Over a thousand years ago, the great kingdom of China was under constantthreat of invasion by powerful tribes and warring states along its ruggedwestern border. For generations, one fiercely-patriotic clan of warriors ―the “Yang” ― battled bravely in the nation’s defense.The widows of the clan pleaded with the Emperor, whose own court had becomeweakened by corruption and greed, to send reinforcements. But none came. Soon,the last remaining Yang soldiers were overwhelmed by a sea of bloodthirstyinvaders. Distraught and incensed, the Yang widows ― a few hundred strongand many of whom also seasoned warriors ― took arms and set off to thewestern border. But even before reaching the enemy, the journey itself would befraught with peril. In their determination to avenge the deaths of their lovedones, the Widow Warriors would face the full fury of nature’s mostdestructive forces, a vast enemy army with sorcery and monsters on its side, andperhaps most powerful of all, the demons within themselves!
