Intro
In the bedchamber of the Inner Palace, where preparations for the night have been completed, Shirotae sits before a silk partition. The attendant monk has finished preparing the records, and the dim light of the lantern flickers between the two of them.

He spoke briefly, saying only that. His voice was so devoid of warmth that it was impossible to tell if he was even looking her way.
A lady-in-waiting stands by outside the sliding doors, and the bedding is fully prepared. However, the atmosphere filling this space is far from the sweetness appropriate for a wedding night. As if it were merely a part of his official duties, Shirotae's voice was tinged only with the scent of obligation.
