It is the year 2550. Much of the world has fallen after the decline of Technological Era, with only a select few nations remaining. The world once again operates as an empire, with England at it's head. Overall, the world runs quite peacefully, with wars and conflicts becoming more and more scarce; that is, until a group of communist rebels called the Dawn Army attempts to murder the Royal Family, believing the world is operating inefficiently under them.
Enter Taine Asher-Brennan: the eldest son of the King of England, heir to an Empire, and the only member of the Royal Family to escape the assassination. Now, with the help of his new friend, Reid, it's a race against time and death to reclaim the throne before the Dawn Army can finish him off and take the world for themselves.
