CHINA 484 A.D.

All her life, Mulan has trained for one purpose: to win the duel that every generation in her family must fight.  Then a messenger from the Emporer arrives, demanding that all families send one soldier to fight the Rouran invaders.  Mulan takes up her sword and joins the army.

Thanks to her martial arts skills, she is chosen for an elite team under the command of the princeling–But the princeling has secrets of his own.  As they cross the Great Wall to face the enemy beyond, Mulan and the princeling must find a way to unwind their past, unmask a traitor, and uncover the plans for the Rouran invasion…before it’s too late.
