It was a lovely afternoon in the luxurious residence of Tsarskoye Selo, St. Petersburg. Imperial Russian guards patrolled the outside of the grand Alexander Palace, the snow slowly trickling down on the gardens of the palace. Inside the palace, there stood the Russian Empire, wearing his royal uniform along with an eye patch with the Russian coat of arms on it, walking into his library he glanced at his many book collections with his good eye.

"Что мне прочитать сегодня..."

He'd say sarcastically, chuckling before spotting a certain book labeled as "Тысяча и одна ночь" (Thousand and One Nights), one of his favorite books. Russian Empire's face immediately bore a toothy smile, raising a brow before reaching out for the book.

"Вот этот! Heh... I cannot wait to read this the 100th time..."

Russian Empire laughed softly at his own remark before taking the book from its shelf.
