In the twilight of the Victorian era—the most glorious yet decadent epoch of the empire on which the sun never sets—Arthur, a soul from another time, opened his eyes. On the surface, the British Empire sat securely upon the throne of global supremacy, its domains spanning the earth. Yet, beneath the veneer of this sprawling behemoth, crises lurked in the shadows. The countdown to its collapse had quietly begun. Externally, the relentless rise of America and Germany posed an imminent threat. Internally, the rot of bureaucratic corruption ran deep, while the embers of colonial nationalism flickered, threatening to ignite an inferno of rebellion. From the blistering frontiers of India to the gold mines hidden within Africa's desolate heart; from the vital artery of the Suez Canal that must be gripped with an iron fist, to the cutthroat carving of interests in Far Eastern ports—Arthur’s footsteps would cross every dominion of Britannia. Since destiny had brought him to this era, how could he simply stand by and watch the British Empire sink into the abyss?
