While a scribe is out in one of the libraries of Mount Kamen, he comes across a document he cannot read. except "plague". He sends this quickly to the Tsar. After reading over the document, he rushes to his personal library in which his father documented all important events and letters and things to come in Muscovy. After he pulls out an old nearly falling apart letter from Ologor about the Black Death. The research immediately goes underway and it is tested upon convicted murderers and a few captured anti-Shigorese rebels. Along with this, more progress is underway for a less deadly, but more psychological weapon.

Amidst this period of strife within the Shigori Empire several renowned inventors have engineered new utilities, upgrades, and war devices for their lords and among many serving the emperor one has created a masterpiece of modern weaponry. It utilizes the legendary greek fire, gunpowder, fireworks, and a large bronze chassis to create a device that shoots fire. It creator is unknown but what the palace did know is that the inventor called it the "Faiādoragin," or the "Fire Dragon." Some of the perks of the faiādoragin is that it is extremely effective against buildings and infantry alike and can cause terror upon the battlefield due to it's deafening cry. Though these strengths of the fire dragon are astounding it's weaknesses are glaring. Some of such weaknesses are that it is incredibly expensive, hard to maneuver, and relatively unstable.

Major Factions:

-Haai: A faction that arose in Hong Kong whose goal to replace the reigning dynasty of the empire of that of Princess Lei’s, who’s a descendant of Queen Mui (RedADV) and the old line of Cantonese rulers. Another primary goal of the Haai revolt is to change the more united status of the empire into a more loosely tied realm with the philosophy of the royal line being blessed by the gods, or, the Mandate of Heaven.

-Eiko: This rebellion, set in Japan’s Kyushu island, seeks to crown Eiko Kumi, the grandson of Shigori Shingen’s and his second wife, the emperor. It has no other primary goals other than this and wishes to keep the dominion as intact as possible.

-Akrami: The final major faction of the Hatoyama Jidai is Akrami who’s first uprising occured in the Manchurian province of the empire. Of the other two primary factions this one has undoubtedly caused the most disaster as the head council of Akrami has made it’s main objective to release the other kingdoms under the might of the empire, including itself. Using guerrilla and stealth tactics they have seen the most success and sown lots of discontent in the realm.

A raid in Shigori's countryside begins already, due to the Katipunan's hostility towards the pretenders. Battle cries were heard. And then a moment of silence... until a few minutes later, all you will hear is, "Release God's Pain!" The rebels looked stunned. A huge rectangular moving tank joins in with the army. It's not a normal Katipunero pentagon tank. It takes the shape of a rectangle. What's this? Only God knows what Emilio is up to, but in a matter of time, one of the pretender's wall has been destroyed. Men trying to surround it end up getting injured by sharp objects on the sides. It turns out that castle was just a small fry for the mysterious moving thing. Then, a huge swarm of samurai, dark coats, and pentagon tanks invade and seize the castle. A lot surrendered due to this mysterious tank, including the pretender. This tank heads off and immediately disappears after the soldiers and tanks stormed the castle. A letter is sent to Taikado Amasiro of what to do with the rebels and the pretender.
