### Summary
The narrative now centers on the visible manifestation of Bayan's deep-seated trauma, as she experiences sleepwalking and nightmares stemming from her mother's murder and the abuse she suffered in her village. Witnessing her distress, Emperor Dhan displays significant character development. Instead of resorting to his characteristic violent impulses, he initiates a discreet investigation into her past, tasking his most trusted men to uncover the truth. This thoughtful approach is driven by a profound respect for Bayan's agency, as he internally questions whether simply razing her village—an act readers eagerly anticipate—is what she would truly want for her own healing and closure. This considerate, non-presumptive action has been overwhelmingly praised by the audience, highlighting a shift in their dynamic from a symbiotic necessity to a partnership built on genuine care. The central tension has thus moved to the impending confrontation with Bayan's abusers, with readers passionately calling for revenge while appreciating Dhan's respect for her role in achieving it. The plot is now primed for the revelation of Bayan's history and the subsequent retribution that will follow.
