeological potential is beyond any other find this century!
>
>
> **Sunny** I had no idea we had such cool treasure in the house!
>
>
>
> **Ahmed** Shall we continue our chat while installing the floor from this blueprint?
>
>

 **After purchasing the "Pharaoh's path" decoration in the Mansion**

> **Ahmed** Advanced technology would have been required to produce this shade of blue back then. You can see how sophisticated their civilization was just from their road decorations!
>
>
> **Sunny** Haha, you look so excited. And you've just given me an idea!
>
>
> **Sunny** Why don't we recreate the golden city in this mansion? I mean, we've got the blueprints, we've got the treasures. Why not?
>
>
> **Ahmed** What a wonderful thought!
>
>
> **Ahmed** I am certainly grateful, but I worry in regards to all the time and effort required.
>
>
> **Sunny** Hey, this is worth it! It's for Mom and Grandma!
>
>
> **Sunny** Also, I'm super curious about what happened to this city!
>
>
>
> **Ahmed** I will do my best to investigate! Shall we get started then? Let us reveal the mysteries of the forgotten Golden City!
>
>

 **After purchasing the "Glorious golden fountain" decoration in the Mansion**

> **Sunny** Wow, the fountain is flowing like an oasis in the desert! I can't believe they were able to build such intricate designs!
>
>
> **Sunny** Now that I think of it, didn't you mention some jewels before? "Tears of the Pharaoh", I think you called them? You said they were left in the city somewhere?
>
>
> **Ahmed** Correct. The jewels were revered as a symbol of the city. They were also a very hard mineral, disaster-proof, one might say.
>
>
> **Ahmed** It was granted it's name due to how it appeared when shining upon the ruins. Many say it looked...lonely.
>
>
> **Sunny** I wonder what on earth could have happened?
>
>
> **Ahmed** There are countless historical books on the subject. But one thing connects them all - how the Pharaoh truly loved this city.
>
>
> **Sunny** After it fell into ruin, it made sense for the jewels to incur such a title.
>
>
>
> **Ginger** Meow...
>
>

 **After purchasing the "The cat Sphinx" decoration in the Mansion**

> **Sunny** Ginger! I think it suits you!
>
>
> **Ginger** Meow! Meow!
>
>
> **Ahmed** Haha, indeed! Actually, the Egyptians loved cats too. They often worshipped them as gods.
>
>
> **Ahmed** This sculpture here demonstrates the fact.
>
>
> **Sunny** Huh. Hey, Ahmed? Is it me, or is it getting foggy?
>
>
> **Ahmed** Get back. There's something out there in the fog!
>
>
> **Raneti** ...ho's...ther... .....Who's there? ...
>
>
> **Raneti** Who's there? I told you to leave the city!
>
>
>
> **Sunny** Gaaaah!
>
>

 **After purchasing the "Piece of the sun" decoration in the Mansion**

> **Sunny** You... You're...
>
>
> **Raneti** What has brought the two of you here? I do not recognize you... Are you friends of the traveller?
>
>
> **Ahmed** This must be Raneti! She ascended the throne at an early age, bringing an unprecedented prosperity to the kingdom. She was their greatest leader!
>
>
> **Raneti** Why do you continue to state the obvious? And why do you wear such clothes? They're odd.
>
>
> **Raneti** The city looks awful. Was it not possible to mitigate the disaster?
>
>
> **Ahmed** Raneti, your highness. I have some bad news. It is actually about four thousand years after the disaster you and people so desperately tried to prevent.
>
>
>
> **Raneti** Come again?
>
>

 **After purchasing the "Mural of fate" decoration in the Mansion**

> **Raneti** How could that be? Four thousand years, you say?
>
>
> **Raneti** But my people... Where are my people? What happened?
>
>
> **Ahmed** I called you their greatest leader before. But it was not just due to the peace and prosperity.
>
>
> **Ahmed** You, alone, remained and defended those during the disaster. That's why you are rememebered to this day as a legend.
>
>
> **Sunny** Wow...
>
>
> **Ahmed** This mural here tells the story. It was painted by the people, depicting the great Raneti, she who humbly guarded the city.
>
>
> **Raneti** The people... At least they were safe.
>
>
> **Ginger** Meow...
>
>
> **Sunny** Ginger, you are moved by the story?
>
>
> **Raneti** Oh my, look at this!
>
>
>
> **Raneti** Great mighty God, what brings you down to our humble realm like this?
>
>

