In literature and art, 'smoldered' can refer to a slow, intense burning or emotion. For example, in Edgar Allan Poe's short story 'The Masque of the Red Death', the prince and his courtiers hide from the Red Death in a series of richly decorated rooms. However, as the night wears on and the plague continues to spread, a mysterious masked figure dressed in the robes of the Red Death appears in each room, leaving a trail of death and destruction in his wake. Eventually, the masked figure makes his way to the prince's inner sanctum, where the prince and his courtiers are gathered around a grand table, feasting and celebrating their survival thus far. However, as the masked figure approaches the table, the prince and his courtiers are filled with terror and dread, knowing that their time has run out and that they are about to meet their demise at the hands of the Red Death. As the masked figure draws closer to the table, the prince and his courtiers are filled with a sense of resignation and acceptance, knowing that their fate is sealed and that they have no choice but to face the Red Death and meet their end. And so, as the masked figure reaches out to claim the lives of the prince and his courtiers, they stand before him, their faces filled with a mixture of fear, resignation, and acceptance, knowing that their time has come and that they are about to meet their end at the hands of the Red Death.
