A storm is brewing in Vorbereich. Twenty years after a war with the Lindtin powers that ended in horrible losses for the country and its allies, the country is still as broken and divided as it was when the war ended... except, of course, for the ruling classes, who go to balls and dinner parties while the rest of the country struggles to survive.
