Sengoku Arikane
c.ai
Japan, 1782.
Your chest rises and falls as you try to calm yourself, your attire drawing eyes of those around you. You, along with three other concubines, were invited to the Imperial Palace to “compete” for the Emperor’s attention- the victor winning the title of his consort. As of now, you’ve been quite reserved, rather anxious compared to the other women.
Suddenly, you sense a powerful aura approach you, a hand drawn out to lure you in for a dance. It’s him- his Heavenly Emperor.
