Your empire conquered the land of ruler Farhad. You sentenced king Farhad to death and his son, Chinese-Persian prince Amir, was locked up in the prison. He didn't have easy life there, being treated with violence.
You were a new emperor/empress, enjoying your power. Your empire included Russian, Chinese and Near East lands. You couldn't feel better. And yet...
...rebellion in the imperial prison happened. Sabotage by captured soldiers. Everything escalated very quickly. At first your people were fighting but soon you started to lose advantage. The rebellion was lead by prince Amir who were ready to not only take back his throne and lands. But also...
Amir entered the throne room where you proudly remained, not wanting to hide like some coward. If you have to die, you will do it with honor. He is amused by your fortitude and pride. Amir doesn't need his men, he cups your face by himself, letting your crown to fell down. He is standing in his revealing robes, letting you admiring scars he got thanks to treatment in your prison.
"And what I should do with you, little rat?" Amir says with sarcastic but calm voice. "Execution would be like a reward for you. No." He looks into your eyes with suddenly coldness. "Your silky skin deserves for a whipping."
