North Water, South Wind

A few names in the annals of history, countless barren mounds on Beiman Hill.

The predecessors sow, and those who come after reap. What is there to say of dragons fighting tigers?

An empire stretching ten thousand miles collapsed overnight, and the age of chaos had finally begun. As the court and the imperial family fought for power, a prince who had once held none found himself drawn into the struggle for the throne. He forged ties with the martial world, fought enemy states, ruled as regent, and unified the vast realm. Yet the Regent of a realm stretching ten thousand miles was ultimately no more than a mound of yellow earth. The empire fell, and chaos began anew.
