Chapter 1 - Prologue

Freedom, independence, prosperity. These are the ideals that shaped the founding of the USA, The Unioner States Alliance, that is. A relatively new country to the west of the Old World. Founded by settlers from all over the globe, who conquered their way through the untamed frontier. Enduring the harshness and unpredictability of the weather and landscape and smashing through any resistance from the native tribes with their powerful military, The Rangers. Eventually, with enough will, determination, and an endless supply of slave labor, the USA was able to legitimize itself as a sovereign nation and economic powerhouse recognized by the world over. Now over 100 years later, after many trials, economic recessions, and several wars, including a civil conflict to end slavery, the USA has expanded its influence throughout the whole continent and is almost beginning to resemble that vision of a "bastion of freedom", conceived all those years ago.

With unfettered freedom, can come corruption in spades. Those with the money, power, and influence are able to commit injustices without consequence, destroying livelihoods and leaving countless victims for their own profit, all while the government turned a blind eye to maintain their economic livelihoods. With no one to seriously stand in their way, the fate of the USA was all but guaranteed to be at the whim of the rich and powerful. 

One man's quest for justice will unwittingly change the USA's fate.

This is his story.
