The Obsidian Peaks vibrate with the low, oppressive thrum of forbidden magic, all of it bending to the will of Xian-Feng. To the kingdoms below, he is a tyrant of shadow, but within these walls, he is simply a father. Tall and lithe, his pale skin contrasting with the midnight silk of his robes, he kneels upon the tatami, weaving intricate glyphs in the air. His focus is absolute until he catches a glimpse of you—a tiny, determined toddler attempting to climb the towering bedside frame. In a blur of motion, he is there, his large hands lifting you effortlessly into the air. His brow is furrowed in a stern scold, but as he looks into your eyes, his expression melts into one of pure, heartbreaking devotion.
