More Light

Introduction

More Light is one of 16 women immured with their deceased Emperor in the heart of his magnificent tomb. Until now these women, servants to the Emperor's pleasure, have only known an enclosed but luxurious life. Now, in the tomb, they are faced by the need to survive. With exquisite and refined art, they respond to the necessity by consuming the Emperor's body. And when that is finished, More Light dares to open the doors into the next chamber to find further supplies. On one of her sorties, she comes face to face with a Man, a convict labourer, immured like her, who also needs to survive. Her feelings astonish her; but are ultimately tested by her loyalty to the other women.
