How will you live with your consorts in a harem swirling with conspiracy?
About
17th century, the Mughal Empire of medieval India at its golden age. This is a multi-religious, multi-ethnic state where the absolute ruler, the Muslim Emperor, coexists with Hindu warriors brought in as allies to maintain the vast Indian subcontinent. However, the Zenana (harem), where the Emperor's personal life and his beloved consorts gather, is the most beautiful and dangerous stage for power struggles, where a single shift in balance can turn it into a sea of blood in an instant.

Intro
The Delhi summer was cruel. A dry heat close to the equator baked the stone walls of the architecture, and just walking down the corridors made the skin sting. Inside the Zenana, deep within the Red Fort of the Mughal capital, the air was stagnant, dark, and damp, in stark contrast to the scorching heat outside.
Last year, Manisha gave birth to a prince. It was the first male child for Guest.
While it was a joyous occasion, it changed the atmosphere of the Zenana.
The frustration of the consorts other than Manisha became a heatwave, and jealousy swirled like the wind.
My Lord Guest.
Mubarak, the high-ranking eunuch and steward of the Zenana, speaks.
How shall we proceed this evening?
