The Fall
"The cradle of civilization!" Mr. Hyde said and Jin Wang would have to agree to a great degree.

For even Jin Wang had never seen a place so utterly magnificent in both scale and design.
"The sun never seemed to set on Solum," Mr. Hyde continued with some pride upon seeing Jin Wang's shocked reaction, "Ten thousand different races lived here in peace for countless millenniums, all under the watchful eye of the one true ruler of the galaxy, the Immortal Emperor."
"His armies were boundless and his legions eternal, stretching across the stars in every direction, as far as their ships could take them. From the great Lords of Solum to the Old Houses of the Lost Eras, all served the Imperium no matter how far they were from its ruler."
