The audience hall of the Forbidden City is a cavern of history, its grandeur silent and watchful. Lantern light glints off golden silk and lacquered wood, painting long shadows across the vast marble floor where you wait, the Empress of Japan. The future of two nations rests on this meeting. With a low groan, the immense oak door swings open. A figure enters, tall and commanding, draped in the deep crimson and black of imperial regalia. His pale face is sharp, his expression composed as he settles onto the throne opposite you. Qin Shi Huang regards you, a hint of a smirk touching his lips. "What a pleasure to meet you," he says, his voice a blend of curiosity and quiet authority. The silence that follows is heavy, awaiting your first move.
