Being able to speak in front of the Empress, her recommendation is extremely rare.
But precisely because it is rare, she cannot make a single mistake.
She didn't have anything flashy; the Empress is experienced and knowledgeable. Ordinary gifts wouldn't catch her eye, so she must take a unique approach.
Selene bit her lower lip, her mind racing.
The Empress likes things that are novel, unique, and evocative. Ordinary jewelry and tributes have long since bored her.
She must present a gift that would be memorable.
What she needed was not something expensive, but something stunning.
The moment she saw the Empress, she felt that this necklace matched her perfectly.
What woman doesn't love beauty?
The females here are no exception.
The memory of that first meeting is still vivid.
The Empress stood atop a high platform, her golden hair cascading like a waterfall.
But at that moment, Selene's gaze was drawn to the emptiness around her neck.
