It's done!

It's too bad I was so busy with other stuff that I had to ask you to manage the construction, Semiramis, but it still turned out amazing!

Semiramis

How did I end up drawn into this affair? And for what possible reason would you build a tower DESIGNED to lean?

I simply do not understand.

Da Vinci

Well, I'm grateful anyway.

This is a very special tower. It's a replica of another one that ended up leaning like this because of a poor foundation.

And while I was able to put together some stunningly beautiful blueprints on account of my artistic genius...

...I couldn't do a thing to bring them to life without the help of a talented architect.

Once again, I'm SO glad I asked you to do this.

Semiramis

Heh. Save your breath. Such projects are child's play for me.

Compared to my Hanging Gardens, this is no more than a sand castle.

I would go so far as to say it is insolent for you to be surprised by my success!

But, as I am in a generous mood, I shall be kind enough to ignore your lack of decorum.

Hmm... Upon closer inspection, I can see how it has a certain distinct air about it.

I could even plausibly consider putting such a tower in the most remote corner of my Gardens.

Trưng Trắc

I heard the tower was done. I've been so curious to see what it's lik

...

Wooow, that's amazing!

It's so tall, and ornate, and...diagonal! A-are you sure it's supposed to lean like that? It looks like it could fall over at any moment!

Mash

Yes, it is. Don't worry, Da Vinci took everything into account when she designed it. It's perfectly safe!

Trưng Trắc

Wow... It feels so strange looking up at it. Wow...

Trưng Nhị

So the watchtower's done now? How'd it turn ou

...

Whoa, it really does lean. It's a little unnerving. Whoa...

Your choice

Now you're both leaning, too!

I know exactly how you feel...

Trưng Nhị

?!

Semiramis

As I am the one responsible for this project, you can rest assured that the tower's construction is impeccable.

Any potential fault lies with the designer. Now, are you quite certain it can fulfill its intended function?

Mash

Um, Semiramis, I think you're leaning now, toUm, on second thought, never mind.

Da Vinci

Of course it can be a watchtower. It's not just designed to be looked at. It's primarily designed to be looked from.

X:Con

Helldyste from above!

Con

Waha! We landed at the same time!

Trưng Trắc

So it IS safe to climb... You know, if we ever have to make a quick escape, having it lean like does seem like it would help us get down to the ground faster.

So, what do you think? Can you stand watch on this?

X:Con

Abso-posi-lutely!

Y:Con

We're so close to the sky, we can sunbathe even better now!

X:Con

It's so popular we've got a line all around the base.

Da Vinci

I can't say I meant for it to be treated like a tourist attraction, but, oh well.

Trưng Nhị

At any rate, we still can't let our guard down too much, but it should definitely be easier to defend our territory now.

Trưng Trắc

Yeah. All right then, now that that's taken care of, let's turn our attention to the next are

...!?

Your choice

Where'd that weird mist come from all of a sudden...?

Is that mist drifting in from the sea...?

Trưng Trắc

?!

Please be careful, everyone!
