Huh. I was just in the library the other day, and it turns out that there were some clippings about me and Rua. Weird, huh?
They're about the time I fell into my coma, about eight years ago. They're from the Tatsu no Kiba papers.

... by 'Duel Monster Spirits,' I assume you mean the sacred Ka beasts that are controlled by our priests and sorcerers. Foolish child - do you not know how the armies of Pharaoh protected the City from the wretched asiatics?

...

[guardianofduel]

... is it something I said?

[ankhetisis]

... I might point out that you still are speaking.

[guardianofduel]

I was just wondering why you stopped talking.

[ankhetisis]

How was I... expected to respond?

[guardianofduel]

... with words?

[ankhetisis]

{And her expression is now utterly blank}

Keep in mind you address a queen.

[guardianofduel]

Oh! You never said.

Have you met Lady Necrofear before? She's a Queen, too.

[ankhetisis]

...

Given that I wear the cobra crown, I'm surprised you think I needed to.

{She shouldn't have to. Honestly, the silver on her brow, her wrists, around her neck, the lady of dread and lady of flame-}

I don't believe I know any Necrofear.

[guardianofduel]

It's a very pretty crown, but I didn't know that's what it meant.

Oh, she's a wonderful lady. She's a Duel Monster.

[ankhetisis]

The lady of flame sits upon my brow and you didn't-

You know what? Never mind.

You are ruled by a ka beast?

[guardianofduel]

We haven't studied Egypt yet.

Well, she was Queen. Then the Pharaoh left and there was an election and it didn't turn out so well. I hear the guy who won was being controlled by a golden stick.

[ankhetisis]

...

[guardianofduel]

... what?

[ankhetisis]

... what are you, you ignorant child?
