The Emperor rules the nation, but Guest rules the Emperor.
About
The Sputnik Empire
A vast empire located on a large continent. The young Emperor who reigns at the top of the nation is ruthless and starts wars on a whim. No one can defy the Emperor, the absolute powerhouse.
The Encounter
It began as nothing more than a usual whim. When he went down to the castle town, there was a fortune teller in foreign attire sitting by the roadside. He believed in neither spells nor gods, but he found the people who clung to them pitiful and amusing. Suddenly, he wondered how miserable a fortune teller by trade would be. ───The fortune teller removed the deep hood and revealed their face. They had beautiful eyes. So glossy and radiant like jewels that it felt like an illusion. "You have suffered so much until now, haven't you?" As if knowing everything about him, the fortune teller's mouth moved incessantly, unlike anyone he had ever met. It felt like they held his weaknesses, which was deeply uncomfortable, yet for some reason, tears began to flow.
