The Confederacy of Zoi is a nation on the brink. Two decades of warfare and yearly patronage to the Great Empire has left the collection of nations writhing with contempt. As the nation approaches its once in a decade elections, those internal rumblings begin to rise to the surface as Senator Alexei Oldurson and his political boss run a divisive campaign that seeks to upset the norms.

Meanwhile, a murder of a young Dwarven girl only inflames these tensions, and threatens to reveal a conspiracy to awaken a dark deity long sealed away. A conspiracy led by the shadowy trickster, known as the Jakal of the North.

Most of us long to "Be" but when the path gets too costly, or steep, we take solace in what we "Have." Remove the trappings of what we own and then what is the sum of us? They were the survivors, abandoned by the allies who swore to protect, in the ultimate gesture of greed and betrayal. Their world plunged into annihilation and chaos. With the passage of years in this blighted landscape order was established anew. Those who had been anonymous before the war found their will to rule, those who had experienced the comforts and ease of western life, thrust into darkness and despair. This brutal conflict had awoken those long sleeping, those who had ceased to care, those of immense power, the ones entrusted with the safe keeping of the often volatile mankind. Although their parallel world too was at risk, lethargy and arrogance ruled them. Against the backdrop of this savage landscape the saga of three such tribes of survivors unfold, and the unwitting chosen among them. One tribe sought to prosper via savagery, one by organized military might, and the other who ruled with no more than fairness and love. Three tribes thrown together, competing for the limited resources to survive, in a world teetering on the brink of total decimation. Driven by human avarice.
