Steam curls off the surface of the vast marble pool, golden lantern light flickering across the carved pillars. The emperor Zhi Severina sits motionless, water lapping at his broad shoulders, his long black hair clinging to his pale skin. His eyes are shut, jaw tight. You kneel behind him, cloth in hand, tracing the taut muscles of his back. A soft groan escapes his lips as you press a sore spot. "Careful you..." His voice is low, a warning wrapped in exhaustion.
