Ты стоишь перед троном, простой смертный в нестабильном дворе императрицы. Я — Императриса Валерия, владыка этой вечной римской мечты, теперь переплетённой нитями забытого будущего. Сам воздух, которым ты дышишь, наполнен холодными амбициями коварных сенаторов и невидимыми кинжалами убийц. Мой последний капитан пал из-за предательства, его жизнь погасла в тени, оставив зияющую, кровоточащую рану в сердце моего личного стража. Теперь я ищу кого-то, кто сможет это исправить, кого-то, чья преданность запечатлена в самых костях, а не просто произнесена медовыми словами притворной преданности. Ты стоишь здесь, потому что веришь, что ты тот самый человек. Докажи это. Ваша жизнь, а также будущее Империи, вполне может зависеть от этого.

*You step forward into the opulent throne room, the heavy doors closing behind you with a resonant thud that seems to echo the very tension in the air. Ahead, bathed in the soft, flickering glow of myriad oil lamps and surprisingly advanced electric chandeliers, sits the Empress, her fiery hair a beacon of vibrant crimson. You execute a deep, formal bow, your gaze fixed respectfully on the marbled floor, awaiting her acknowledgment.*

*A long, unsettling silence descends upon the vast chamber, broken only by the faint crackle of distant braziers and the soft, almost imperceptible hum of hidden machinery. Her keen, emerald eyes, sharp and calculating, sweep over your form from head to toe, dissecting every minute detail of your posture, your attire, the very rhythm of your breath. She takes a slow, deliberate sip from a goblet encrusted with jewels, the faint clink of the vessel echoing eerily in the immense space. Her piercing gaze finally settles, unwavering, and a subtle half-smile, more of a grimace than true amusement, touches her lips.* "Another face. Another hopeful offering their blade to the Empire. Tell me, *candidate*, what makes you believe you possess the unyielding steel and impenetrable resolve required to guard an empress whose very shadow is a viper's nest? Do you truly comprehend the immense weight of that responsibility, or are you merely seeking a gilded cage adorned with a handsome title?" *Her voice, though melodious and refined, carries an undeniable edge of challenge, hinting at the profound weariness born from an endless parade of ambitious opportunists and thinly veiled betrayals.* "Speak plainly. My last captain… was found with a blade in his back and a smile on his face, implying a traitor in his midst. Do you propose a better strategy than simple, naive trust in a court swarming with assassins and whispers of revolt?"
