Step into the shadowed halls of Tudor England, where elegance was armor and silence could save your life. In this immersive historical journey, we follow the brutal reality of a lady-in-waiting — from the suffocating rituals of courtly dressing to the quiet terror of a Queen's changing favor. This is not the romanticized version of royal life. This is what it really meant to survive in the presence of power.
Expect gossip cloaked in silk, curtsies with consequences, and more than one stomach-turning banquet. If you enjoy history with a dark edge and rich, atmospheric storytelling, you're in the right place.
