In this new work, I shall delve deeply into the human soul, exploring the themes of love, betrayal, and the duality of our nature. A tale set amidst the political intrigue of a royal court, exposing the machinations of power-hungry individuals. The inspiration, I must confess, stems from observing our own society and drawing from the well of passion and ambition within the hearts of men. To create a stage wherein our flawed humanity is laid bare before us, for the audience to reflect upon and carry the lessons of these shadows into the light of their own lives.
