Old Fool

In the celestial empire, during the ninth year of the Mandate of Heaven,
Chaos reigns across the land, and the people suffer.
The royal governance collapses, and western barbarians with their pantheon of gods invade.
New warlords arise, claiming territories; the Taiping rebels wreak havoc, leading to widespread misery.
Calamities like floods, droughts, earthquakes, sandstorms, tornadoes, acid rain, blood moons, and meteor falls occur in succession.
