651 A New Power Rises in the East

Over the past few years, Berengar von Kufstein had risen from the humble position of baron's son to a powerful emperor. He had united the German people into a single Empire and had made it the most powerful nation in the western world. However, while this was occurring, another interesting figure had risen from a low status in the East. 

In the Ashikaga shogunate, a rebellion was occurring and its last battle was drawing near. Five years ago, a young girl appeared within a small samurai clan. There were no sons in her clan, leaving her to be the one to master the art of war.

Despite her talent in the sword, the girl was more concerned with administrative control. This small village turned into a fierce stronghold as new agricultural technology had appeared. With food in abundance and fewer men being required to work in the fields, her father had gathered an army the likes his neighbors had never seen.
