Everything You Know is Wrong
The word is advancing at a leisurely pace, steam technology becoming ever more efficient, and that technology has powered a new expansion of trade and exploration. To most, this is a good development, and they rest easy in the assurance that man will soon master even higher realms.
But not you. You know, whether through birth, training, or happenstance, that there are two massive struggles going on in the shadows
There is a group that wishes to control the destiny of the entire world, and are willing to pay any cost to do so. Arrayed against them are those who fight for self-determination. They fight over the remnants of ancient civilizations. This battle has raged for centuries, and no one knows it's true beginnings.
Beyond that, there is another battle, and it is one that not even those ancient groups are fully aware of. In the old lands, their battle rages, but in the new lands, the battle lines are being drawn for new power against old wisdom.
A power has been awakened in the mystic Orient, and it endeavours to spread across the face of the world. The only forces arrayed against it are the old spirits, who are now in danger of being twice forgotten.
For now, both conflicts simmer under the surface of everyday cares, but recent and forthcoming events have the potential to change all of that.
Be ready.
