Preface

Shortly after the beginning of the 22nd Century the world was left in a technological recession after the fall of the currency markets all across the world. With no money to fund the advancement of scientific theory the sciences became an underground practice. Due to the halt of "extraneous" medical research like preventative pharmaceuticals the world was unprepared when a great sickness fell upon the Earth. Many lives were lost and no cure could be found. With only 40% of the population genetically immune; the majority of the world went into a frenzy, consumed with the belief that death was inevitable. Anarchy spread throughout the nations of the world for countless years. Civil Wars and power struggles consumed the survivors. Those in power were overthrown due to their incompetence.

One day, after over a Century of chaos, seven extraordinary people appeared and would eventually bring order to the world. These individuals were able to bring the people of Earth together; some used their leadership and others used force. The world was reborn under the "Seven Hands of Fate."

Soon the Earth was divided into four regions:
Terruomo (Formerly Asia),
Terralumen (Formerly Europe and Africa),
Terribestia (Formerly South America),
Terre
messor (Formerly North America).


And throughout these lands the people revered the arrival of the Seven as an act of God. Thusly the timeline had begun anew. The year is now 84 C.M. (Cum Manus=with hands)

The world created by these seven individuals in now serves as the stage for the events of our tale.
