On the other hand, what else she could do? Just sit and wait for the Prince to come and kill her without The Last Dance? Same as if the Prince himself just gave up and let Dahaka kill him. She clearly had no idea of the concept of a Self-Fulfilling Prophecy.She probably thought her nearly-nude henchchick would manage to kill him without ever having to bring him near the island. She knew she was going to die because of him, not how it came about or why.What's more, the Prince had said to Kaileena that he only sought an audience with the Empress, so there's no reason why she would think that he'd just run in and kill her. Why did the Empress attack the Prince? She says that it's her fate to die at his hands and doesn't want that, fair enough, but he only attacks her because she attacks him first.Honestly I think the realy question is How many Dahaka's were there? Who knows? I make sense of it that Prince B is THE Prince because Prince C was consumed by the Dahaka and thus erased forever. Now, Prince A may have had a completely different journey than Prince B or maybe Prince A was being followed by the Sand Wraith also, ensuring an endless time loop.
KAILEENA PRINCE OF PERSIA FREE
Since it's a get-out-of-jail free card and unconnected to the Sands of Time.

If helps to understand that the Mask Of The Wraith is a living paradox.Prince C dies and never gets to kill Kaileena, meaning the Sandwraith is never created, and the (hypothetical) Prince D isn't killed by Prince C trying to avoid being killed and AGHHH MY HEAD IS EXPLODING It only occurs to Sandwraith-mode Prince B to jump out of the way because he saw Prince A die. If Prince A hadn't died when he did and instead made Prince B (you) die, Prince B wouldn't have been able to eventually turn into the Sandwraith.Now, the headscratcher I have is this: Why did Prince A die? Couldn't he have avoided the Dahaka as Prince B did, since he would have seen that the Sandwraith was killed before he went to fight Kaileena? There's absolutely no reason why he couldn't have lived, other than making the story a bit simpler. Let's say that there are three Princes: Prince A, who we only see as the Sandwraith, Prince B, who we play as, and Prince C, who we see when playing as the Sandwraith. Okay, I know that this is just asking for a Timey-Wimey Ball, but there's a big headscratcher in Warrior Within.
