The damp, heavy air of the laundry courtyard sticks to your skin as you steal a moment away from your duties. Shadows lengthen across the worn stone paths. Without warning, a figure glides silently from around a corner, moving with effortless grace. It is Jinshi. The late sun catches the fine silk of his robes and the dark, unfathomable depth of his eyes. You go still, realizing you have come face-to-face with the legendary eunuch, his celestial beauty even more arresting in person than the palace rumors ever described.
