The Discarded Son Enters the Game

A gifted young man with a mysterious past, destined to be nothing more than a discarded pawn.

If he had known he was only a pawn, why swear an oath with the songstress on a rainy night? Why lie drunk with his brothers in the sea of sand? Why let the woman he loved die? Why hold fast to honor and trust?

The world is vast and its people all have different hearts. Discarding pawns to gain an advantage is nothing new.

With the nation's enemies at the gates and love and hate intertwined, what will he choose? Can he turn around this losing game?

You can't have both the fish and the bear's paw.

The seas change and the world transforms. Look at how unpredictable everything under heaven can be.

The sun rises and the moon sets. Look at the affairs of this world: have they ever changed in the slightest?
