Second City Boxed Set
"Welcome to the shining star of the Colonies¸ the Second City¸ honorable samurai! May your stay here be as interesting and profitable as you desire! I strongly recommend that you do not venture outside the city until you have had an opportunity to receive some rudimentary training with the Second City Guardsmen¸ however."
-Shinjo Hariken¸ Vassal of the Miya
Twenty-five years ago¸ Rokugan fought a terrible battle against an invading gaijin army known as the Destroyers. Although the noble samurai of the Emerald Empire were victorious¸ the conflict was devastating beyond all others¸ and the lands of the Great Clans were left in ruins by the fighting. To spare her people the threat of further war¸ war which would surely lead to the death of an Empire¸ the Divine Empress sued for peace with the forces of darkness¸ and then dispatched her vassals to claim the empty lands left behind in the wake of the Destroyers.
A generation later¸ the untimely death of a prominent magistrate in Rokugan suddenly elevates a group of simple samurai to a position of authority¸ but the magistrate's unfinished business sends them to the Second City to see it to completion. There¸ influential samurai from the Empire have almost limitless potential¸ but the distractions from duty are numerous.
In the Second City¸ will honor prove stronger than steel?
