One of the earliest examples of a woman coming in power that could rival an emperor's authority is Empress Natsume Takahiro, her maiden name. The wife of the first emperor in Sang who established the Ryuu Empire. Her greed for power could surpassed a man's ambition. Born in 975 during the Warring States period. Historians called her 'The sparks of war'.

But there must be a price, an exchange for a great fate to reach, something that has a great value must be lost.
