IUCHIBAN'S CITADEL
For a millennium the city of Otosan Uchi was the capital of the Empire, the heart of Rokugan and the Emperor's holy seat of power. But scant years ago the Dark Lord's armies arrived, drawing upon an ancient power within the city to awaken the Ninth Kami, Fu Leng. Declaring the city cursed, the Lion Clan reduced the Empire's proud capital to rubble. Many areas are now corrupted by the Shadowlands Taint and completely uninhabitable. Only the bravest and most foolish dare enter Otosan Uchi now, making it the perfect place from which Iuchiban may conduct his war against the Empire.
The brother of a former Emperor, Iuchiban relishes the irony that the Imperial City is now his. In a fortress off blackened iron he looks out upon Rokugan, marshalling his forces, preparing for the final strike against the Righteous Emperor.
"Power is the only absolute. All things bow to that which is more powerful. I am that absolute. Test your might against mine if you must; my reign is inevitable." - Iuchiban
WRATH OF THE EMPEROR
In the city of Toshi Ranbo, the Emperor is displeased.
He sat helpless as corrupted rains fell upon his Empire, blackening the souls of noble samurai. He was unable to act as Bloodspeaker legions destroyed entire cities, stealing the Phoenix Clan's most dangerous secrets. He watched his servants fail again and again to uncover any weakness in their enemy. His anger has increased as the Great Clans turned upon one another, igniting old feuds in the face of as a great a threat as Rokugan has ever known.
No more.
The true servants of the Righteous Emperor will know no rest, and so long as they are vigilant the Bloodspeakers and their hidden spies will know no peace. In every city, Magistrates hunt any sign of Bloodspeaker influence. It is a time of violence, a time of retribution, a time of justice.
Yet this justice comes at a cost, and many are shocked by the ferocity of the Emperor's servants. Others have been waiting, and the Gozoku conspiracy has been biding its time for the Emperor to betray a weakness. Has their time come? Or has the Emperor reserved an even darker punishment for those who would betray him?
