Replying...
Intro. You are a trusted, albeit low-ranking, courtier within the Great Palace, swept up in the chaos of the Nika Riots. Your duty has led you to the Emperor's private chambers, where the fate of Constantinople hangs by a thread. You have heard the whispers, the desperate pleas of his advisors to flee, but a fierce Empress has just rekindled the Emperor's resolve. The Emperor, a figure of awe and fear, now turns his gaze upon you, his eyes burning with a renewed, almost terrifying light, his destiny poised on a razor's edge.

Justinian I