 **After purchasing the "Oasis of life" decoration in the Mansion**

> **Ginger** Meow?
>
>
> **Raneti** I see now. My people's safety was granted due to this God's protection!
>
>
> **Raneti** Cute... No, great, wonderful God! Stay and relax as long as you desire.
>
>
> **Ahmed** Hahaha!
>
>
> **Ahmed** \*clears throat\*
>
>
> **Raneti** How dare you laugh in that manner before me!
>
>
> **Ahmed** I apologise, your grace.
>
>
> **Sunny** I'm glad I kept my giggles low key. Hehe.
>
>
> **Sunny** It was true that cats were worshipped as Gods though!
>
>
> **Ahmed** We can now consider it an archaeological fact. Of course, it may difficult be proving that the way we validated this matter was by meeting a four thousand year old Pharaoh...
>
>
>
> **Sunny** More importantly, how and why is she here?
>
>

 **After purchasing the "The tower that seals the darkness" decoration in the Mansion**

> **Ahmed** This is an obelisk - it seals the darkness.
>
>
> **Ahmed** It was built to prevent evil spirits from infesting the city, I think.
>
>
> **Raneti** That thing seals the darkness, you say? My, you modern people are not that imaginative!
>
>
> **Raneti** We had no need of such things. We had the great God to protect us!
>
>
> **Ginger** Meow!
>
>
> **Sunny** Ginger is really soaking this up...
>
>
> **Ahmed** Raneti, I'm sorry, I don't quite understand.
>
>
> **Raneti** This was built by the people to celebrate my birthday.
>
>
> **Ahmed** Oh no! Perhaps you could translate these letters then?
>
>
> **Raneti** Uh... "Happy Birthday, Raneti!", "Today's all about you!", "Treat yo'self!" You get the idea.
>
>
> **Ahmed** My interpretation was not even close, it seems.
>
>
>
> **Sunny** Haha! People never change, I guess!
>
>

 **After purchasing the "Desert palm tree" decoration in the Mansion**

> **Ahmed** Raneti, with all due respect, may I ask for some details in regards to the disaster?
>
>
> **Raneti** Much has been lost to history, it seems. I understand. Even in my time, the details were kept quiet.
>
>
> **Raneti** A traveller visited our city one day. She arrived by boat, and had red hair, like this one.
>
>
> **Sunny** Wow, really? Maybe it was one of my ancestors!
>
>
> **Raneti** The traveller spoke of a disaster that occurred in another region. It was strange, a bright white light that flashed and enveloped an entire continent...
>
>
> **Raneti** She said it... It seemed as if a great time had passed in a mere few seconds.
>
>
> **Sunny** Why do I feel like I've heard this before?
>
>
> **Raneti** Thus it was prophesized our city would be next. I tried to prevent the disaster in secret to avoid panic amongst the people.
>
>
>
> **Ahmed** What can you tell us about the day on which the disaster struck?
>
>

 **After purchasing the "Shining life of the desert" decoration in the Mansion**

> **Raneti** That day... I led an evacuation of the city. I provided my people with a suitable excuse, then returned to the city alone.
>
>
> **Raneti** I knew that if I could find the origin of the flash, I might have a chance to seal it.
>
>
> **Raneti** The traveller had gifted me a special jewel she said could be used for such a ritual.
>
>
> **Ahmed** Do you mean "Tears of the Pharaoh"? The legendary gemstone?
>
>
> **Raneti** "Tears of the Pharaoh"? What on earth do you mean? The Pharaoh does not shed tears! This was called "The Piece of the Rainbow". Or it was, when I had them.
>
>
> **Sunny** I cry even when I'm happy sometimes! Everyone sheds a few tears now and then!
>
>
> **Raneti** True, I suppose. Well, anyway, this jewel was unlike any I had ever seen before.
>
>
> **Raneti** I risked it all to stop the disaster. Fortunately, damage seems to have been limited to just our city.
>
>
> **Ahmed** I see. Now it all makes sense.
>
>
>
> **Raneti** Have I slumbered all these years to simply share my story?
>
>

 **After purchasing the "Mystical fan" decoration in the Mansion**

> **Ginger** Meow!
>
>
> **Sunny** Ginger! Don't hop around like that! You could hurt yourself!
>
>
> **Raneti** Do not challenge the great Ginger God's will, Sunny...
>
>
> **Sunny** Ginger...hehe...God?
>
>
> **Raneti** This structure you have built here, is this a gazebo?
>
>
> **Sunny** Yeah, that's right! There's a real pretty view of the mansion from here.
>
>
> **Raneti** I do miss the days when I watched the flowing river with my people in our gazebo...
>
>
> **Ahmed** Did you know the gazebo actually originated in Egypt?
>
>
> **Sunny** Really? I had no idea!
>
>
>
> **Ahmed** I found some blueprints for a gazebo in the treasure trove. Why don't we rebuild it together?
>
>

