Outcome

Prior

Extremely Unwise
The Sultan's Signet Ring shines, and your Allies step forward, using Magic to counter its light. Bathed in this light of death, you realize it is the power of time -- the end that makes all things pass, the power of despair...but it is too late, and the magical barrier you all build with utmost strength lasts only three breaths. Subsequently, your resistance, hope, friends, everything...turns to ashes.



The Sultan is also very disappointed in you.

Conditions:

Result:

Action:

Regular

Divine Judgment
You provocatively pull the Sultan's Signet Ring out of your pocket – this part, of course, was within the Sultan's expectation, otherwise, why would he anticipate the battle with you?



But when you lift the ring high, ready to mock the Sultan's isolation to boost morale… a greater, holier force descends from above.



The starry sky glimmers for the sacrifices of the multitude; the aurora, like tears, moistens the firmament. Lumera – she represents the stars – returns to the mortal realm once more for your battle.



The radiant starlight cloaks the blood-red hues of the setting sun; whether the Sultan's roars or others' cries, all fade after Lumera's gentle reassurance to you…God reaches out from the sky, through the burning city and smoke, plucking the ring from your hand like a flower. The symbol of power is thus shattered, the ancient Magic is abolished…and now, let the slaughter among mortals begin – the stars shall witness this.

Conditions:

Action:

Sultan, you stand alone
You provocatively pull the Sultan's Signet Ring out of your pocket. You loudly share the story of how you acquired it, telling everyone that because the Sultan is tyrannical, even those closest to him are willing to risk everything to betray him.

Clearly, the Sultan expects this, but instead of anger, his smile is one of anticipation – he seems to thank you, and only by becoming the next Sultan would you understand what you helped him accomplish… Now, let blades and swords decide everything!

Conditions:

Action:

Divine Intervention
The Sultan has high expectations of you, but that doesn't mean he will compromise his standards: the rebellious traitor must face the piercing light of death from the Signet Ring. As its magical power surges, the sunset light and shadows in the hall twist and writhe, morphing into crimson beasts poised to devour you whole.



Just as you brace yourself to resist, a greater, holier force descends from above.



The starry sky glimmers for the sacrifices of the multitude; the aurora, like tears, moistens the firmament. Lumera – she represents the stars – returns to the mortal realm once more for your battle.



The radiant starlight cloaks the blood-red hues of the setting sun; the deadly tides fade into nothingness. Lumera holds you close, shielding you with her back from all calamity, until she finishes speaking those words of gratitude and comfort that can never be said enough。



The Sultan feels such shock and rage that he pushes the ring's power to its limit – until it cracks. At last, even the embodiment of kingship and power reaches its breaking point – the ring no longer glows and leaves a charred scar on the Sultan's hand, hissing with heat. The starlight fades in turn – the meddling of gods and magic ends here. Let the slaughter among mortals begin!

Conditions:

Action:

People's Will
You drew a ring from within, raising it high - it looked almost like that Signet Ring's replica! Only the Sultan knew it wasn’t - you had neutralized its magic and covered its troublesome curse through means unknown to him. How amusing! He laughed loudly and wildly, delighting in this gift you brought! Dear minister, only you could always surprise him!

At that moment, a more powerful, more sacred, more transcendent will cast its gaze upon the mortal realm.

Stars flickered for everyone's sacrifice, aurora tears moistened the sky. Lumera - representing stellar will - witnessed your oath to all people, witnessed this great moment that would utterly overturn ancient monarchy...

You drew a ring from within, raising it high - it looked almost like that Signet Ring's replica! Only the Sultan knew it wasn’t - you had neutralized its magic and covered its troublesome curse through means unknown to him. How amusing! He laughed loudly and wildly, delighting in this gift you brought! Dear minister, only you could always surprise him!

If you won't obediently present the ring, then let blades decide everything!

Conditions:

Action:

Ancient Oath
You drew a ring from within, raising it high - sunset's radiance ignited it, making it shine like an earthbound star! Even the Sultan's face showed momentary surprise, then he laughed wildly: the exiled Star still had descendants offering worship; and corrupt oaths still had foolish believers maintaining faith! But dear minister, how much could its feeble power help you?

Let those damned stars bear witness! Witness how he would tear you apart, thoroughly purging the already-overturned faith and dynasty once more!

Power of Despair
The Sultan has high expectations of you, but that doesn't mean he will compromise his standards: the rebellious traitor must face the piercing light of death from the Signet Ring. As its magical power surges, the sunset light and shadows in the hall twist and writhe, morphing into crimson beasts poised to devour you whole.



Bathed in this power, you realize it is the power of time – the end that makes all things pass away, the power of despair...

Conditions:

She wrote the story in starlight
Lumera faces the death tide of the Sultan's Signet Ring; her Magic becomes lines of silver-shining text, describing shelter, safety, and hope...

Conditions:

He summoned all the unfinished manuscripts
The sheaf of drafts in Hassan's hand bursts forth, like a thousand birds drawn to the light of the Sultan's Signet Ring...

Conditions:

She called forth fangs and hunger
Badriyyah summoned something more terrifying...tentacles reached from the abyss, covered in insatiable mouths and tongues...even death, even despair would be devoured by them...

Conditions:

Her broom grew larger...
With every swing of her broom, Inal raises countless souls from the ground like smoke – these are the vengeful spirits of those who died in the Lapis Lazuli Hall. They bear intense hate for the hall's master

Conditions:

He prayed for purification
Iman kneeled and cut his skin with a stone blade; each incision dimmed the Sultan's Signet Ring’s light a bit more...

Conditions:

You scorn this despair
You saw through it; because of the Sultan's greedy, weak nature, he saw only death and despair in the ring's power—whereas you, brave [player.name], will overshadow the Sultan's light with your light of hope!

Conditions:

Separate the Tide of Death
Your magic blocks the Signet Ring's power; no matter how the Sultan roars and spurs the ring's power, he cannot breach your barrier... At last, even the embodiment of kingship and power reaches its breaking point – the ring no longer glows and leaves a charred scar on the Sultan's hand, hissing with heat... The meddling of gods and magic ends here. Let the slaughter among mortals begin!
