Shards

After years of war, House Zhai proved supreme among the major Houses to become the new Ruling House of Zinnu. With it's military might, law and order was established quickly and the land prospered. However peace was short lived.

Forced to bow down to House Zhai, many disgruntled Houses turned to unscrupulous methods to overthrow the Ruling House. Thus, the Underworld flourished and chaos reigned until House Zhai sealed a deal with the Dark Sect. The Dark Sect known for its organized crime ruled the Underworld with it's highly trained Shards.

When prominent members of the resisting Houses started to mysteriously disappear, the others soon fell in line and an uneasy superficial peace returned to Zinnu. The many Sects of the Underworld was also disciplined. Smaller Sects which opposed the Dark Sect was forced out of commission with members either killed or absorbed into the Dark Sect.

To strengthen his position, Lord Zhai plan to marry his youngest daughter off to a powerful Lord. However, ensuring her safety was proving difficult when she often dismisses her guards willfully and constantly puts herself in jeopardy without regard of others making her an easy target.

In desperation, Lord Zhai finally turns to the Dark Sect to keep his daughter safe until she is married. Will the Shards be able to keep her safe until her wedding day or will they fail to the many hidden plots and enemies still lurking in the shadows to overthrow the Ruling House?
