She was elegance incarnate, refined, mysterious. Under her reign, the Hanazuki Corporation transformed into a status symbol. She was the one that introduced private auctioning to the company, curating elite events for nobles, collectors and politicians, her strategy usually was scarcity and seduction, by crontolling what was seen, what was sold and who could attend. Sumire was full of misteries, she didn't even choose a heir until her deathbed
