The fall of an Empire

Just before the end of the 19th century, a group will arise. This group will consist of heroes from across the empire, who will expose all the secrets and lies that have kept the people of the empire down. That have caused us to turn away from the injustice. Lies that have kept the emperor, a man of no real power, in charge of our people. Of more than our people. Of every people he comes across on this continent.   The group will reveal everything. And the Emperors power will crumble, like the stone of an old building that has fallen into disrepair. The empire will turn to dust, and from it a new age will dawn, goverened by the people, chosen by the people.   With representation from all over the lands. From all sorts of people. The empire will fall and be replaced with a society that doesn't care for who and what you are. Where anyone can have their say.   A society where free speech is allowed, where religion is free to be chosen by the people. Where nobody is forced into a situation they do not consent to.   The last emperor will die and his sons will all walk free, into a new dawn, where they are not destined to die or kill each other.   And the old dieties will not fall. They are stronger than the false emperor.
