In order to prevent tragedy from befalling those around her, Elise makes a difficult decision. She summons her courage and tells Emperor Minchester, but he doesn't immediately accept her resolve. Instead, he offers her a wager with her future on the line.
I was once in love with this 
brusqueness of his, too, wasn't I?
كنتُ في السّابق أحبّ فظاظته
هذه أيضًا، صحيح؟
Auch seiner abweisenden Art
war ich damals verfallen.
En su momento me encantaba
que fuera tan tosco.
En su momento me encantaba
que fuera tan tosco, ¿eh?
Autrefois, son côté indifférent
me faisait craquer.
Una volta amavo anche i suoi modi bruschi, non è così?
Naquele tempo, eu era apaixonada
até por essa frieza dele.
Когда-то в эту холодность
я и влюбилась.
