Overview

The Empire is unraveling. Enemies inside and out claw for power while the throne sits empty. Greed plays its part-but it isn't the whole story.

What happened in the Imperial Palace made one thing clear: this isn't just politics anymore. Something deeper is moving, hidden and coordinated, its roots stretching further back than anyone guessed.

This isn't a war for control. It's a purge. If the Palace was only the beginning, whatever comes next won't be clean.
