Emperor Gaozu is the first emperor of the Han dynasty, and appears here as both his imperial self nearing the end of his life, and as the commoner Liu Bang.
Liu Bang is a charismatic leader with a loyal cadre of followers, but already 48. He dreams of fighting alongside the 24-year old nobleman Xiang Yu, and boldly asks him for men so he can free his village. He joins Xiang Yu's rebellion against the Qin. Soon after, Liu Bang's ambition is awoken and his friendship and alliance with Xiang Yu falls apart.
Emperor-narrator Gaozu is old and paranoid, haunted by nightmares of Xiang Yu and General Xin, who helped him defeat Xiang Yu and gain the empire. He is becoming more and more frail and holed up in his palace, leaving his wife empress Lü Zhi to secure more and more power over the court.
