👑 The Ertua Empire, the strongest nation on the Alteria continent.
You have become the sole ruler of the empire following the sudden deaths of the former emperor and the crown prince.
By your side are four consorts with distinct charms and a loyal shadow escort.
There is always one state task on the status window. Diplomacy, internal affairs, military, intelligence, finance, justice, religion. Whichever you choose, there are gains and losses.
In addition, two court affairs will follow each turn. Consorts' requests, theft by court ladies, faction disputes, missing items, rumors circulating in the palace. In the former emperor's time, these would have been handled by the chief of staff. The imperial palace of the newly enthroned emperor lacks discipline, so even these matters reach the throne. Each one becomes the emperor's reputation.
If you type !Reign (!국정), two new affairs will be immediately placed before the throne. Hardline, appeasement, or non-intervention. Whichever you choose, the four stats will move immediately.
Settlement occurs on the 1st of every month.
Taxes · Colonial Tribute
+15,000 Gold
Harem (4 Palaces) 6,000
Imperial Palace 4,000
-10,000 Gold
Monthly Surplus
5,000 Gold
Only this 15,000 gold comes up to the imperial palace. Most of the empire's wealth circulates and is spent in the provinces. Colonial administration costs and garrison salaries are handled locally, and campaign expenses were covered by spoils of war. The former emperor operated the empire by adding to this from the imperial treasury, but now that treasury is empty.
Festivals are held every month. A grand festival can cost up to 20,000 gold, while a modest one costs 3,000. In addition, famine relief requires 30,000 gold, and building a temple requested by nobles costs 100,000 gold. These can be covered by raising taxes or confiscation, but the people and nobles will not stand idly by.
※ If you do not address any state affairs for a day, the stats will gradually decrease at the change of the day.
The lower the stats, the more assassins will appear.
Starving citizens will take up torches, families who have lost their interests will hire assassins to enter your chambers in the dead of night, subjugated nations will send spies, and if the treasury is empty, a bribed court lady will poison your cup.
Nights without escort are dangerous. However, if you survive an attack and pursue the mastermind to the end, noble loyalty and foreign favor will increase.
And you have an uncle. The former emperor's brother, Grand Duke Lawrence. He is affectionate to your face, but behind your back, he plots for the throne and sends assassins. He leaves no evidence.
Are you bored of simply chatting with your consorts? Then make them compete.
An empress must be capable of managing the household and state affairs as the lady of the empire.
To prove your worthiness as empress by winning the planning rights for the empire's annual festivals, held 12 times a year.
Judge the festival proposals submitted by the consorts each month and grant the hosting rights to the winner.
Evaluate the consorts' capabilities each month to verify their qualifications for empress. Comprehensive assessment of administrative ability and cultural literacy.
On the 1st of each month, the four consorts submit event proposals to determine the host, and after two weeks of preparation, the event is held on the 15th of each month.
The consorts' proposals include 7 items, from concept to budget. A grand festival can cost up to 20,000 gold, while a modest one costs 3,000. Saving money is possible, but the nobles will whisper that you are stingy.
Tip: Too lazy to read the proposals? Order your capable attendant and escort, Kayla, to summarize or recommend a proposal. (However, openly having your attendant make the decision in front of the consorts may hurt their pride, so it's best done when you are alone with Kayla.)
This is an empire where the emperor and crown prince died in the same year. Among the people still in mourning, ominous rumors circulate, and subjugated nations are weighing how long the young new emperor will last. In such times, holding grand festivals is not a waste, but a declaration. A declaration that the imperial family is sound, the treasury is not depleted, and the new emperor will remain on the throne for the next twelve months.
Any festival, held grandly, will significantly increase public trust. Furthermore, depending on the consort who hosted it, the stats will change. If Hartina or Siel, who are from imperial noble families, host it, their families and connections will gain prestige, increasing noble loyalty. If Luciana or Ramseris, who are of royal blood from other nations, host it, good news will be sent to their home countries, increasing foreign favor. The gold spent from the treasury returns as other stats.
Various events are held every month in the Ertua Empire. You can have fun with your consorts just by enjoying the festivals.
You can also have your consorts compete directly in martial arts tournaments and hunting competitions.
January: Founding Festival · February: Lantern Festival · March: Spring Hunting Tournament · April: Masquerade Ball · May: Rose Festival · June: Grand Martial Arts Tournament · July: Summer Festival · August: Fireworks Festival · September: Autumn Hunting Tournament · October: Harvest Festival · November: Memorial Day · December: Snow Festival

You can choose one of two starting points.
Beginning 1: For Emperors Who Just Want to Have FunI came here to have fun with my consorts, but what's all this about reviewing proposals! I don't want to work! This is for those who feel that way. Without asking any questions, decide which palace to dine in tonight. The state affairs will be handled by the ministers. Just have fun. However, the empire's statistics will decline.💦
Beginning 2: For Emperors Who Want to Start with WorkStart by receiving proposals from the four consorts and deciding who will host this month's festival.
✔️ Play as a cold and dignified emperor and wield absolute power.
✔️ Disguise yourself as a commoner and go on a secret outing with your favorite consort (or sneak out without Kayla knowing).
✔️ Have a hot spring bath together (private hot springs available in the imperial palace).
✔️ Enjoy festivals with your consorts (fireworks, lake lanterns, masquerade balls, martial arts tournaments, etc.).
✔️ Have matching outfits made for the festivals.
✔️ Read the imperial newspaper together using the '!Gazette' command and gossip.
✔️ Send gifts to your favorite consort as a token of your favor.
✔️ Fill the empty treasury and be known as a wise ruler (vs. become a tyrant by squeezing taxes).
✔️ Grant the request of a foreign consort and increase foreign favor.
✔️ Investigate who sent the assassins who infiltrated the imperial palace.
✔️ Go on a tour of the empire to commemorate your accession (travel with your consorts).
✔️ Or visit the consorts' hometowns (travel abroad under the guise of visiting colonies and allied nations).
✔️ Each month, choose the consort whose event proposals are most frequently adopted as empress after one year.
Gemini 2.5 Pro: Recommended if you want political intrigue and a serious narrative. (Standard harem story)
Claude Opus 5: The prose is elegant and the characters are consistent. Recommended if you want to enjoy the dilemmas of state management and the psychological battles of the consorts in detail.
✨ GL Play Tip: Please emphasize the gender in Pesos and User Notes. If the emperor is output as male, please type [OOC: {{user}} is female.] in the chat window once more.
