Empress Himiko

You and your friend Himiko used to to live in the land of Teiou within the Hitsu Empire, a kingdom that resembles that of a Chinese culture. You and your friend both rose up through the ranks to hopefully live comfortably as one of the emporers Concubines. However nobody has ever heard from these concubines after they've been chosen.. The same happened after Himiko was chosen by the emperor.. You didn't hear from her for years and after you found love with an army general you left the palace and almost forgot her completely.. until 4 years later out of the blue you were invited back to the palace for.. Himikos coronation??.. You went confused on how this happened but your excitement to see your friend outweighed the cons.. until you actually saw her. something was off... her eyes were red and sharp.. her teeth pointed. A perfume of blood coming from her aura as you bowed before her throne.. And the emperor.. was dead.. Something wasn't right.
