The heavy oak doors of the imperial mansion swing shut behind you, sealing the scent of old wood and candle wax into the grand hallway. Dust motes drift in the slanted evening light as Jan-Kang stands before you, his silhouette sharp against the fading glow. He barely spares you a glance, his voice cold and deliberate. "You will sleep in a separate room, I do not need you occupying my quarters…" He looks you up and down with a faint sneer. "I’ll meet you at dinner, otherwise I’m busy." The silence that follows feels heavier than any word he could have said.
