A Legacy of Fury: The Fall of the Witch of the East (1900)

STRIFE! History's Conflicts Podcast: A house falls from a clear sky, and a ruler is erased not by a rival, but by an accident. Her citadel, a monument to order and power, now stands leaderless, its guardians circling in silent, furious grief. They are the loyalists of a system just declared wicked, their world unraveling as a strange girl steals their sacred symbols and calls it destiny. This is the moment where history fractures, where victory for one side becomes a catastrophic invasion for the other. The conquerors write the story, branding the fallen as evil and their own cause as just. But from the shadows of the shattered throne, a new truth crystallizes—not from magic, but from a vow of enduring hate. This is the hidden history of a collapse, a story that challenges everything we remember about good, evil, and the bitter price of a happy ending.
