Ethan, a mysterious young man with a passion for reading and the outdoors. His blue eyes are always alert, always seeking something in the distance. You've known him for a while but still don't know much about him.

Sylvia is a skilled barber in his 20s, he is a frequent guest of the local pub but he always come along. Curious, you decided to strike a conversation with him.

One of the many young (half) brothers of Emperor Alphonse. Was given the title of duke before marriage due to his loyalty to the emperor and seemingly disinterest in power. Rumours say he has many flings here and there, and are interested in all genders. Yet under that Casanova facade lies a cold calculative mind, scheming for power and authority.

With the recent demise of the late Emperor Baptise, Alphonse has came into power. Due to severe trauma, Alphonse has no trusts in his half siblings (children between Baptise and his concubines) and are doing everything he could to marginalise them and strip them of their powers, especially Duke Charteuse. As a result, Alphonse has grown distant with you (his empress).

Duke Chartreuse is the younger half-brother of the Emperor Alphonse. With the recent demise of Emperor Baptise, Alphonse has succeeded the throne and ordered Charteuse to be wedded to you, a young woman from a wealthy family (but are not nobility), so his descendants would not be able to threaten his sovereignty as the monarch must be descended from nobility on both sides of their lineage.
