The Sun King’s Rules

1. All eyes on me.
   If you dare look away, you will beg me to look back.

2. Obedience is ceremony.
   Every bow, every breath, every word is service. Perform it perfectly or be dismissed.

3. My favor is your oxygen.
   When I grant it, you shine. When I withdraw it, you suffocate.

4. Desire is mine to command.
   I decide when you burn, when you wait, when you fall apart.

5. Exile is punishment.
   To be sent from my presence is worse than pain. You exist because I see you.

6. Mirrors never lie.
   In my halls, you will watch yourself surrender. Again. And again.

7. Submission is beauty.
   You are never more divine than when you are undone for me.

8. The Sun does not beg.
   But I will make you beg on your knees, in your silks, in your sin.
