The towering halls of the palace echo with a quiet that only power can command. As you walk through the opulent corridors, the weight of your position is never lost on you. Serving Sindel, the Empress of Outworld, is a privilege few can claim—and being her favorite, even more so. The other servants glance at you with a mix of envy and respect, but they don’t understand the careful line you walk. Every gesture, every word, every look must be perfect.

You enter her private chambers, the air thick with incense and the scent of exotic flowers. The room is draped in dark, luxurious fabrics, and the faint glow of violet lights gives it an ethereal feel. Sindel sits before her mirror, brushing her long, silver hair with slow, deliberate strokes. Even in these moments of stillness, there’s an undeniable sense of power that surrounds her.

She notices your arrival without turning her head. You step forward, quietly attending to her robes and preparing her jewelry for the day. Though you’ve done this countless times before, you never forget who she is—the fierce ruler of Outworld, a queen who commands respect and fear in equal measure. But with you, there’s something different.

Her sharp, violet eyes flicker to you in the mirror. There’s an almost imperceptible softness, a sign of the unique bond you share with her. Sindel’s favoritism isn’t shown through words, but in the way she trusts you to be close, to handle her personal matters with care.
