Beach (Present)
Prince: Despite all the warnings that I would fail, I have vanquished the Empress and prevented the creation of the Sands of Time. I have defeated the Dahaka, and fate itself! It▓s time to find a way off this rock. No, no, no, NO!
Catacombs (Present)
Prince: What is this?! I saw the Empress die! She never created the Sands! There should be no Dahaka┘ And yet it still pursues me! What has gone wrong?
I am┘ The architect of my own destruction┘ So this is it. What is written in the Timeline cannot be changed┘ Come for me, then! In my quest to destroy the Sands of Time, I have been the one to create them! Let all who read this know the courage and valor of those who fought and fell for the Maharaja. We sought the power of the Sands of Time┘most found only death┘ myself among them┘ But the Mask of the Wraith gave me a second chance. To travel back through time and change my fate┘This mural shows the impossible┘ But the Mask of the Wraith gave me a second chance. There may still be hope. You had your chance to take me! You won▓t get another.
Prison (Present)
Prince: A sword┘ Now how do I reach it?
Prison (Past)
Prince: Good, good. This should make things easier.
Library (Past)
Prince: Kaileena▓s library┘ What knowledge must be contained within! I suspect there is much she could have taught me┘ Had things gone another way.
Throne room (Past)
Prince: The Sands of Time┘ After all I▓ve done to be rid of them, still they haunt me┘ Even if I am to find the Mask of the Wraith, fate will find a way to reclaim me! I will only be given a second chance┘to fail! I am overlooking something! I must think this through┘This wall. It looks similar to the ones I saw on my way back to the prison. It worked earlier┘
Portal (Past)
Prince: What if┘ What if Kaileena didn▓t die in the Past, but in the Present? The Sands would be created┘ But the Maharaja would fail to find them. They▓d never be brought to his palace and I would never release them. The Dahaka will have no business with me! My goal is clear, then: use the Mask to force Kaileena into the Present where I can kill her. It is simple! Or sounds simple┘
Sacred caves (Present)
Prince: I┘ I have become that thing!
It wasn▓t trying to kill me┘ but warn me! Warn me of Kaileena▓s betrayal, of my own role in creating the Sands┘ And in the end it died! I died! The Mask is part of me now. And if the Maharaja▓s tale is true, I will remain this way until my other self perishes. Only then can I remove the Mask.
Central Hall (Past)
Kaileena: ┘Too soon┘
Shahdee: His ship approaches. It is just as the Timeline foretold. I am sorry, Empress.
Kaileena: You have done as I said?
Shahdee: The crew is assembled and the ship is ready.
Kaileena: Then go now. I have activated the Island▓s portals. You will travel to his time. Engage him at sea. And kill him. Kill them all!
Shahdee: As you wish.
Kaileena: I do not appreciate your tone.
Shahdee: You know you cannot change the Timeline. You cannot escape your fate. Yet you send me on this doomed mission.
Kaileena: If you fail and he reaches the Island, you will find death┘ at my hands. No GO!!
Prince: It is odd┘ Kaileena and I are not so different. Each hoping to change our fate. A shame that one of us will have to die.
Garden (Present)
Prince: I must find my way back to the Throne room.
Sacrificial Altar (Past)
Shahdee: I tried my best, Empress┘ He was too strong a fighter.
Kaileena: He reached the Island?!
Shahdee: Worse - he followed me through a portal. He is here, now, in our time.
Kaileena: How dare you stand before me and admit failure! You should have died to protect me.
Shahdee: I▓ll not give my life for this foolishness. If you want try to change the Timeline, you can do it yourself!
Kaileena: After┘ Everything I▓ve done┘ How dare you┘
Prince: I already know how this ends┘
Fortress Entrance (Past)
Prince: I had saved my own life┘ And I did not even know it!
Foundry (Past)
Prince: If I cannot reach the platform┘Perhaps I can bring the platform to me!
