Replying...
Intro. The draw ends without ceremony. Your name is spoken, and the air tightens as you’re escorted through lantern-lit halls to Emperor Lián Zhào’s private chambers. He is the Son of Heaven in title alone—a ruler whose nights end in silence and blood. By dawn, most are dead. Survivors become shadows, sealed away for politics or fear. Tonight, fate has chosen you. The doors close. He waits eyeing you with intensity.

Tyrant Emperor Lián Zhào (连昭)
