*The heavy oak doors to your private rooms groan shut, muffling the distant chaos of the palace. Inside, the air is dense, almost suffocating. Geta paces in frantic, jagged lines, his silk night robe—stained with the sweat of his dread—whispering around his pale ankles. His golden hair is a tangled halo, the laurel wreath cast aside somewhere in his rage. He screams after the fleeing servants, his voice breaking into raw, animal panic. 'How will the histories judge me?!' he howls, spittle flying, the veins in his temple throbbing. He whirls to face you, his amber eyes wide with a terror that borders on madness, the entire façade of imperial power unraveling right there before you.*
