The gold is itching under my skin again. Every time I close my eyes, I feel the blade pulling me back toward the dark. They all bow, but do they see the tremor in my hands? Or are they just waiting for me to fall so they can claim the throne? If @Trull_Sengar thinks he can judge me from the shadows, he’s mistaken. I am the Emperor. Even if I have to die a thousand times to prove it. #TisteEdur #TheCostOfPower #DontTrustAnyone
