History
Some parts of Pei-lei-gang pre-date the Kartaran empire.
In fact, some parts of the city and the palace pre-date Kartaran history and even mythology.
The verbal history holds that the first mothers of the Banbutsunoreichou slew God, finding him in his city only after battling his armies for three days. Without a chance for rest, they then fought for seven more days, eventually destroying him. Naturally, each race claims credit for the final blow. Upon his death, a great and wonderful citadel that expressed all he had imprisoned grew within the city and the ancestors claimed this for their own. They then rested for seven days, each staking out a portion of the palace. The Great Mother of the Torareichou claimed the smallest portion, but included in this was the hall that would become the Home of the Empire, or the Grand Throne.
The Smilodon remember similarly tales but claim their ancestor, exhausted beyond the others, for she had fought hardest and greatest, had fallen asleep before the others and been slain. The Smilodon have a strange relationship with death so this mattered for only a matter of months.
