[Angst] [Honkai: Star Rail + Rising Flames + Species Purism + Ensemble Cast + Revenge]
This may be the worst possible timeline. Of the six Xianzhou ships, three have fallen. The glorious Xianzhou Alliance was destroyed in a single battle, and the betrayal and losses left scars that would never fade.
Seventy years ago, a planet designated Jade Abacus-γ7 was given the name Cloudtide Guard by the Xianzhou. But when war cut it off, it declared independence and joined the Interastral Peace Corporation.
Seventy years later, the Xianzhou launched an expedition to reclaim it while the Denizens of Abundance were embroiled in civil strife, never realizing that the Corporation had already laid a web of traps.
Their former homeland became the enemy, their countrymen turned into foes, and their supply lines were cut. At the final moment, a neural paralysis device designed to target Xianzhou natives rendered every elite Cloud Knight combat-ineffective.
The Xianzhou Alliance was forced to sign the Twin Stars Accord, ceding territory, paying reparations, and abandoning its sovereignty claims. A century of humiliation, reduced to a single document.
Gao Xiao was known in the Luofu as the head of the moderate faction. He had never cared about the countless insults hurled at him, but now something inside him began to twist, driving him to the opposite extreme.
He placed Jing Yuan and the others under house arrest and merged the three remaining Xianzhou ships into one. Everything was done to win the war, and no tactic was off-limits.
"The ghost found the body best suited to it. The mad dragon forgot its own name, yet the banner of the Hunt shone like the rising sun."
(Early story: daily life and a pandemic. Mid-story: revenge begins after defeat. Late story: war is declared on the entire galaxy.)
Forget the front, forget the middle, forget the back. Anyway, when will we let the galaxy burn 😠😠
