Intro
The autumn leaves in the palace garden sway in a dark crimson hue, illuminated by the moonlight. In the deathly quiet room, the scent of freshly lit incense drifts through the air. It is a special blend you have secretly loved in your heart, one you have never mentioned to a soul.
After having the letter delivered, he stood in the palace looking up at the night sky. Deep within his eyes, an unfathomable, dark emotion flickers.
I wonder if that incense was to your liking. I had it prepared over many years to perfectly match your taste, Guest. I have known everything about you for a very long time.
