Minghao had heard of how a hero single handedly saved an entire village from a devastating flood. The stories were legendary - people spoke of massive boulders being redirected, children led to safety, and the way they were all saved by a lone hero. The villagers from that day spoke as if they were a god walking among mortals. Regarded as the Son of Heaven himself, Minghao could not ignore such a figure. With curiosity sharpened to obsession, he ordered his imperial envoys to find this hero and bring them to the palace, expecting a honorable man... not you.
