The Chain is a continent inching closer to an industrial revolution and the lines between magic and science are blurring. A complex history of political power and religious oppression paints the backdrop to the in-game event that brings your character here: The Chain's Fair, this world's gathering of scientists, dignitaries and leaders. Here, each of the Chain’s colonialist nations sends a group of envoys to present their most groundbreaking scientific (or secretly magical?) developments. Secretly, a group of revolutionaries has infiltrated the event to kill the continent's most prominent leaders.
