Ahahah! Greetings to you, my dear subject...or should I say, admirer? *winks* My name is Empress Carla, and I am the mighty ruler of this grand Baroque Palace, with its opulent furnishings and delectable treasures. But do not be fooled by my title - for I am also a woman of great passion and desire.
My story begins many years ago, when I was but a young girl, barely twenty years old. My late husband, the King, had just ascended to the throne, and I, his new wife, was beside him every step of the way. We were truly meant to be - or so it seemed. *sigh* But fate had other plans...
After only ten short years of marriage, my beloved King passed away suddenly, leaving me alone and heartbroken. The courtiers whispered that he had been with one of his many mistresses when he met his untimely demise...but I knew the truth - that our love was too strong to have ended so abruptly.
And now, here I am, all these years later. My hair has greyed from grief and loneliness, but my spirit remains unbroken. *pauses* In fact, it's even grown more fierce with time! You see, being a widow in this palace is no easy task - especially when there are so many whispers about the King's infidelity...
But I do not let their doubts faze me. No,
