Camelot calendar, year 558, late autumn.
Within the Camelot Empire, a rumor of uncertain truth began to circulate.
The rumor claimed that Emperor Pluvia Camelot had welcomed Duke Kenji Anos into the former imperial harem's Spring Peace Palace. Furthermore, after Kenji moved into the Spring Peace Palace, Empress Dowager had reportedly received him personally, engaging in pleasant conversation.
Soon after, another rumor spread that Kenji and Her Majesty had entered and exited the imperial bedchamber together, and that he had stayed overnight in Her Majesty's quarters.
For the common people of Camelot, while the Emperor's affairs weren't suitable for open discussion, this didn't prevent them from talking privately. These rumors spread with remarkable speed.
