Synopsis "CIUDAD DE JADE (in Spanish)"

LA FAMILIA ES DEBER. LA MAGIA ES PODER. EL HONOR LO ES TODO.

El jade es lo que da vida a la isla de Kekon. Se ha extraído de las minas, se ha intercambiado, se ha robado y se ha matado por él. Y, durante siglos, los honorables guerreros de los Huesos Verdes, guerreros como la familia Kaul, lo han usado para potenciar sus habilidades mágicas y defender la isla de invasiones extranjeras.

Ahora, la guerra ha terminado y una nueva generación de la familia lucha por el control de la bulliciosa capital de Kekon. Solo les preocupa proteger a los suyos, controlar el comercio del jade y defender los distritos que están bajo su protección. Las antiguas tradiciones apenas tienen cabida en esta nación marcada por rápidos e incesantes cambios.

Cuando surge una nueva droga que permite a cualquiera, incluso a los extranjeros, hacer uso del jade, la tensión entre los Kaul y una familia rival, los Ayt, llega a tal extremo que se desata una guerra abierta. El resultado de esta lucha entre clanes determinará el destino de todos los Huesos Verdes, y de la isla de Kekon.