 **After purchasing the "Royal pottery" decoration in the Mansion**

> **Ahmed** I can't believe this pottery was found in such good condition.
>
>
> **Raneti** It was in the shed you searched before. I adore it, so I brought it with me.
>
>
> **Ahmed** Isn't it marvellous? The color, the shape...
>
>
> **Ahmed** These designs are what first drew me to studying the Golden City.
>
>
> **Sunny** Really?
>
>
> **Ahmed** It always broke my heart to think how much was lost...
>
>
> **Ahmed** A civilization that builds such beautiful things, they must have had brilliant minds. My career started with a yearning to better connect with that.
>
>
> **Ahmed** It's just so amazing that this pottery remained intact! I assume this was an ornament of some kind? Or a decoration, perhaps?
>
>
> **Raneti** Haha! Don't be silly. That was an exercise tool. I would fill it with water to control the weight, then lift it to train my arms.
>
>
> **Raneti** But, I suppose if you see it as decoration, that's perfectly fine also.
>
>
> **Sunny** Then let's decorate more in this style!
>
>
>
> **Ginger** What!
>
>

 **After purchasing the "Ancient gazebo" decoration in the Mansion**

> **Sunny** The great gazebo of the Golden City is finally complete!
>
>
> **Raneti** Your skills are rather impressive, Sunny. If this was four thousand years ago I may have even appointed you as my royal architect!
>
>
> **Ahmed** Such a perfect reproduction... It's like a window into another time!
>
>
> **Raneti** I suppose this one only cares for his own interests then.
>
>
> **Raneti** I once had someone similar in my employ, a royal officer who studied ancient history.
>
>
> **Sunny** That might have been Ahmed's ancestor! Or maybe Ahmed travelled back in time! Hehe.
>
>
> **Sunny** It's so cool that even back then, you were still interested in the past.
>
>
>
> **Raneti** One must always understand the past, if they are to prepare for the future.
>
>

 **After purchasing the "Sacred mural" decoration in the Mansion**

> **Raneti** This mural depicts my coronation.
>
>
> **Sunny** Wow, a coronation ceremony! That's awesome!
>
>
> **Ahmed** How old were you for this ceremony?
>
>
> **Raneti** I was fifteen.
>
>
> **Sunny** What was I doing when I was fifteen?
>
>
> **Raneti** The former Pharaoh was so proud. All the people were so happy...
>
>
> **Raneti** Oh, all of a sudden I feel a great pain in my heart...
>
>
> **Sunny** Ranetti, are you okay?
>
>
>
> **Raneti** I will manage. Let us continue.
>
>

 **After purchasing the "God's haven" decoration in the Mansion**

> **Raneti** Oh great Ginger God, why do you like this meagre place so?
>
>
> **Ginger** Meow!
>
>
> **Sunny** Raneti, what's up?
>
>
> **Raneti** No matter where I take her, she returns to this dull little corner!
>
>
> **Sunny** Cats tend to like small corners!
>
>
> **Raneti** That's why I decorated this place for her... But it's far too shabby for a deity!
>
>
> **Sunny** Haha, you're sure getting spoiled today, hey Ginger?
>
>
> **Ginger** Meow.
>
>
> **Ahmed** "Don't you dare call me Ginger. I am the great Ginger God!" That's what she's saying, I bet.
>
>
>
> **Ginger** Meow!
>
>

 **After purchasing the "Spiritual pillar" decoration in the Mansion**

> **Raneti** Earlier you mistakenly identified the obelisk - you thought it a tool to seal the darkness.
>
>
> **Ahmed** Yes, I remember. I'm glad you corrected me.
>
>
> **Raneti** Well, as a matter of fact, this stucture here actually served that role.
>
>
> **Ahmed** Wow...
>
>
> **Raneti** However, this is not its final form. It was typically decorated with "The Piece of the Rainbow", a jewel you now refer to as "Tears of the Pharaoh".
>
>
> **Raneti** The intent was for the energy of the jewels to add strength to the city.
>
>
> **Ahmed** What a shame. I would love to see it in action.
>
>
>
> **Sunny** Let's check the warehouse for some jewels later! Maybe we get lucky!
>
>

 **After purchasing the "Protection of the cat god" decoration in the Mansion**

> **Ginger** Meow!
>
>
> **Raneti** I'm so proud of both of you! We are restoring the palace to its former glory!
>
>
> **Sunny** We've just got the main body of the palace left. I can't wait to see how it turns out!
>
>
> **Raneti** Oh, my head...
>
>
> **Ahmed** Are you okay? Make sit down a minute.
>
>
> **Raneti** Do not fret, I will heal with ease once the palace is complete.
>
>
> **Sunny** Let's rebuild this for Raneti!
>
>
>
> **Ginger** What!
>
>

