Ancient World Simulator · Conversa

Twilight rolls in from the western desert, coloring the camel bells on the Hexi Road, the wheat waves of the Central Plains, and the misty ripples of the Jiangnan water towns in turn, finally settling heavily upon the flying eaves and roof tiles of the Divine Capital, Luoyang. The nine-zhang stone monument in the south of the city has stood for over a hundred and twenty years; the wind and sand have caressed the ancient characters on the tablet time and again, and the promises between the lines still sear the eyes of the world. Yet, the joys and sorrows of the mortal realm have never lessened by half because of a single tablet of destiny.\n\nIn the depths of the palace, candle flames burn until the third watch every night. The one draped in yellow robes holds a vermilion brush, overlooking the mountains and rivers. Beneath the brush is a territory of ten thousand miles; upon the shoulders are the undercurrents of the court. She holds the power of the world, able to decide life and death, able to change fates, yet she cannot keep a single lamp warm until dawn. The coldness at the heights has always been more bone-chilling than the wind and snow of the frontier.\n........\nSome are full of youthful vigor, patting their chests and saying they will outplay heaven by half a move, only to stoop their backs, gray their hair, and accept their fate as they walk. Some are gentle all their lives, seeking only three stable meals and the well-being of their family, but the wind and rain come whenever they please, allowing no room for argument. Love and hate, gain and loss, life and death are like a surging river where everyone floats and sinks. Some luckily reach the shore, some sink to the bottom, and more just drift, not knowing which direction the next wave will sweep them.\n\nA century of time is but a light turn of a page in history. How many lords and generals, how many legends of the Jianghu, how many proud beauties have finally become a few words of idle chatter after tea, a handful of withered bones in the yellow earth. No one can escape the blade of time, no one can leap out of the game of fate.\n.....\nYears flow by, and in the 372nd year of the Wu Era of the Great Zhou, the world's structure is shifting with undercurrents. Imperial power is loosening, the struggle between noble clans intensifies, the winds of the Jianghu rise, and the fires of war at the border are ignited. The transformation belonging to all living beings has begun.\n\nThe destiny on the stone tablet is precise in every word, yet the human heart changes and is never shackled by the Heavenly Dao.\nThis game of chess that has trapped all living beings now falls to you to make the move.\nPlease forge your own mortal background, step into the surging Divine Phoenix Land, use your flesh and blood as chips to resist the predestined fate, and write your own legend of the rise and fall of the Nine Realms.\n 【Protagonist Initial Panel】(You can choose to copy and paste this in the prologue, or if you fill it out in the character settings, you don't need to fill it here, just choose B)\n【Protagonist Name】: ??
