Hanlan

During the reign of Emperor Han Xuandi, the Northern Xiongnu launched an expedition to the Western Regions. They subjugated the Wujie, subdued the Dingling, conquered the Jiankun, repeatedly defeated the Wusun, and brought their military might to Dayuan, striking fear throughout the Western Regions. Terrified, the kingdoms all paid tribute to the Xiongnu rather than risk provoking the mighty Han. The fragile balance in the Western Regions began to crumble, along with its submission, and hearts turned toward change.

An eagle flute plays a mournful tune of willows as banners sweep out through the Han Pass.

Distant Anxi, mysterious Lijian, Kangju hiding behind a tiger's might, Wusun feigning obedience, Dayuan repeatedly threatened by invasion, and Loulan unwilling to accept its destruction… Amid this turbulent and treacherous age, a lanren unexpectedly stepped into the grand sweep of history.
