As always, I have never read the novels before. Tribes and Empires: Storm of Prophecy (海上牧云记) is the drama adaptation of the novel written by Jin He Zai. It’s the first series set in Novoland, a period in Kevin Cheng’s Hua Xu Yin: City of Desperate Love. I don’t have time right now to translate the synopsis but it looks like bromance is the main theme among the men: Huang Xuan (a lonely half-human half-spirit prince who is under house arrest), Shawn Dou (a general son who is abandoned and lives on the streets), and Zhou Yi Wei (a fearless heir of a dying tribe). They will rise and seek revenge for the wrongs done against them.
Meet the Cast:
Huang Xuan (Les Interprètes) and Shawn Dou (To The Fore).
Janice Man (The Legend of Zu) and Xu Lu (The Wife’s Lies).

Will this be Shawn Dou’s first drama series?
Barbie Hsu is almost unrecognizable o__o or is that just me?
I like the cast so far so hopefully the drama delivers! 🙂
