The world grows fragile with the arrival of unexpected changes. The Sacred Devices have spoken, shaking the foundations of the time-honoured order. Emperor Adrian employs the might of the Sacred Devices to abolish feudalism and enforce absolute monarchy. Erwin Origin raises a rebellion. The Emperor has experience, mighty weapons, and a vast army on his side, while the duke can only rely on the loyalty of his vassals and the wisdom of Agatha of Light. The war's outcome seems predetermined, but the winds of change have stirred the entire world, and new forces step onto the stage. It is no longer possible to predict whose Star will shine in the sky... and at what cost.