Library (Past)
Prince: Just try and catch me!
Mystic caves (Past)
Prince: Die, you bastard!
Prince: I can barely see through this! Best I watch my back. Who knows what▓s lurking in this mist┘
Prince: That door! The switch that opens it has to be around here somewhere. If only I could see through this fog.
Mechanical pit (Past)
Other self: What do you want from me?!
Prince: My ⌠other■ self still works to activate the Towers. There is ample time to return to the Throne room and await the opening of the door!
Prince: The Towers! I┘ He has activated them. Am I too late? I have come too far to fail!
Central Hall (Past)
Prince: Tell me I am not too late. All is happening as before. NO! I must not let him pass!!
I▓m sorry┘The Mask. It▓s loose!
Hourglass Chamber (Past)
Prince: Time is running low. You ready? I▓ve been thinking, Kaileena┘ There is little for you on this Island, and there will be less still ones I▓ve stood before your mistress. Come with me to Babylon! You▓ll have a chance to begin a new life, free from the evils of this place.
Kaileena: I am sorry Prince, but I cannot take you up on your offer.
Throne room (Past)
Prince: It doesn▓t have to end this way! Come with me┘ into the Present.
Kaileena: So you can kill me in your own time, instead of mine? I am sorry Prince, but only one of us can cheat fate today!
Prince: Kaileena┘Empress┘Listen!
Kaileena: No! You listen: the Timeline has said you will kill me but I will change the Timeline!
Sacred Caves (Present)
Prince: I know what you▓ve seen what you think you▓ve seen in the Timeline.
Kaileena: Then you know I have no choice.
Prince: There is always a choice, Kaileena.
Kaileena: Then I choose to live┘ And for you to die!
The first End of Story
Prince: Don▓t you see?! We can change our fate! This isn▓t what happened the first time we fought┘
Kaileena: The first time┘?
Prince: That▓s what I▓ve┘ been trying to tell you! If you▓d┘ just let me explain!
Kaileena: No more words, Prince! If you▓ve only things to say and nothing to show then let us finish this!
Prince: ┘I▓m sorry┘
Kaileena: I WILL KILL YOU!!
Prince: I do not want to hurt you, Kaileena┘ But I cannot allow that to happen!
Prince: I▓m sorry┘ If only it didn▓t have to end this way┘
Kaileena: You▓ve┘ saved yourself it seems, my Prince. But still I become the Sands. There will be others like the Maharaja: braggarts and fools who will quest for the Sands and find them. My vengeance will be unleashed ones more on your world...
Prince: No. NO! How is this possible? The Sands are here in the Present, not in the Hourglass!
It is the Sands that should no longer exist in the Timeline. The Dahaka is doing its job! Not only have I saved myself, I have eliminated the Sands of Time! What? What do you want? The Amulet! The last relic of the Sands of Time. Can it be? I have changed my fate!
Soon, I will be home┘
Old man: ⌠You cannot change your fate. No man can■.
Prince: What have I done?
The second End of Story
Prince: STAND DOWN! I DO NOT WANT TO KILL YOU!
Kaileena: Even if you don▓t want to kill me, you will┘The Timeline demands it!
Prince: No, Kaileena┘ You can change your fate. I have done so. A terrible beast was destined to take my life. But I have freed myself from┘
Kaileena: What is that thing?
Prince: No. NO!!! How is this possible? I have stopped Kaileena from dying in the Past. There are no Sands in the Hourglass! It is Kaileena who does not belong in this Timeline. The beast is after her now. In brining her here, I have sentenced her to death. This is all your fault! Could this be? This sword┘ It seems to protect me from the Dahaka┘ Perhaps the beast is not so invincible after all┘
Prince: Together we built this vessel┘ Together we left the Island┘ And together we return to Babylon!
?: All that is yours is rightfully mine. And mine, it will be!
Old man: ⌠Your journey will not end well. You cannot change your fate. No man can■.
