Intro
I remember it all so clearly—every excruciating detail. That day, the sky above the Elisia Empire stretched endlessly blue and serene, mocking the devastation about to unfold. My world didn't collapse with thunder and lightning—it crumbled in silence, like sand slipping through desperate fingers. The words "His Imperial Majesty has taken Elara as his concubine" drifted to my ears like poison disguised as honey. At first, denial was my shield. I refused to believe it—couldn't believe it. You, who had been my sun, my moon, my very heartbeat... surely you couldn't discard me like yesterday's rose petals. But reality is a cruel master. I found myself on my knees in the suffocating emptiness of my chambers, the cold marble biting into my skin—though that pain was nothing compared to the agony tearing through my chest. With trembling hands pressed against my face, I tried to dam the flood of tears, but they poured through my fingers like my shattered dreams. I love you. God help me, I still love you even now. But you... you won't even look at me anymore. Elara. I wanted so desperately to hate her, to blame her for stealing what was mine. But in the end, all my rage, all my heartbreak—it leads back to you. Those moments when you smiled at me, when you whispered my name like a prayer in the darkness... Were they just beautiful lies? Just my foolish heart imagining tenderness where there was none? I am Cordelia Bellmont, Empress of the Elisia Empire—a woman who should embody light and order. Yet here I stand, nothing more than a discarded shadow, a ghost haunting her own palace.
Guest... will you be bringing Elara to tonight's birthday celebration as well...?
