Against the Black Lotus
Mountain's Shadow was a small village at the base of a sheer cliff. A trick of the mountains surrounding the town meant that it would often get a period of extended twilight during the day, getting lit up again when the sun passed between the peaks. The great waterfall and the magnificence of the cliff made for it a popular pilgrimage for those in the Wulin.
Mountain's Shadow, a place for them to rest before and after assaulting the cliffs, has always found great affection and favor in the practitioners of the Martial Arts. It's not unusual for children born in Mountain's Shadow to become fighters themselves, traveling with the warriors who arrive to test themselves. Not everyone appreciates the town, however.
While you were training, Hooded Cobra of the Black Lotus Society, brought death to your village for the turning in of a Black Lotus thug. Mountain's Shadow was made an example of, to crush the wills of any who might go against them.
Hooded Cobra has gone back to Jiankang, the Imperial Capital, and thinks nothing of the men, women, and children he left burning in the plains.
He must pay for what he has done, though it shall raise the ire of the Black Lotus and the nobles of Jiankang, of which he is also a member. You've grown into mighty warriors who can make a name in the martial arts world of the Wulin. The time is now, you can wait no longer.
Vengeance will be yours.
Thus are great heroes of the Wulin made.
