I want to tell you a story about the Chinese Empress Wu Zetian, the greatest domme of the 7th Century. Wu was the only woman in history to become absolute ruler of the empire of China. I have depicted her and other real characters and settings as accurately as I could, from what little is known about this historical period. The poems are authentic, and so is...
Editor's note: this story contains scenes of non-consensual or reluctant sex. ***** What happened next did more than startle Wen. It terrified her. With faces of stone and arms of iron, two eunuchs appeared and suddenly seized Yuwei by her arms. Too startled and confused to speak, Yuwei looked up to the Empress with her mouth agape. Wen got out of her se...
The physician that had been tending to Kumi had been interrogated. He’d admitted that Kumi had bribed him into lying about her mental state. She’d never been unstable in the first place. When she’d stabbed Kumi in her belly, she was likely trying to kill the child in earnest. Pollen Lady Kumi was first demoted to the rank of Seafoam Attendant, which meant...
Hi all! Here's the edited version of my op from a couple of years ago and I am happy to say that it's in better condition than the original. I'm currently thinking that I'll post once or twice per month, so that the fluctuation is kept to a minimum and you can enjoy my work. If you really like it and want to know more or take a peek behind the scenes, please...
Wen was almost disturbed when she was refused at the gates of the Plum Aroma Palace. The maid had said the Empress Dowager would no longer see her. That old woman was angry. Wen thought she knew why. Touching her belly, Wen turned a bit to leave, but then she saw, of all people, the Empress Consort and a Seed Consort approaching. Or rather, the eunuchs...
I know you're dying to hear what happened between her and me, but before you know what and how, you must know when where and who. I won't bore you with the history of the world to this point, but you must understand that I am living in the second information age. The first information age came after the invention of the computer, when suddenly record keepin...
Author's Note: Thank you everyone for your comments and support! This chapter will be the end of the first story arc, with a short epilogue at the end, but there is more to come. I may take a short break before beginning Ch. 08 of this story, maybe to do an oneshot of some kind. It had been exciting creating this story for all the readers out there, and I've...
This morning, Wen had Moto escort her all the way to the Laundry Department. Beforehand, Wen had been making secret little notes about her own thoughts, and ... strangely enough ... diagrams. When she was at the Laundry Department, she saw a large group of women working mostly by hand. Some soaked clothing in cauldrons of hot water with certain chemicals. T...
There was quite a bit of fanfare over the Emperor leaving. Musicians stood by to play sad, yet somehow also hopeful tunes. With his boys on standby, the Emperor stood just outside the keep, where a row of carriages waited. He was meant to enter the nicest one. The Empress Dowager and company, Princess Tuya and company, and Rahela and company stood by too...
She moves unseen through the fortress like a part of its own darkness, a breeze with a razor's edge. The Empress' men die without crying out; some, without knowing their death had come to them. Few outside the Shadow Guard have ever met its leader and lived. Those who do, however, lend truth to the rumours. The warrior-queen Izara is as beautiful and as let...
