Things were going very badly for the Yan Region. It was one thing to conquer a country but another matter to establish control. Due to the haste in which the Emperor conquers the Kingdoms of Xian, Liang and Yan, the eastern region of Leirmat is currently a hell hole.

The former Yan Kingdom was a complete mystery, known for its Sages in practically every fields. It was not only one of the three smallest Kingdoms, being second smallest in Leirmat. Yan was able to cut off contact from the rest of Leirmat and survive for over 150 years, at the end of which, Yan only seem to prosper even more than it did when communications with this mysterious kingdom was finally re-established at the end of its isolation.

The natives of Yan rarely leave the land but in the rare cases where people of Yan visit another Kingdom, they proved to be sages with expertise in certain fields that is way more advanced than the rest of Leirmat. This earned Yan the Kingdom of Sages and their people were greatly valued.

When the Jing Kingdom kept a Sage from Yan against his wishes in an attempt to force him to help them by building new weapons to get an edge over Sui Kingdom, the Sage proved to be more than a match in combat as he performed superhuman feats, leaping over a twenty feet tall Stone wall and causing a Guard Tower to collapse using a simple attacking motion without even touching the Tower physically.

While he was running, agents from Sui attempted to "help him" so to put him in debt to Sui Kingdom with the same intentions as the Jing, During this time, the sage was rumored to have met and received help in running away from Jing and Sui pursuers without asking anything in return. The Sage left the King of Xia a scroll. He told the King to study the scroll, pass down what he learns to his son and tell his son to do the same.

The King of Xia took the Sage's words seriously and did as he was told. From then onwards the scroll became Xia's Imperial Heirloom, with each passing of Scrolls to a new King, Xia seemed to grow in power. Many people particularly Xia insist that it was a baseless rumor attempting to mystify the Yan Kingdom and it was not true, they argued that Xia had long surpassed Yan and that was why Leirmat was conquered by Xia and not Yan.

Twenty years after the end of the Emperor's conquests, Yan Kingdom remained just as lawless as it did the day it was conquered by the Empire. Not only that, most of the people seem to be commoners descended from other places in Leirmat with no special skills, not a single mysterious sage told in the stories nor anything tomes or blueprints that was as advanced as the stories told was found. This further strengthens the beliefs that the stories of the sages were just a lie.

The Empire is the most prosperous and advanced Kingdom who rightfully fulfill its mandate!
