Its been a thousand years since the Golden Era began and there have been nine different heirs to the throne (thus their in their time of waiting for the next). The latest Maester, La'Kaithryne has ruled with an iron fist that people hadn't seen since the last male Maester.
A military quarantine has been placed in Delilah Sands and a terrorist alert put in effect. Many exiles have been killed already and many more have lost their homes while they search for an anarchist party who've been rumored to have been planning to kill the Maester.
A royal adviser had a vision of the Maester's demise that cause the military quarentine, but rumors of the brutal slayings of helpless exiles have led many citizens to believe their "fearless" leader is scared and searching. An increase in military recruitment has many Xukyn parents hiding away their children. Retesting for Militia College has been issued in Academy and pretesting for Primary School has started.
Security has been tightened around the Capital, but everyone turns a blind eye. They're exiles after all, some of them should have been sentenced to death anyways, right?
Truth is, a High Priestess had another vision. An extended version of the one the royal adviser had. In it she saw the Maester's death as well as countless others. Two beings... The Sacreds were killing Xukyns. Whole families decimated and left as bloody carcasses. She was able to ask the beings what their cause of turmoil was. Their answer? Racial purification...
Genocide.
The truth, however, hasn't reached the ears of the common folk and random killings and massacres have them doubting their ruler. Small groups of rebels have risen and forced the Maester to fight them back with her army. The longer she holds back the truth, the more corrupt she appears in her people's eyes. But to reveal the truth is to cause mass hysteria.
The planet is dividing with loyalists to the Maester and new age rebels. Civil War is on the horizon and still the impending divine genocide is creeping along on the outskirts of the regions. Still, no one knows what the genocide is targeting.
Who will you stand with? Will you follow you leader blindly or ally with your countrymen? Where is the new heir to the throne?
The choice is yours.
((Keep in mind that no one knows of the genocide save for those high up in the military and those close to the Maester. So to be a loyalist is to follow your leader who has appeared to cracked and is killing massive amounts of people and is unable to account for the deaths of the genocide))