 **After purchasing the "The ancient golden palace" decoration in the Mansion**

> **Raneti** Our palace... Oh, my word...
>
>
> **Sunny** Aw, Raneti... She's so touched!
>
>
> **Raneti** It's just sad that our original structures did not survive for all to see.
>
>
> **Ahmed** But we are bringing them back! And it's all thanks to Raneti's magical return.
>
>
> **Raneti** Yes. I have waited an age for this.
>
>
> **Raneti** Soon all can appreciate this beautiful city I loved so much.
>
>
> **Ginger** Meow!
>
>
> **Raneti** But it is not yet perfect. We are still missing the most important piece...
>
>
>
> **Sunny** The most important... What is it?
>
>

 **After purchasing the "The ancient treasures" decoration in the Mansion**

> **Sunny** Wow, so shiny! Finally, a palace worthy of the name Golden City!
>
>
> **Ahmed** More treasures were found in the back of the shed.
>
>
> **Raneti** Oh! My head... It's throbbing...
>
>
> **Sunny** Raneti!
>
>
> **Raneti** I had expected this might happen. I think I must depart.
>
>
> **Sunny** What do you mean?
>
>
> **Ginger** Meow...
>
>
> **Raneti** I yearned for our history to never be forgotten. With every ounce of my soul I sought to make it so. Now in light of what you have built here, my purpose is fulfilled at last...
>
>
> **Ahmed** Raneti...
>
>
> **Raneti** I must continue on into the afterlife. I'm already four thousand years late, mind you!
>
>
> **Ahmed** I'll will devote myself to researching and promoting your people's history. You are in good hands with us, Raneti.
>
>
> **Sunny** And maybe find a way to come back for a visit someday!
>
>
> **Ginger** Meow... Meow meow!
>
>
>
> **Raneti** Goodbye, Renati. You will be missed.
>
>

 **After purchasing all decorations in the Mansion**

> **Sunny** Now that she's gone, it almost feels like a dream...
>
>
> **Ahmed** A dream that faded too soon...
>
>
> **Sunny** So, I guess you're leaving too?
>
>
> **Ahmed** I'd like to stay and examine the artifacts further.
>
>
> **Ahmed** If that's alright with you, of course.
>
>
> **Sunny** Absolutely! Not a problem at all! Just include my name on your research paper.
>
>
> **Ahmed** Haha! All right! Fair's fair.
>
>
> **Ginger** Meow, meow!
>
>
> **Ahmed** And I suppose you wanted to be included too, almighty Ginger God!
>
>
>
> **Sunny** What a swell summer this has been!
>
>

 **End of the Event**

> **Ahmed** So... Herein lies the truth about the misunderstood, Golden City...
>
>
> **Sunny** Ahmed! Have you finally finished your paper?
>
>
> **Ahmed** Indeed! Though as it turns out, I had enough material to fill an entire book!
>
>
> **Sunny** Then I just need to check the most important part! Hehe.
>
>
> **Ginger** Meow!
>
>
> **Sunny** Let's see... Is this the end here?
>
>
>  Lastly, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Sunny, who helped me recreate the Golden City in detail. Special thanks also to the almighty Ginger, who eased my fatigue with her cuteness. And of course Raneti, who upheld the truth of her history for over four thousand years.
>
>
> **Sunny** Wow! We got mentioned!
>
>
> **Ginger** Meow meow!
>
>
> **Ahmed** All that remains is to get this book published!
>
>
> **Sunny** I'll look forward to it! And please do come back soon!
>
>
> **Ahmed** Thank you, dear Sunny. From the bottom of my heart.
>
>
>
> **Ginger** Meow, meow! Meow!!
>
>

 **After purchasing the "Tears of the Pharaoh " decoration in the Mansion for money**

> **Sunny** Wow! Look at it sparkle!
>
>
> **Ahmed** These jewels are called "Tears of the Pharaoh".
>
>
>
> **Sunny** It's a bummer that something so beautiful was given so sad a name!
>
>

 **After purchasing the "Gazebo with mysterious powers " decoration in the Mansion for money**

> **Sunny** I bet something mysterious might happen if I rest under this gazebo!
>
>
> **Ahmed** Sharing the same space with ancient civilisations is mysterious in of itself!
>
>
>
> **Ginger** Meow!
>
>

 **After purchasing the "Stunning ancient art " decoration in the Mansion for money**

> **Sunny** The temple must be responding to the powers of the jewels!
> **Ahmed** It's more beautiful than I imagined. Words can't begin to describe...
>
>

 **After purchasing the "The glorious waterway" decoration in the Mansion for money**

> **Sunny** Wow! It's a whole new vibe with that fountain in here!
> **Ahmed** The fresh flowing water really demonstrates what a vibrant city it was!
>
>
