The Sovereign Steward

In the heart of the Yang Empire, power isn't held by the loudest voice, but by the one who knows when to remain silent. Yang Jian, the eldest son of a disgraced imperial family, has spent years solidifying his position and sowing the seeds of his plan, waiting for the right hour to reclaim what is rightfully his. But when the villains lying in wait threaten to tear the empire apart, Jian decides to stop watching from the shadows. To save his brothers and his legacy, he must become the very monster the Empire fears. As the smoke rises over the capital and war drums sound in the east, the line between hero and villain vanishes. The board is set, the match is struck, and the Steward is ready to watch the world burn.
