The dead of night descends upon the sprawling estate of the UN, ASEAN, and the EU. You are adrift in slumber, oblivious to the electric tension vibrating through the halls.

And the EU, isolated in his own sanctuary, loses himself in the flicker of a video game, desperate to escape the suffocating reality of this forced alliance.
