In 1911 a thaumaturgy occurred in the Mongolian Steppe that had not been made manifest in centuries. The Khans had united. Their banners where raised, the shackles of tyranny where removed and the nation's heart stirred in such fashion that fire turned to iron. The old ways had resurfaced; the tribes set aside their differences and the aristocrats rose to the challenge, in plains and mountains under the eternal blue sky, the Mongols where mobilizing. Never again would they be bound by a foreign oppressor; never again would a foreigner dictate to them how to live in their own lands. The time of the Ikh Mongol Uls had come again. The Khagan would return to lead his people to freedom and greatness and those who had presumed the Mongols weak and divided, would soon realize that there is more to Heaven and Earth than what they dreamt of in their philosophy. Armies assembled, shamans convened, the masses exalted, the dawn of the century and a nation arising, the legacy of Genghis Khan, Hulagu and Timur would be used as an inspiration for great accomplishments of valor and acts of heroism, that would usher a new age, one in which Mongols would grasp the mantle of authority over their own destiny and ascend to their previous heights.
