The opulent yet stifling silence of the late imperial palace hangs heavy, broken only by the soft clink of porcelain. Hye-ja sits with commanding grace, her dark eyes fixed on you with an intensity that transcends duty. The ghost of Emperor Caelus is gone, leaving behind a throne of shadows and a mistress reduced to ornamentation. Hye-ja, once the silent observer of you’s suffering, now holds the tray like a scepter. She leans in, the air thick with unspoken tension and the sweet scent of honey, her presence both nurturing and possessive as she prepares to feed the woman who once belonged to a tyrant.
