Iska, 1885, Capital of the Kingdom of Skadesi.
All the while, in the background; there was a storm brewing.
It felt as if time stopped for a moment - a gargantuan KABOOM could be heard, and a massive shaking, as if Mount Vaikostos itself had erupted. But no - it was much worse. People began to form a crowd around a certain building and many scrambled to see what on Eras it was. But to their horror, the National Bank smoked and was in flames. They could only watch in terror as the building crumbled into itself and with it the entirety of Skadesi's economy and prosperity that they had worked so hard to achieve...

People began to murmur to themselves, and a slow agreement emerged...
"Yeah! This man's right! We have been betrayed before! Our beloved King Rilleik has embezzled our country's funds before, and we can't stand for it!", another exclaimed in agreement.
The man in the top hat - Januk Sildgir, the head of the Skadesi Accelerationist Party, knew that things were unfolding in his favor. Now, the future of Skadesi would begin to shift in his image. The future was his to mold...
