We don’t know where we are.
In the past or in an incredibly distant future? Or maybe in a parallel reality or a virtual simulation so credible that it’s indistinguishable from the real world?
Whatever it is, Unity is now our home.
And we will fight for it.
The Golden Sprout of Yggdrasil under the sky of Unity grows stronger and stronger, and in its roots lies a secret. From above, the unkind eye of the Heavenly Throne—a disc of accretion hiding Eternity—looks down on the land’s freemen, what the locals consider the dwelling of gods.
We know its rulers are watching us, tracking us, and waiting to seize what they lost a whole abyss of time ago. We know they play strange games with us, and we’ll have to work hard to turn from pieces into those capable of flipping the sphere.
Now we know—and we act. We accumulate strength and forge new alliances to outwit those to whom time itself is subject. The Lords of Eternity believe they cannot lose. But they forgot what those they summoned are capable of.
Those whose rank is unknown.
