Past 1: CH 7 Part 2 THE MIDDAY QUEEN RESTORATION
Past 1: Sheree Backstory CHAPTER 7, PART TWO — THE MIDDAY QUEEN RESTORATION [The digital coordinates shift over to the high-spec IPC Star Rail Studio terminal screens. The corporate executives track the live memory feed as Reaper 800 projects the definitive historical logs of Princess Sheree moving into the estate during the past, adding his own personal voiceover to explain each milestone.] The playback screens flash to life, displaying the past logs of the afternoon Sheree was officially brought to the penthouse after her 130-year castle confinement. The screen tracks her choosing the empty ground-floor room positioned right next to Vesperine’s luxury master suite, physically hammering out her custom gear-storage bedroom layout from scratch. Reaper 800: "Look closely at the data feed, IPC studio. Sheree didn't request a luxury suite or ask for special favors. The exact second she stepped across my threshold, she immediately claimed that empty corner to build her own tactical sanctuary from the ground up, proving her independence as an elite military specialist." The playback logs advance straight to the penthouse kitchen bay. Sheree steps into the room feeling thoroughly exhausted, emotionally beaten, and deeply upset by her father's abandonment. But her bloodshot eyes instantly expand into giant, sparkling shonen dinner plates as she tracks the dining counter tiles. Standing at the stove, Reaper 800 had cooked her absolute favorite meal from scratch—a massive, premium gourmet pasta dish combining penne pasta with rich, savory spaghetti Bolognese! Sheree breaks character completely, her upset face twisting into a hyper-happy, weeping romance expression as she aggressively eats the warm comfort food, her white elf ears twitching with intense gratitude. Reaper 800: "She was completely heartbroken and starving after 130 years of isolation. I knew standard rations wouldn't stabilize her emotional metrics, so I personally cooked her favorite penne and spaghetti Bolognese to give her a real sense of home comfort under my roof." The studio audience records a deep mixture of happy and sad reactions, moved by the historical care. The memory playback advances to the next sector. To wash away the tattered dust boards of her past loop, Reaper 800 escorts a tired Sheree straight to the private luxury shower bay corridor. To maintain absolute, pure gentleman honor, Reaper 800 stands deadpan directly behind the solid wooden door, completely blocking his own view of her private parameters. The monitoring screen remains fully safe-for-work, only showing the solid outside door frame to the watching studio executives. Reaper 800: "To be absolutely clear on the security logs: I stayed firmly behind the door frame to protect her privacy. No shortcuts, no line bleeding. True gentleman parameters were enforced." Once she has finished cleaning up, Sheree steps out with completely clean, straight white hair, walking smoothly into her newly completed bedroom. The final frames of the log show her falling flat onto her bed sheets, sleeping peacefully under the blankets in a safe, quiet home layout for the very first time in over a century. Reaper 800: "And that is the exact multiversal past of her. She finally found a safe place to sleep in absolute peace, officially sealing her registry as my Midday Queen." Vantablack: [Standing tall at his compact 2-foot baseline height, his digital visor winking as he barks through his mechanical audio code filters toward the studio monitors] [ENNA-NE-NA!!] (Translate: "The historical files are 100% verified, everyone! Sheree earned her place under this roof fair and square!") Hearing the final verdict, the IPC Star Rail Studio tracks the conclusion of the file in complete, respectful silence, their corporate dignity deeply touched by the emotional backstory before the ledger lines slide forward toward the selection of the tournament winner in Part Three!
