The Last Petals of Ming
A Tale of porcelain, mystery, and the whispers of the ancient east
Winter had descended upon the Ming dynasty, blanketing the city of Beijing in a thick layer of snow. The once-majestic Forbidden City, with its intricately carved eaves and glazed roofs, seemed to slumber, its beauty hidden beneath a mantle of white. The Qing dynasty had long since claimed the throne, and the whispers of the ancient east grew faint, like the dying embers of a dying flame.It was during this winter of discontent that a peculiar occurrence began to unfold.
