Tien's Landing is a port town that was named after the first Emperor Sagacious Tien who founded the Jade Empire. The original Tien's Landing village was one of the oldest in the Jade Empire, serving as a gateway to the Silkworm River trade route. It was even thought to be the initial stop of Sagacious Tien, the first Emperor, on his legendary journey from the uncharted east and was named as such. There are no records to prove this claim one way or another, however, and it did not protect the town from the plans of more recent leaders.

When the great drought ended twenty years ago, Emperor Sun Hai commissioned a dam to tame the fast flowing waters of the Silkworm River. The resulting reservoir flooded the basin of Tien's Landing. Ample warning was given and the village was resettled further up the river, but some of the more undesirable residents were apparently abandoned to the water. Shame over this event is cited as a reason Tien's Landing has not yet regained its former importance.
