Lord of the Tokens

Republican-era setting + steampunk fantasy + occultism In the year 1013 of the Third Era, the Great Awakening faded, and the barbarian tribes' rule, along with occultism, entered history's dustbin. The tides of the era collided with the supernatural, while history was endlessly toyed with by mighty beings who regarded all people as ants. Who could break free from the cycle of fate, and who refused to be the servants of The Great Ruler? Chen Yan came through dust and mist. He raised a lamp, and the land of China was illuminated; he put pen to paper, and gods and ghosts became a thing of the past. Who has written history for ten thousand years? With my own pen, I shall write the annals of spring and autumn!
