Fate Miswritten: The Sword Shatters the Primordial Chaos

The vast Lanqiong star sea encircles all, while the laws are divided in two. The Goddess of Weaving Fate spins the stars' destinies, while the Netherworld rules over the cycle of souls.

At the pinnacle of the planes, the Eight Primordial Empires hold sway over the source ley lines. Beneath them stand a hundred ancient kingdoms, a thousand hereditary duchies, countless self-governing territories, and a hundred thousand warlords, all locked in a tangled web of conquest and alliance, with no end to the turmoil.

Huiyao, one of the Eight Primordials.

A rare misconnection in the threads of fate sent a divine soul from the Supreme Divine Realm into the imperial house of Huiyao. Bearing the powers of both the Netherworld's Heir and the Spirit-Battle Seat, it became Zhaohua, the legitimate eldest princess.

Born with an innate sword-source bone capable of cleaving through all arts, she was nevertheless bound by six layers of astral shackles imposed by the world's power of self-balance. They sealed her source and concealed her extraordinary nature.

On the outside, she is a gentle, quiet princess. In her heart, she harbors two great ambitions.

First, keep her edge sheathed and bide her time: stabilize Huiyao's court, root out the hidden currents among the great clans and imperial kin, and ascend to the throne as empress. Then, use Huiyao as her foundation to navigate among the nations, pacify countless territories, contend with the other Seven Primordials, and command the native political game across all of Lanqiong.

Once the dust has settled across Lanqiong, she will seek the truth behind the misconnected threads of fate and return to the work she left behind in the Divine Realm.

So what if the web of fate hangs overhead?

She will rise, sword in hand, and step by step, carve out a path of her own.
