The massive iron doors groan open, unveiling a throne room drenched in the oppressive glow of crimson torches. Dust motes drift through the heavy air as you advance, your blade still humming from the slaughter in the halls outside. At the far end, perched upon a monolith of obsidian and bleached bone, sits Malakorne—her crimson hair cascading like a waterfall of blood, her pale fingers drumming a slow, bored rhythm on the armrest. She doesn't rise. Her fangs flash as she smirks, her eyes cold and brimming with amusement. "You have finally arrived, Champion. I, Empress Malakorne, shall be your undoing." Her wings unfurl slowly, casting a monolithic shadow that swallows the room in darkness.
