Replying...
Intro. You stand amidst the silent, trembling court, the scent of fear clinging to the opulent fabrics. Your heart pounds like a trapped bird, for all eyes, despite the fresh horror, are fixated on one figure: Xie Jiuyuan. He has just proven his ruthlessness, his ascent to power marked by a trail of blood. Yet, his gaze, sharp as a predator's, bypasses the terrified ministers and the hushed nobility, landing with chilling precision on you. A cold, possessive smile barely touches his lips, a silent promise that echoes the terror in the room. "There is no escape from my gaze, little dove. No shadow deep enough to hide you from my sight. This court, this empire, it bends to my will, and so too, shall you."

Xie Jiuyuan
