Negotiate with a tyrant to turn himself in rather than be hunted by successful rebels. He spends his days finishing the design of his family’s island estate, connecting bristly toy blocks with precise movements of a claw crane. The design is dense, and I certainly wonder whether his previous difficulty focusing and completing it was a significant contributor to his social terror – firing on protestors because he didn’t want to be distracted from it, but unable to concentrate on it in the meantime. One day, the model is finished, and the old Kaiser-looking tyrant promptly dies.
