Dragon's Ascent

an imperial chinese au  

Eleven years ago, the crown prince of the Xi Empire was exiled for treason against the Dragon Throne.

For whatever reason, Emperor Xingzong has now seen fit to pardon his son and recall them back to the capitol. Second Prince Hua, now a jianghu legend under the alias "Divine Blossom," only returns at the behest of their sister.

Thrust back into a tiger's den of shaky alliances and ambition-fueled treachery, Second Prince Hua has to avoid a second exile while figuring out who framed them for treason. Unfortunately, it seems like things have only gotten worse since they've been gone.

They could just settle for what they've got... but where's the fun in that?
