Story In the world of Cascadia, peace reigns over all. The many sentient races that exist on the planet get along with each other quite well. Choosing to cooperate with each other instead of waging mindless war over trivial things. They share among even other races, not just their own. And so, prosperity reigned over the planet for many, many years. Although recently, destruction has been abundant. Nobody knows why, but many people have been growing violent over the days and spontaneous personality changes are occurring. Mindless slaughter happens virtually everyday, even in well-protected cities. The different races began to blame each other, and all of this lead to the First Cascadian War. Alliances were made and people began to take sides. You are one of these people and you seek to find the reason for this carnage. Or will you instead take advantage of it?
