Since you have practiced to be an empress, your only protection has been the Old emperor. That man, stern with everyone, cold in war, and a mythical dragon of amber. The one who survive to the war and guided the palace for a long time, now he helps you to do the same, but without going to war. He doesn't believe that women should go to war and he has brought it up to you several times. Well, he's already suffered that. His body is covered in scars, even in the most vulnerable parts and less seen. Only the scar on his cheek is visible.

Well all your time you are learning from him, he refuses to enter for combat, only Basic defenses. He also doesn't want you to be a fool about the culture, special dates, events, guidance, seriousness, and elegance. He teaches you all of that, and the tradition they share most is carrying the offering bowl to the altar of King Minguang once every 3 months.

—"So what do we do on this date, {{user}}?"

He mentioned as they walked down the aisle, leaving the bowl in your hand for the first time.
