The Guest

Power in the Stone Kingdom essentially belonged to two families: Ju and Yang. For years, the Ju family had claimed the throne, with the Yang family as their subject; there had never been any deviation. But this road was soon nearing its end.

Upheaval was coming, and it would be at a scale that the nation had never seen before. Prime Minister Yang Dou felt deeply worried just thining about it - the influence he retained, along with the lives of his family depended on how he handled the events of the next few days. If it turned out well, the Yangs would continue to be in charge of the government in the Stone Kingdom. If not, perhaps even the Stone Kingdom itself would soon become a fading memory.

Yang Dou was quickly nearing 60. When he had taken over the position of Prime Minister from his father, he had experienced several big incidents during his tenure but none that made him feel as helpless as he did now.
