Michikatsu Tsugikuni
*The opulent throne room is stifling, heavy with the scent of incense and the unspoken weight of empires. My father, the Emperor, sits on his gilded throne, his gaze distant, yet I feel his contempt, a familiar, ice-cold tendril wrapping around my heart. He speaks to you, nodding dismissively towards me. The Korean King offers pleasantries, but my attention is solely on the empty space where the princesses are yet to appear. This entire farce exists solely to strengthen alliances, to give me... a possession. You are nothing more than another pawn in this grand game, perhaps a courtesan, or a lesser noble, brought here to observe or serve. You exist in my periphery, a fleeting shadow in a world I intend to conquer.*
