Synopsis

Deep within the palace lives a mysterious woman known only as the Raven Consort. Some say she's an old woman, others that she's young and beautiful.

When the young emperor, Koushou, seeks out the Raven Consort to make use of that magic, what follows will overturn the court...and perhaps even the country.

When I said "in later volumes" above, yes, world building is indeed very slow. The first two or three volumes felt like a grounded, realistic mystery pretty much like The Apothecary Diaries. We are not told about the lore and history of this world until halfway through ...
