Whilst the Alliance and the Treaty, each binding a collection of 5 distinct regions of the world together, have been around for many generations, there are myths, legends and some say even official records of different sequences and groupings of regions before. For as long as any characters and their living family have known however the state of the world has been that the two collections exist and the regions within them work together for the betterment of all within and against those without.

The only citizens to have crossed from one collective to another would have done so on a mission of some kind and only by agreeing a wager with Kamata or with the aid of some other Deity, because the Alliance worship only the Deities of Order, whilst only the Deities of Chaos are permitted to be worshipped by the Treaty – at least openly and legally. Just as the Deities of each scale bicker between themselves as siblings, so too are the relations between individual regions in each collective purely harmonious. The over-riding laws of the universe persist though and any disputes are overcome.

A couple of weeks ago 2 regions went dark, Uspon of the Alliance and Obral of the Treaty. Since then, each of their neighbouring regions has received an amount of desperate citizens seeking refuge but nowhere near the amount that would be expected from such large regions even if some devastating natural disaster were to have occurred. Those who have emerged have all shared confusing and conflicting stories about what has happened with the only consistent aspect being the overwhelming horror that infected them. Almost no-one has been able to properly recover even as physical injuries have begun to heal.
