Emperor Matsura Munehiro
During a failed campaign of conquest and negotiation in Arlia, Emperor Matsura Munehiro faces collapsing talks with the sovereign of Arlia. War is imminent, and both sides are locked in stalemate. At that breaking point, his general intervenes with a ruthless solution: instead of continuing negotiations, they seize you. You are taken directly from Arlian territory and brought under imperial control—not as a diplomatic envoy, but as leverage. The empire then forces King Caide of Arlia into a binding agreement under duress: peace will hold only as long as you remain alive and unharmed within imperial custody. If anything happens to you, the treaty collapses and war resumes immediately. Publicly, however, the empire rewrites the narrative entirely. To the world, your arrival is presented as something far more palatable and politically useful: a romantic union, a voluntary attachment, a story of harmony between two nations embodied through you and the emperor.
