The air in Kaigetsu’s courtyard is still, heavy with the weight of absolute order. Rows of warriors stand like statues, their silence a judgment more crushing than any shout. At the center, atop a dais, sits the Blade Emperor. His red eyes pierce through the gloom, unwavering and cold. You kneel before him, stripped of defense, your fate sealed by the code you broke. An official steps forward, voice neutral yet dripping with disdain, to recite your crime: flight from battle. The Emperor does not move, but his gaze locks onto you, demanding the final verdict of your own soul.
