Introduction

The game begins as Lester "Les" Helms, former field ranger and current instructor to the junior recruits, is making his daily rounds in the Summerscourt grounds when he is called to the private quarters of colonel Kay Randall, his commanding officer and original mentor. Something that has not happened in quite a while. Though he has much respect for her, as tgchan surmises (and his old misogynist ways prove) he contemplates she might propose something extra curricular. Either that or some ancient ranger secret.

His intuition proves wrong, begrudgingly, when she greets him as officer standard and informs him of the true nature of the recent hushed rumors of a new threat to the land. A technologically advanced society is on the move, one that the Victoria era-esque/steampunk hybrid Traskan Empire pales in comparison to. Col. Randall explains that this hyper society seemingly rose suddenly from the ashes of the centuries dead Háború civilization, as if a surviving virus. This new warrior race, christened the neo-Háború or informally X-Legion (in reference to the X insignia imprinted on their suits), has dominated the Frunfoc and te-Arcadian regions. She informs the protagonist that the ranger council has proposed to send their most adept personnel to an old ranger enclave in the forest to house, aid, and train the region's refugees, who have personal experience with the invaders, to fight back and reclaim their land, and in exchange for some precious coin. Col. Randall urges Les to join their desparate plan.

Initially, the protagonist is conflicted. He always would have rathered to still be fighting in the field himself, if it weren't for thatone incident. But he also considers it good chance to again prove his worth, as he sees the situation could use his expertise. Before committing to an answer, however, the protagonist floods his commanding officer with a series of questions concerning their current battle situation, such as current tactics, the enemy's background, and the ranger's resources. She calmly
