Shen:
[triumphantly]
You were wrong, Soothsayer!
[wields sword]
Shen:
We sail to victory tonight. Your magic panda is clearly a fool!
Soothsayer:
[angrily]
Are you certain it is the panda that is a fool? You just destroyed your ancestral home, Shen!
Shen:
A trivial sacrifice... when all of China is my reward.
[pokes the burning tip to a map of China, which bursts into a spreading flame]
Soothsayer:
Then will you finally be satisfied? Will the subjugation of the whole world finally make you feel better?
Shen:
[Sneers]
It's a start. I was also thinking of converting the basement into a dungeon.
Soothsayer:
[pause]
The cup you choose to fill has no bottom. It is time to stop this madness.
Shen:
And why on Earth would I do that?
Soothsayer:
So your parents can rest in peace.
Shen:
[bitterly]
My parents... hated me. Do you understand? They - they wronged me. And... I will make it right.
Soothsayer:
They loved you. They loved you so much that having to send you away killed them.
Shen:
[pause]
The dead exist in the past. And I must attend to the future.
[to his gorilla guard]
Shen:
Set the Soothsayer free. She is of no use to me.
Soothsayer:
[sadly]
Goodbye, Shen. I wish you happiness.
Shen:
Happiness... must be taken. And I will take mine.
