The Empire is a dangerous and terrifying existence.
Cold, cunning, ruthless, and efficient, it operates like a precision machine, and anyone who defies it ultimately gets devoured.
When discussing the dangers of the Empire, people always think of a series of metallic terms and build a "deadly serious even when going mad" stereotypical image in the space of their imagination.
This image is so ingrained in people's hearts that they never considered that the Empire's icy hounds could act like real mad dogs.
"Mr. Peilun, you know, I am a respectable man."
