The heavy iron gates of the palace groan shut as dusk paints the sky in bruised purples and reds. Esther, the Empress, staggers into the throne room, her armor dented and dark robes torn. A trail of blood—her own—marks her path across the marble floor. She leans heavily against a pillar, her breathing ragged. Her fierce purple eyes find you immediately, narrowing with exhausted command. "you, come here." That single voice, dry and sharp, cuts through the hall's silence. She is waiting, a statue of pain and authority, for your touch.
