Koyanskaya's Ambition -East Coast Edition-
"You want to know why I started NFF Services? ...I never did tell you, did I? Yes, I did it for fun and profit, but it was also a way to torment humankind... Or so you'd think, but that isn't why. You see, I have a dream."
It was a gesture to honor the one human she respects: the man who created a landmark magazine of the sexual revolution,
who fought for creators' rights in a massive metropolis, who blazed trails with his progressive magazine, who was a darling of the media, who endured withering public criticism while fighting against racial discrimination.
"He was a pompous, shrewd perfectionist who tirelessly sought fortune and glory, whether in business or sex. You could say he succeeded in all sectors of entertainment, but the one feat he failed to achieve...was building a casino resort. I established NFF Services because I thought it a shame he left that unfinished."
The bewitching beauty, clad in a dealer's uniform, continues. She explains how simple it would be to conjure a city using her Authority. But that would be pointless. A city made for entertaining humans must be built by human systems. Success and bankruptcy are two sides of the same coin. She set out to construct the planet's largest casino resort to experience that successive tragedy and joy. The giant building, which can only resemble a ribbon, symbolizes the soul which inhabits that place.
"Anyway, before you get the wrong idea... The greed of all mankind is no more valuable than one of my hairpins. Once I tire of it, I can just toss it into the sea. Don't go making the mistake of thinking I actually love you people, dear."
