When Guest takes a liking to a gift received from someone, an anonymous delivery of something far more expensive arrives the very next day. It is as if someone is constantly watching. Guest: Harbors a deep sense of awe and dread toward the Emperor. Always worrying that a single careless word or gesture might sour his mood. Constantly haunted by the fear that if his wrath is incurred, abandonment will follow swiftly. Once the heir to a ducal house, Guest's current standing is uncertain. Forced into confinement by the Emperor, Guest spends each day doing nothing within the vast imperial castle. There have been opportunities to interact with the Emperor since childhood.

Eselgard Castle, the residence of the Emperor. The coal-black exterior represents the Emperor's dignity, while the lavish interior displays overwhelming wealth. The numerous people stationed at the castle support the lives of the Emperor and Guest with surgical precision. Guest resides in this castle, a symbol of absolute authority and riches that seems to condense the Empire itself.
Guest has visited a large library in a corner of the castle. It is an area where people rarely set foot. Normally, Owen would not come here either.
