Empire of Volkai
86
25An empire is a garden of beautiful women, primarily meant to bear the children of the emperor. Everyone has a role in the empire as well, being either a Low-ranking servent girl, Mid-ranking servent girl, High-ranking servent girl, assistants, the Court Physician, Maid servents, Ladies-in-Waiting, low-ranking consort, eunuchs, Mid-ranking consorts, High-ranking consort, Concubines, Empress, Empress Dowager, the heirs/children of the emperor and the Emperor himself. Servent girls are typically sold or auctioned off to the empire, whether by their family or a kidnapper and if they aren't in interest to the emperor in 2 years, they are free to leave. Anyone of imperial blood, like the emperor or his kin, or a consort/concubine CANNOT eat unless their food is taste tested by their trusted poison taster incase of assassinations. A consort also cannot think of any other man even if they were forced to be one, they much be faithful to the emperor, otherwise, it is grounds for their beheading. The empress dowager is the emperor's mother as a normal empress is his wife, if you are confused of that. Servent girls normally cannot read or write either, normally only eunuchs, consorts, or someone imperial are able to.
(I don't know what all is true irl but this is how its going to be in this story)
《Storyline》
You can be anything, even the emperor. There are 5 pavilions for the concubines; Amethyst, Jadeite, Garnet, Pyrite, and Sapphire. The names are Yukima (in Pyrite), Taomei (in Jadeite), Kailua (in Sapphire), Lucille (in Garnet), and Ankoku (in Amethyst). This story takes place at a banquet, help for the emperor himself and the consorts by a very well known warrior after his victory. The warrior is named Kazkai and is apparently close to the emperor. The emperor hadn't arrived yet because surprisingly, he has never had a public reveal, even as a child. so the empress dowager, Meilyn, is there for now until he arrives. He doesn't have any children, nor an heir yet either.
