'l envision a world where every man is free, where the boots of dictators are nothing more than paper, but to achieve this, Mankind must be ready to fight, they have nothing to lose but the chains that binds them' -Vasily, 'Free man Doctrine', 1968

Colony of Altarus, Le Brias, December 18th 1639

It was a calm Morning, The People walked the streets with a slight tinge of terror, Papaldian troops were in the middle of haggling a poor family.this sight had become very common for weeks now.

"Please stop! My daughter has nothing to do with this!" The Father pleaded

"What are you trying to say?! Your daughter is suspected of being a rebel! Whether or not she's innocent will be made clear once the Altarus governing board has done a thorough investigation!" The Captain shouted as he punched the father on the ground.

The Father got up again and his eyes showed fear and anger.

"B-But, the governing board only ever takes pretty young girls back to the capital! And they were all executed as rebels! It's not possible for every one of them to be guilty!" He said ''Please My Daughter is only 13! How could she commit any crimes''

"You dare slander us?! The empire's intelligence gathering capabilities are simply flawless! Now, get out of the way!"The Captain said as he grappled the girl by the arms

"Please, no! Daddy!" The Girl cried in terror

''Shut Up!'' The Captain said as he knocked her out.

Today, once again, the Papaldia Empire's Altarus governing board personnel accused a young girl of being associated with an anti-government organization and came to take her into custody. The Kingdom of Altarus lost the war against the empire, so this was now a familiar sight in the country's towns, It happen once every day on average. The father, desperate to save his daughter, clutched at the staff member. The staff member swung his baton down at the father's head. The man collapsed to the ground, his head bleeding from where he was clubbed.

''Fucking Trash'' Sat the Captain

The girl was taken away by the Altarus governing board. None of the girls taken away by the board ever returned. No one believed for a second that these girls had anything to do with any rebel groups, but they were still executed in the name of "justice."

In Altarus's royal capital of Le Brias, there were rumors that the head of the Altarus governing board, Schsok, was a perverted predator who targeted young girls, kidnapped them, did whatever he wanted to them, then silenced them by having them killed. These rumors were all true. The board's enforcers frequently traveled to villages and hit on women. If those women turned down their advances, they would say: "Maybe someone in your family is a rebel." That line would usually shut them up and make them give in. If they wanted money, they would go to a household that seemed rich and just take it by using the same line.

Worse yet, He would hang the naked corpses over the walls of the city, making sure resistance was too weak to go against him, It was a Sick sight.This humiliating governing board represented the current 'Kingdom' of Altarus.Despite the Resistance knowing about 'General Secretary' Lumiess, None knew what Socialism Was, leading to many long debates on what is was, Which was the most confusion debates they ever seen.

Captain Rial, a member of an anti-empire underground organization, was patrolling in plain clothes today. He had faith in Lumiess's plan to liberate Altarus, so he was making preparations and scouting out the defenses at important areas. Today, yet again, he watched a parent being beaten nearly to death while a child was dragged away crying. Rial had held the position of captain of the 1st Cavalry Division in the former Kingdom of Altarus. He had a strong sense of justice, so seeing that scene and being unable to help was akin to torture. However, if he were caught, when Lumiess made the call to action, no one else could take command. He considered risking his life to save her, but his leadership ability was crucial for the future of the entire Nation. He wept in his heart.
