### Summary
The "Dark Marriage" between Emperor Garyun and Empress Lokheun has fractured under the weight of a deadly secret. Unaware that her immense qi is draining her life force and causing her body to slowly freeze, Lokheun misinterprets Garyun's desperate, restrictive attempts to save her as a controlling effort to suppress her warrior identity. In a defiant bid for independence, she has embarked on a solo investigation into recent child disappearances, a mission that is rapidly accelerating her demise. The latest chapter ends on a dramatic cliffhanger as Lokheun collapses, her symptoms worsening to the point that her blood now crystallizes. This crisis has ignited intense reader debate, with many frustrated by the couple's lack of communication and Garyun's decision to withhold the truth, while others fear Lokheun is sacrificing her powerful "girlboss" persona. As she lies vulnerable, Lokheun is directly in the path of the overarching conspiracy led by Dr. Gwak, caught between the internal threat of her own power and the external enemies closing in, leaving her life hanging in the balance.
