Whaaaaaat?! Who would have expected this (I sure wasn't)!!! So everything is in Na'xintii's hands now? We can only hope she'll know what to do to save herself and her mistress! And Nu'aano is a filthy bastard but he's not stupid, I'll give him this...Anyway how cool is that fountain??? Using the table's leg is pure genius!!

Now, to praise the stunning doll itself!! What a brilliant use of that background!! I didn't recognize it at first, but it's brilliant!! The way you've framed the fountains and the hanging vines, it's brilliant!! The shading is spot on! I swear, every time I think you've reached perfection, you surpass it! Nu'aano's fancy silver sash looks so expensive (And so ready to be torn to shreds in a wild rage) Na'xintii's gorgeous green gown is amazing as well! Tastefully accessorized, too!

You make EXCELLENT villains, Leaf!! Dang. There better be some cosmic karma coming for Nu'aano soon, or Imma jump into this story and deliver it myself!! Sleemo has a whupping coming! Little does he know, though, A'ine couldn't stand Ko'tuno as a husband and only stayed with him for political reasons. She knew full well that the people hated him. And Na'xintii, the poor dear! A spy caught between a rock and a hard place. She's clever, though, I'm sure she's got a plan up her sleeve!

Thank you Saralyn, but I can guarantee you Na'xintii's conscious is clear.

"Then wait for your tongue to be forked" Nu'aano grabbed Na'xintii by neck, "Wait to be stripped naked and throw into the farthest and poorest region of the emperor. You low-caste b*tch, do as I say, you don't have a choice!"

"I know you are Mi'isuka's confidant, but the spy master never hear a word from you, nothing but nonsense like who she spoke with and what she ate? The spy master knew, he just doesn't care. But if he really want to hold the accountability, that would be the end of your career." "So what, I never wanted a life like this!"

Na'xintii's a spy??? Oh my!! But poor girl, to be caught in Nu'aano's power! From a visual standpoint, this is an absolute delight, however! The detail is spectacular! You're so good with Pixie! I don't have the patience...

"Sweet Mi'isuka hasn't say anything yet, has she?Listen to me, little flower, if you do this, I will release you from your service." "Really? No, no you can't, how can you?" "Who summoned you here tonight? Let me guess, the Spy Master? and who had him do that?" For a moment Na'xintii's eyes lit up. "Can you? If I do what you say, can you promise their safety, Lady Mi'isuka and her parents'?" "Lowborn liar, this is an order not a bargain." Nu'aano grab the handmaid's chin forcing her to look up.

"Now little orchid, all I ask of you is to do your job. Your mistress is very talented, and I admire that talent. Bring me her poems, her private ones, the ones she never showed another soul." "Why?" "As her future husband,shouldn't I know a little more about my future wife?" "Lord Mi''kuo has turned down your proposal, you are not marrying Lady Mi'isuka, you just want to steal from her again!"

the other hand reached for her shoulder and torn down her collar. Na'xintii let out a muffled scream, her shoulder was exposed in the cold air. Under her arm, on her milky white skin was a tattoo of a black flower. "Little black Ku'uchi, little black orchid. Not a skilful one but a spy no less. What your dear lady Mi'isuka will think of you if she finds out WHAT you really are?" Na'xintii ground her teeth, tears welling out of her eyes.

Na'xintii's face turned white as paper, "Have you heard of this poem? " "Please, my lord..." "That one is quite popular among the muses, your dear mistress's work. How insolent was she to compare our late majesty Emperor Ko'tuno to Tae'kwa the tyrant of old? How disrespectful...what do you think the Empress Dowager will make of it?" "Please, my lord, how could I know? I am but a handmaid." "A handmaid, is that so?" Nu'aano grabbed the handmaid by wrist, pulling her close,
