Nobody is Above the Law

Itami gazed into a hand mirror and examined her face closely. It had been six years since she first defeated the Ashikaga shogunate and rose to power. During this time, she had brought her people into the age of industry. Despite that, she was still decades behind the Reich in terms of technological capabilities. 

However, over the past few months, she had been using the divine light of the Yata no Kagami mirror to foster exceptional talents within her scientific community as a means of closing the gap as quickly as possible.

With the political purges of the old conservative government nearing completion, a new generation of talented minds had taken over to fill her imperial bureaucracy. These men and women were loyal strictly to herself, and would no longer get in the way of the War Goddess, and her plans for a mighty Asian Empire.
