Empire of Shadows
Most people are born ordinary, but there are always a few who, even if born into mediocrity, aspire to greatness.From a nameless exploited laborer to a godfather in the shadows;From the bottom rung of society, bound by rules, to a secret emperor who crafts those very rules.When the sun shines, this nation belongs to the Federation. But when night falls, it belongs to me!“Sometimes, shadows can be just as vast as light—sometimes, they can even eclipse it.”“We never extort or blackmail anyone. Every penny we earn can withstand the scrutiny of our conscience.”If someone knocks on your door at night, they are either delivering my regards or bringing ruin for your arrogance.As for what you will receive, that depends on the choice you make, my friend!
