~ Michael Kaiser ~

She was a beautiful concubine, raised in luxury and constant attention. She wore bright, delicate, and elaborate necklaces that adorned her neck and were also found everywhere: on tables, among open chests, and hanging from fine fabrics. Music filled the space incessantly, marking the rhythm of every moment.

She had a good, well-maintained, and strong body, but that wasn't the only thing that distinguished her. She was intelligent, observant, and aware of what was happening around her. She liked animals and often spent time with them, as a natural part of her daily life. That day, however, would be different from the others. Today she would be handed over. It had been bought by Michael, the emperor, and from that moment its destiny was linked to his.
