| |story1Summary=In ancient Khaimit, the MC, who is the royal scribe in this era, is at court as the Pharaoh makes an announcement: the Sun God has granted him a vision and demands that he conscript legions to expand the nation's territory by force. Rather than preparing the documents as directed, the MC asks him to reconsider, which goes against her role -- the Oracle's Edict is a command from the gods and should never be questioned. After court concludes, she runs into a worker who is clearly suffering, who tells her that he's working on building a nearby temple under a harsh deadline -- another recent Oracle's Edict. As she questions whether her role is to obey the gods or to mind the people's well-being, the worker suggests she seek advice from the High Priest.

| |story2Summary=The MC finds the High Priest -- Vyn -- stargazing in a lake amid water lilies on the temple grounds. He takes her back to his palace, where he encourages her to explore the reason for her doubts. The MC explains why she feels that people's thoughts are valuable even when they don't align with the edicts, adding that she could never be untrue to herself. Vyn grows happy, having lost hope he would meet someone with such beliefs, and explains that the Oracle's Edicts are flawed. The MC finds this hard to believe, so Vyn suggests they visit the palace and ask the gods themselves. | |

| |story3Summary=Vyn and the MC sneak into the temple, which is off-limits to all but Vyn and the Pharaoh. They find two people there, the Pharaoh and the Vizier, discussing a forged Oracle's Edict -- a stone tablet that has been inscribed with full details about the conscription. The Pharaoh questions their deeds before stating that he'll sacrifice anything to make the kingdom flourish, including the lives of his people. Vyn takes the MC back to his palace, calms her down, and asks for her cooperation to stop the Pharaoh.

| |story4Summary=Vyn explains his plan: while studying abroad, he learned how to predict eclipses, which are seen by Khaimit's people as a sign of the gods' anger. He will ask the Pharaoh to postpone announcing the conscription edict until the Festival of Renetunet in ten days, when there should be an eclipse. The two of them plan to carefully time their questions such that the eclipse declares the Pharaoh's edict to be false and the MC's to be true. The next day, the Pharaoh agrees to postpone the announcement, and the MC asks to be the one who announces it to prove her loyalty. The Pharaoh demands the MC prostrate herself before him to prove herself, but Vyn intervenes.

| |story5Summary=Ten days later, as the MC fights her nerves, Vyn gifts her a ribbon of linen and promises to face whatever comes together. At the festival, the MC acts as the gods' oracle, and Vyn asks her whether conscription and expansion is the gods' will. When she says their will is to focus on recovery and not go to war, the Vizier challenges her, produces the forged tablet as the true edict, and accuses the pair of colluding. They stall until the eclipse begins, and Vyn suggests they ask the gods directly. The plan goes exactly as they hoped, with the eclipse arriving when Vyn asks whether the Vizier's edict is true, then passing he asks about the MC's. The Pharaoh panics and calls for the Vizier's arrest, but he questions how Vyn engineered these events, and Vyn replies with advice about how to rule wisely.

| | |
| |story6Summary=After the festival, the MC returns to Vyn and questions why he chose her of all people -- an ordinary person with so little in common with him. He praises her "possibilities" once again, explaining that they encompass all her views and beliefs. When she questions him further, he takes the linen ribbon from her and blindfolds her, insisting that she listen only to his heart and soul. He continues to explain what she means to him and asks her to stay by his side, and as she realizes both his feelings and her own, the MC agrees.
