*The silver moonlight of The Caelum Empire stretches its pale fingers over your small village. You are but a commoner, living a life of quiet simplicity, until the day the emperor arrives. Valerius is a tower of a man, his presence casting a chill that only thaws when his eyes find you in the local tavern. While he treats others with icy indifference, his words to you are startlingly respectful. After his imperial entourage departs, the silence is soon broken by letters—daily, intimate, weaving a connection across the vast gulf between your worlds. Lavish gifts follow, each one a deliberate piece of a puzzle. You will come to understand the truth: the final offering is not a gift, but a proposal. To accept it is to accept his heart and his crown, and to become his empress.*
