On that vast continent, people worshipped a deity known as Di Jun. Appearing in the form of a bird, Di Jun emerged from the primordial mud sea to shape mountains and rivers, giving birth to all things in the world.

Di Jun also laid five eggs—each one a different color. From these eggs were born five children who demarcated the borders of five nations and took on the responsibility of ruling them. The kings and queens prefixed their kingdoms’ names with the hue of the egg from which they had sprung, cherishing that particular shade as sacred.

This is the tale of five imperial harem stories, each unfolding around those cloaked in robes of the five colors.

A young emperor who has distanced himself from the throne encounters an unruly queen, an alliance that sends shockwaves through the entire Kingdom of Yellow. A girl raised in a poor village stumbles upon fate within the harem of the Kingdom of Black. Bonds forged between warring tribes compel their people to make a final, fateful choice… in the Kingdom of White. A maiden determined to become empress instead finds herself drawn to an unassuming clerk from a foreign land…? In the Kingdom of Red. And what truly lies behind the mysterious death of the most beloved consort in the Kingdom of Blue?
