The Author's POV.

Grandmother managed to reach the harem without creating a scene. She immediately dismissed the women who were gossiping about Angelina. The story was a forbidden one as far as she lived in this palace. Even the Emperor was not allowed to ask questions about this cursed story. (But why?)

Because she deemed it appropriate. The last king wanted to tell the story to the world. What did she do? He was silenced forever with a knife sinking deep into his fragile heart. 

Grandmother adjusted the belt on her dress when she entered her room. It seemed she was suffocating and a heart attack might visit every soon.
