"Aghh~"
The sound pierced through the chamber, sending a bone-deep chill into the hearts of those who heard it. Outside, the snow fell in soft, peaceful silence, but within the Emperor's chamber, chaos reigned. Attendants rushed about in frantic confusion, their hands trembling as they tried to ease the torment of their master, whose body twisted in unnatural agony on his luxurious bed.

One of the servants cried out, her voice tight with panic. But Mathias couldn't speak. His lips parted in a silent gasp as his hands clawed at his chest, where an unknown agony gripped him. His eyes—once haughty and untouchable—were now wide with terror, reflecting the raw, burning pain that consumed him.
Huff. Huff. Huff.
