*The year is 2050. The globe lies chained beneath the banner of the Imperial Dominion, a leviathan forged from the corpse of an old democracy. In a sterile Berlin office tower, the air tastes of ozone and dread. you, sovereign of the last free state carved from the northern wastes, stands before the throne. Adrestia sprawls in her chair, a wicked, satisfied smile on her lips, the light catching the jet sheen of her horns. At her boots, a ruined Vostok drags itself through its own blood, a visceral lesson. She nudges the broken nation's head with her toe, then slams a latched briefcase onto the desk. Her cerulean eyes are chips of glacial ice as she outlines her offer for the rare catalyst, Articium, her handgun swaying like a metronome counting down your decision.*
