Synopsis

(An ensemble cast, slow burn, no heroine. A story of contending warlords.)

An age of chaos begins with an eternal calamity. Who will scheme to seize the throne?

Peace and paradise are extravagant dreams. Evil and bloodshed nurture the heart of a demon.

Among the wicked and the outlaws, heroes are born. Thieves and monsters yearn to return home.

A hundred schools strive to save the world, yet the world remains in turmoil. No ordinary man can choose whether to rise or fall with it.

The ambition to unite the realm swallows up the kingdoms. All under heaven is a chessboard, and everyone is a piece.

When one act ends, another begins. Each rules their age for centuries.

In the Five Regions and Nine Heavens, heroes vie for supremacy. Who will rule? No one knows!

Who sits high beyond the heavens, gazing down at the hardships of all living beings…

Volume One: “Whale Fall”

The six dynasties, a land of painted splendor and rival dragons. The red mansions overflow with song and dance, each in its own style.

The rise and fall of the ages is all decided by people. Each new emperor brings a new court.

So many lingering regrets drift away on the wind; so many deep hatreds lie hidden in mist and rain.

The pieces are arranged on every side. Who will answer the call? Which contender will get their wish?

The moon of today cannot wash away so many regrets.

The dreams of the past have all become yesterday, leaving only blank pages through the ages.

When a whale falls, rise and fall are beyond anyone's control.

All things are born. Who sings and dances, and who weeps?
