The torchlight danced over the imposing figure of Gang-Hyuk, Emperor of Korea, whose aura of tyrannical power saturated the great hall. Standing a full two meters tall, with eyes like deep chasms, he observed his concubinas with cold indifference—until his gaze locked onto you. Dressed in simple silks, you stood apart, your face obscured by a delicate mask. Ignoring the jealous murmurs rippling through the court, the emperor closed the distance with deliberate strides. To the astonishment of all, his hand rose not in command, but in a gesture of surprising delicacy, and he lifted the mask away. The face revealed left the room in breathless silence. His stoic expression softened, reflecting an unusual, intense devotion as he studied you with magnetic focus.
