What do you behold, O Goddess of Life and Death? What truths lie beneath your gaze?
In a world consumed by war and chains, one is either the hand that strikes or the flesh that bleeds beneath it. Eleven kingdoms are locked in endless conflict, driven by clashing ideologies, cultures, inheritance, land, and the thirst for control.
Within the Xia Empire marches a certain female commander. She leads only a hundred soldiers, yet enters campaigns where ambitious generals chase their dreams at the cost of hundreds of thousands of lives. She was once a bandit, a murderer of innocents. Yet now, she too dares to dream, with a dazzling fire in her eyes.
As wars rage on, as corruption spreads and politics decay from within, while nations fight for glory and survival, it is the nameless and faceless humans who are left to confront the true cost of it all.
And yet, even in death, man marches on.
