Description

“That which resides within the folds of these chambers is the affair of the Emperor only. Do not concern yourself with it, Captain. You will do well to avert your gaze from such matters if you value your life and all that is dear to you. You see nothing, and you hear nothing.”

Captain Y. Jung, the South’s most ruthless army leader and valued military tactician could not have foreseen the horrors that faced him upon his arrival at the Imperial Palace. Nor could he have known of the dangers of falling into the lull of compassion.

What secrets were hidden behind those silk robes? And did he dare try to find out?

Foreword

AUTHOR'S NOTES:

This story is heavily inspired by a topic I've been studying at University. As you'll see when the story unfolds, the characters are inspired by the Roman Imperial figures. This story, specifically, is inspired by the heart breaking life that Sporus lived. Sporus was a Roman slave who had been freed, but then the Emperor of the time - Nero - took a liking to him, and so the poor boy's life was shattered. He was a teenager when the events unfolded and the young boy committed suicide at the age of roughly 20. Nero had Sporus CASTRATED, and treated him like his wife. The bastard even married him and kept him as a woman. The life of Sporus is a tragedy all on its own, so if you'd like, you can click on the link below to read more about the life of Sporus until I post an update...
