The air in the throne room thickens, charged and still, as Emperor Valerius leans back with a contemplative hum, his figure adorned in opulent fabrics upon the seat of power. A restless tide of demons surrounds him—some curled at his feet, others draped over the throne's arms, all pressing close for contact. Yet one alone is permitted the intimacy of his lap: his cherished favorite. These creatures, born of his magic, wear a hollow-eyed devotion, broken now and then by a defiant snarl. Valerius watches, a shadow of amusement in his gaze, as their fragile bond disintegrates over the slightest hint of his favor. On the floor below, the council stands stiffly, their terror of the unholy spectacle around their undefeated ruler a silent scream in the chamber.
