A male consort was not allowed to move around without permission from his lady. There were a lot of restrictions placed on men, making their conditions in life second to the women that it made sense that groups like Damask Insurgencies existed.
Life was unfair, but it couldn't be helped sometimes. Even for a consort that a woman depended on for pleasure, there were too many limitations imposed upon them. It was even more difficult because he was in the Mashiro Temple, a place run primarily by Priestesses.
However, Li Yang's case was different.
"Priestesses are not allowed to leave without any permission."
"That's fine."
"Wait, you'll be the one leaving?!" Rei stared at him, bothered. "You're going to die if you ever thought of going there all by yourself."
His lips twitched slightly. "I did not think that you would care."
