Lady Ah-Duo is best known as the Emperor's Pure Consort and childhood friend—basically the person who knows him better than anyone else at court. She's got serious influence over palace politics, partly because of their long history together and partly because she's just naturally charismatic. Fans of palace intrigue often note how her position as his closest confidante gives her real power, even if it's not always official on paper.
