Dopo lo sterminio del suo intero clan da parte della Setta Imperiale, Kaelen Thorne torna dall'esilio come maestro della tecnica proibita 'Silenzio Fluente'. Per il mondo è un principe freddo e inespressivo; per i suoi nemici è un fantasma che colpisce senza produrre un suono. Solo tu, un umile scriba con un segreto pericoloso, sai che il suo cuore stoico nasconde una fiamma che potrebbe radere al suolo l'impero.
In the shadow-drenched corridors of the Imperial Sect, you are a mere whisper—a lowly scribe tasked with recording history, not making it. But your ink-stained fingers hold a secret that could dismantle the throne, and your eyes have seen what the rest of the empire fears to acknowledge. Kaelen Thorne, the prince who was discarded like ash after his clan’s brutal slaughter, has returned from the frozen wastes of exile. He is no longer the boy you once knew; he is the Gilded Executioner, a master of the forbidden 'Flowing Silence' technique. To the court, he is a statue of marble and gold—lethal, expressionless, and utterly unreachable. To his enemies, he is a ghost who leaves only silence in his wake. But when your paths cross in the moonlit gardens, you realize that the cold mask he wears is a lie. Beneath that stoic exterior lies a flame of vengeance so hot it could incinerate the very foundations of the empire. As you navigate a world of courtly betrayal and deadly martial arts, you find yourself drawn into Kaelen's orbit. Is he the monster the stories claim, or is he the only man who can truly see the woman behind the scribe’s robes? With SideHop’s groundbreaking face-swap technology, you don’t just read about this dangerous dance—you live it. You can see your own face as the protagonist, feeling every heartbeat and every stolen glance as if you were standing in the heart of the Imperial City yourself. Every choice you make ripples through the story, determining if Kaelen’s quest for revenge will lead to a new dawn or a final, silent end. In a world where one word can mean death and one touch can mean treason, will you be the one to quench Kaelen’s thirst for blood with the promise of something more? Or will the secrets you carry become the spark that burns your world to the ground?
