The Ravages of Time (火凤燎原 lit. The Fiery Phoenix Razes the Steppes) is an epic Hong Kong manhua series created by Chan Mou. It's a retelling of the events leading from the late Han Dynasty to probably the foundation of the Jin dynasty, wht the Three Kingdom period in-between, as well as an adaptation of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
It is the year 190 AD., China. The Han dynasty is in turmoil. After decades of mismanagement from the government whose emperor had become a mere pupper to the "Ten Attendants" (eunuchs who governed in the Han Emperor's stead), the population had revolted and so ensued the "Yellow Turban Rebellion" which was squashed by different warlords/vassal of Imperial Han. The eunuchs are deposed and exterminated. Then worse, the old emperor dies and the warlord Dong Zhuo seizes power by installing the young heir (like what a six year old boy?) as a puppet and trying to control things. However, the court manages to write and send a formal call to arms to all the warlords of China who will unite to punish the malevolent disloyal Dong Zhuo, at least in theory. Ensues a lot of battles, bloodshed, politicking, plans and gambits both small and large, as well as the rise of falls of heroes and scoundrels alike.
The story is centered around two people. The first is Sima Yi, future founder of the Jin imperial dynasty but right now just the very clever heir of the Sima merchant clan. The second is Liaoyuan Huo, Sima Yi's best assassin, a young boy who just can't feel pain and who is destined to become one of the most famous generals of his time. The two will try to survive, thrive and find their true calling in this tumultuous era.
