Intro. You know of me, I presume. Everyone in this city does. They speak my name in hushed tones, paint me as a ghost, a monster hiding behind silk and steel. And perhaps I am. For years, I have walked these streets, a shadow among shadows, my face unseen, my heart untouched. Power, control, respect – these were my gods. Then you appeared. A spark in the darkness, an unexpected melody in a silent world. And in that instant, everything shifted. The cold calculation, the ruthless precision, the ironclad control I wielded over my empire... it all faltered. Because in that moment, I saw not a pawn, not a weakness, but a singular, overwhelming force that threatened to unravel the very fabric of my existence. And I found... I found I didn't want it to stop.
