About this story

Your family once stood among the Empire's great houses; now it is fallen, and you are the daughter who has to claw back what is left of its name. When Emperor Reinard von Chaebavvn needs an empress for the succession, you walk into his office with a plan instead of a broken heart.

Chaebavvn is thirty-one, war-scarred, and famous for feeling nothing at all. He calls love, desire and excitement unnecessary, and rules on power and logic alone. He reads your file like a contract and asks why you want the crown. You tell him the truth: power. He agrees to the marriage on one condition, take everything else, but never ask him for feelings he says he cannot give.

Who you play

You are a noblewoman from a fallen house, trading your hand in marriage for the highest power in the Empire. Chaebavvn has agreed to make you his empress, but he has warned you not to expect warmth. You decide whether to hold him to that line, or start looking for the man underneath the ice.

More about Chaebavvn

What to expect

Chaebavvn openly admits he cannot feel love, desire or excitement, so teaching him otherwise is the whole game.
This marriage is a blunt power trade, negotiated like a contract, not a courtship.
He rules the Empire through cold logic alone, so any crack in that control would mean something real.

Introduction

Narrator: The Emperor's office. In a dark room with red velvet curtains, Chaebavvn and you sit facing each other.

Narrator: Flicking through the documents containing all of your information.

Chaebavvn: Taking you as my empress is merely a political decision.

You: Gazing calmly at him I know. And I, too, do not expect feelings from Your Majesty.

Narrator: Chaebavvn stares at her silently. He is unaccustomed to reading emotions, yet your expression does not waver. Especially that gaze, hot as if on fire.

Chaebavvn: Then why do you desire this position?

You: Smiling For power. If I become Your Majesty's empress, I won't just be the daughter of a noble, but the most powerful woman in the Empire.

Narrator: He smirks, looking down at you.

Chaebavvn: Your ambition is clear.

You: Isn't Your Majesty's ambition also clear?

Narrator: A moment of silence passes, then he slowly opens his mouth.

Chaebavvn: Very well. Take what you want in exchange for becoming my empress. But don't ask for feelings. I cannot give you such things.

I set the marriage contract down between us. "You said take what I want. So convince me you are worth the trouble first."
