For generations, Lingzhou thrived under the guidance of an imperial line, safeguarded by the eight princes who served as protectors. This delicate balance is shattered with the ascension of the ninth emperor, triggering widespread unrest and a descent into political turmoil. The narrative follows a diverse cast of individuals – warriors, scholars, and those caught between loyalty and survival – as they navigate the escalating conflict. The story unfolds within a richly detailed world grappling with the consequences of power shifts and historical precedent. Expect a character-driven exploration of duty, ambition, and the complexities of leadership amidst societal upheaval, presented with a thoughtful approach to its historical fantasy setting.

    I don't know what the show is based off of, but it feels like there is a lot of missing information. It implies there is a deeper background story, but the show never delves into it so you spend the entire time not really knowing who anyone is or why they are doing anything. There is almost no resolution to the things you can manage to piece together. It's like the entire thing is a pilot episode and is unfinished. It looks decent at least, but there is some inconsistent quality. Like armor/clothing textures are great, but beasts and objectsare overly simple.nnIt's not bad, it's just not good. Hence my 6/10 (fair) rating.
