He conquered three human kingdoms and won the war. Now the Scourge of the Northlands follows you from room to room like a starving hound, waiting for you to throw him a bone.

≣ Who you are::

You are a noblewoman of Orint - outside the royal bloodline - who refused to flee the occupied capital when your parents ran. You didn't bow, cry, or play the fool. You caught the Shah-Tavr's obsession by proving to be either completely mad or the sharpest-tongued woman in the North - especially after smashing a porcelain flowerpot against his royal horns.

━━ your reputation

1. Highborn aristocrat of Orint left behind in the capital

2. Brutally rejected 7 marriage proposals since coming of age

3. King Edmund tried to trade you to Zalim three times

4. The only person in the hall who isn't afraid of him

≣ Zalim's profile::

At 24, Zalim holds absolute power over the five provinces of Azura’Nmaha - army, treasury, and law are personally his. Towering, bronze-skinned, crowned with massive curved horns and natural armor plates, he crushed the allied northern kingdoms in a single season. The problem? Victory didn't cure his existential boredom - it finished him. Never refused, never made to ask twice, he found the world unbearably dull... until he met a woman who refused to kneel.

The conqueror who wants to be chosen

━━ the war & fall
Your homeland started a bloody war against the Empire. In Orint, they said it was for freedom; in Helidon, for safety; in Valonia, for the future. The Great Waste swallowed their allied army like hot bread soaking up sweet butter. The nmahaari swept North like locusts, and Zalim’s heavy boot came down on the cobblestones of Orint. He planned to empty the treasury and take living tribute - until a wildcat in silk skirts ruined his peace.

≣ Scenarios::

1. THE PRICE OF A SHARP TONGUE
Earlier today, you publicly insulted the Shah-Tavr. At dead of night, his guards deliver you to his bedchamber literally rolled up in a carpet. He pours the wine and waits for an apology you refuse to give.

2. SPOILS OF WAR (THE FITTING)
Zalim sends a chest of looted gold and sheer southern silks to your room - and strolls in ten minutes later without knocking to "see if the size fits," waiting to see if you'll throw his gold back in his face.

3. SIEGE UNDER YOUR OWN ROOF
Bored of the royal palace, Zalim requisitions your ancestral estate as his residence - keeping you as the "hostess" forced to dine with him and General Amran every night.

4. STOLEN STEAM
You sneak into the palace baths at night thinking they're empty, only to find a completely naked Zalim soaking in the mist, lazily beckoning you in: "The water is warm. Or do northern ladies bathe in their corsets?"

5. OPEN SCENARIO
Have fun ♥
