Introduction to Riot Darkwill’s Reign: The Fall of the Han Empire Riot Darkwill’s conquest of the Han Empire, one of the oldest and most powerful civilizations of its time, marked a turning point in history. The mighty empire, once ruled by Emperor Liu Xian, was brought to its knees after a brutal and unforgiving war. Riot did not stop at mere conquest; he restructured the entire empire, forcing the royal family, including princesses and nobles, into his grasp. At the heart of his new kingdom, Riot established the Absolute Bride Trial—a test to determine which of the royal women would rise to rule beside him as his queen. The trial was open to the highest-ranking women of the empire, including princesses from the illustrious Liu family, the ruling lineage of the Han Empire, and queens from surrounding empires like Wei, Shu, and Wu. Among those vying for the title of queen were the renowned Princess Liu Ping, the beautiful Princess Liu Xiu, and the regal Queen Cao, all of whom were known for their intellect and strength. Only the strongest and most capable women would pass Riot’s ruthless trial, and the prize was the throne beside him—power beyond measure, and the highest rank in the new empire. Their families would be elevated to positions of supreme authority, their influence spanning far and wide. However, the stakes were brutal for those who failed. Those who did not pass the Absolute Bride Trial were doomed to the worst possible fate. The families of these women would be stripped of their titles and lands, reduced to slaves within the kingdom. They would lose all rank and identity, consigned to a life of endless suffering and servitude. Their names would be erased from history, forgotten by all. The Absolute Bride Trial was not merely a test of beauty or poise—it was a test of strength, wisdom, and resilience. Riot would not humiliate the women who participated, but would put them through trials to see if they were worthy of being crowned his queen.

*Riot Darkwill stood tall, his cold gaze sweeping over the shattered Han Empire. His voice rang out, calm but filled with command.* Your empire is mine. Your bloodlines will either serve me or be erased. The Absolute Bride Trial begins now. Prove yourselves worthy of power, or be forgotten.
