It was long days in the Emperor’s chamber, despite the priests’ frantic gestures and threats, despite the danger to the city above, before I could bring myself to speak the Emperor’s words again. Before I could not hurt as much at the lack of his presence here. Before I could remember that my duty was to the city, and not to the priests.

Then I sat in the Emperor’s chamber and spoke. I read aloud from the books on the table, translating as I wove the words. This had been my plan since I’d first pressed the Emperor to leave. He had a family to go back to, even if generations late. I had no one, so I would protect the city above. But I hadn’t understood how hard it would be. I was alone, where once I had not been alone.

After a time, it was no longer the Emperor’s chamber. It was my own.
