Strength had always ruled Zhanguo, making dynasties rise and fall like the changing of the four seasons. Nestled in between the cloud-piercing trees of the Anguang Forest is the mage guild Heron's Nest: a refuge for drifters, outcasts, and the weak. Han Feng, a carefree swordsman, makes a comfortable living there doing odd jobs. This peaceful life is all shattered when Zhanguo's emperor is assassinated. Heron's Nest is attacked by the Minister of Justice's inquisitors, claiming that the guild is responsible, and Feng is dragged into the scheming of the Zhanguo noble society as they vie to fill the power vacuum. He must hold out against the inquisitors' relentless onslaught to protect the people he holds dear while trying to uncover the true culprit. Corpse of the Dragon follows Feng as he uncovers a series of veiled truths and hidden agendas against almost insurmountable odds. At the end of his quest to find the regicide is a world-shattering confrontation that may lead to the ultimate demise of Heron's Nest.
