Chapter 167 – The Crimson Empress [2]
Sophie Castria, The First Empress. The Crimson Empress.
History was carved that day.
Because for the first time since the creation of the human domain… a woman had seized power.
And no, this wasn't just a ceremonial title or a puppet position held under the shadow of some man. No. This was true power. Raw, earned, deserved.
It might not seem like much to an outsider's point of view.
But inside the human domain, inside the mind of all the people who lived there…
It was fucking massive.
Because this place had been soaked—no, drowned—in centuries of patriarchal rot because of Rome and his predecessors. Where women weren't rulers but tools. Tools to gain influence. Marriage tokens. Breeding vessels. Silent ornaments and even flashy whores.
That was the brutal truth.
Women were never meant to own power.
They were taught to marry into it. To fuck their way into it. To be used for it.
