[GRAND PALACE]
Izanami was furious.
She had never been this furious before, and everyone who was with her was watching the queen dowager turn onto someone else. Hell, even her dead council had stepped back from the fear that they would be dead at any time.

She was pissed, and everyone was feeling it.
No one had the courage to say shit to her, and it wasn't making things any easier because the pens who could have, Cronos and Mika, were already on their knees before her, writhing in pain. The kind of pain that they didn't know how to deal with.
