Synopsis
The year is 1704, the fiftieth year of Harana I, 22nd Emperor of the Holy Empire of Takista. Floods sweep through villages deep in the mountains, a deadly plague spreads through the populous cities, and, to top it off, the Crown Prince has been killed in a war...or that was what everyone believed. This book focuses on the journey of the Prince of Hanshai, Damia Takistaru, heir presumptive to the Imperial Throne, and a reincarnated genius from the 21st century!

Pikes, spears, bows, swords, shields, and essentially any weapon that would be practical in a large scale hand-to-hand war, accompanied the armour on the ground.
