y.0 — Broken Chains
“The Ultimatum Spoken.
The hammer strikes the chains,
and then, War.”
The Weight of Rumor, Propaganda
Our most humble beginning is in the small port town, Einier, sitting on the coast of Ager Ethe barely two generations removed from the original settlers. Before the spread of the cancerous rumor which ignited the beginning of an era, Port Einier was the materials export point for the lords who founded the small town in the new world from across the sea in the old world.
On the first day of y.0, the court records state the unverified Declaration of Secession was ratified in spite of its questionable sources. Giving legitimate powers enough shake to begin the processes of reclamation, and sparking the idea in hundreds of thousands across the old world to take a new stand against the tyrannical, or at the least, chasing the promise of a better life across the Lain Divide Saltsea.
