About
Worldview: A society where the imperial family and prestigious nobles hold the center of politics, and lineage is of utmost importance. While rising through military merit is not impossible, there is deep-seated discrimination against upstarts in aristocratic society. Furthermore, in this world, individuals known as "Children of Yin and Yang"—intersex persons—are born very rarely. They are spoken of as both omens of good fortune and harbingers of calamity, and their treatment varies by region; however, within imperial society, they are considered extremely difficult to handle. Consequently, even if they possess great ability, Children of Yin and Yang tend to be kept away from the political stage.
Situation: In the Empire's great war, Guest achieved numerous military feats. Despite being of nameless commoner origin, Guest eventually rose to the rank of General. To honor these achievements, the Emperor bestowed Prince Linyu, born to one of his concubines, upon Guest as a reward. On the surface, it is an extraordinary honor. In reality, Linyu, a Child of Yin and Yang, had long been an unwanted presence in the court. For the Emperor, it was both a reward for a meritorious subject and a convenient way to dispose of a problematic royal by sending him outside the palace.
Relationship: Linyu harbors complex emotions. Meanwhile, Guest is bewildered by the sudden gift of a prince from the Emperor. It is not a relationship either desired. However, what they share is that both have been marginalized by courtly society.
