A story of a rising Dragon-blooded hero descended from one of the great failures of history. A story of a decaying kingdom in the South of Creation. A story of how the past haunts the present. A story of plots tangling together like cobwebs. A story of a historian yelling at other historians.
![Akuma Quest [Cyberpunk AU Exalted]](/data/threadmark-index-icons/m/60/60980.jpg?1642828589){kind=icon}
In a city of advanced technology and ruthless cruelty inspired by the Exalted tabletop role-playing game, a young man abandons his humanity in a quest to save his sister.
Hear, O disciples, for I bear witness to the dawn of destruction awaiting the Three Realms. When the drum of Samsara resounds throughout the earth, the Palace of the East, encompassed in radiant light, shall slumber in the Womb. All who live shall be no more; their red souls of transgression shall mark the rise of demons. And lo, those who behold this great mystery shall stand before the Lotus of Souls and speak the Word of Reason; such is the Law of Creation.
...So it is written.

The Scarlet Empress is a woman like no other. She is the Mother of Dragons, the Saviour of Creation, the Jade Boot on the Throat of the World. Her hand has shaped the course of history, her words have heralded the doom of nations, her loins have given life to an entire Dynasty of imperial demigods.
She is also your mother. No pressure.
Lit by the relentless flame of the Elemental Pole of Fire, the South of Creation has been intimately and inexorably altered to match the patterns found within that conflagration: its land marked by scorching heat and its people by burning passion. More so than any other, the South is a study of contrasts: unfathomable wealth and unimaginable poverty, unfettered ambition and unending hopelessness. These and thousands more, both great and small, await the curious traveler.
