The emperor's court magician is power, respect, prosperity, and also flattery, deception and responsibility! Yes, and most importantly - a game with death! After all, my predecessor was killed, and this is far from the last victim. Someone purposefully gets close to the emperor, and on his way I am Amilesta diol Shaon, Duchess of Taor. Scary? I'm not! I'm not used to backing down. I have a goal and I'm going for it. I am not afraid of an unknown enemy, I am afraid of only one thing - so that the emperor does not make a mistake. However, it was not in vain that I pulled out Eiza's ticket, which means that I will succeed!
