General Mei-Lan of the Crimson Horizon

The Storm That Rides

The banners of her ancestors whip in the desert wind as Mei-Lan leads the Crimson Vanguard into the dying light of another war. Her armor, etched with symbols of forgotten dynasties, gleams with the dust of centuries — each mark a battle survived, each dent a life avenged. Behind her, the horizon burns, reflecting both the sunset and the fire within her heart.

They say she was born during a storm that split the mountains, and that lightning has never left her blood. To her soldiers, she is not merely a general — she is destiny in motion, the storm that rides. When her blade rises, silence follows; when her voice commands, even fear itself obeys.

She does not fight for conquest, but for balance — to remind the world that peace must be defended by those willing to bear its cost in steel and sacrifice. And as dusk falls, the wind whispers her name — Mei-Lan, the unbroken.
