### Location

Caribbea and Pacifica

Five hundred years after a "Great Calamity" wiped out most of humanity, the remnants of human civilization now find themselves situated in a land known as Caribbea-Colombo, in a region that was believed to have been once called "Latin America" and "Bolivarian South America." To the north, was a region known as Amurcia, a largely uninhabited and vast expanse of land stretching to the Arctic north, dotted with the ancient ruins of breathtaking structures dating back to a people known once as "Americans." To the south of Colombo is a land known as 'The Great Desolation," in reference to the presence of a massive, impassable forest of decaying and charred trees of splendid heights, accompanied by ashen soil in which fires seem to burn endlessly. Across the seas there were lands called Eurasfro, where it is widely believed a vast desert of unimaginable distances stretches across the entire land, known as 'The Unending Wastes," reaching from what was once called Europe to the opposite side of the landmass in what was once known as China.

Despite some inheritance of information from the previous age, in the form of ancient texts and items, technology for the most part have regressed and now most of the population lives a life of intense agrarian agriculture, sheltered by poorly built homes and having lost all trace of "modernity." This population, which was primarily concentrated in Colombo, numbers around one hundred twenty million and most settlement consists of packed, small villages in close proximity to one another. The capital of Colombo, located in what was once known as Bogota (now called New Bogoto), represents the only form of dense, urban life, where approximately eleven million toil in ruined and muddy streets, and apartments are known to be stacked on top of each other haphazardly like jenga blocks, prone to collapse and being toppled by strong winds.

However to the north life was notably better, where most of the land of Caribbea was under jurisdiction by an entity known as the West Caribbea Trading Company, which had just been formed slightly over a decade ago (497 AC) by a man known as Jorge Alvarez, quickly elevating the people there to Prosperity. Trading with the people of Colombo and attempting to increase the quality of lives of people in all of Caribbea-Colombo, Jorge Alvarez is well liked and known to be popular across the entire land. Though even before this entity was formed, the "Northerners" have always enjoyed superior technology, superior conditions of living, and superior prosperity concentrated along the coasts of Caribbea Sea, in port cities such as Havano, Los Cruces, and Santa Maria. For hundreds of years, the old elites of this region kept their wealth to themselves, going as far as to building a massive wall separating Caribbea and Colombo, to which many dubbed "The Rich Man's Conviction." Now, with the presence of the West Caribbea Trading Company, life there is considered to be highly desirable by outsiders, as these port cities have been known to be called 'Treasure Ports" for not only their immense beauty, but for their amenities, prosperity, and opportunities. However, this population only numbers approximately fifteen million, as the other fifteen million live in the countryside of Caribbea, in agrarian lifestyles that were notably superior to that of the conditions of Colombo, but not quite at the level of the Treasure Port inhabitants. Here, schools, markets, small towns, and luscious sceneries create a quaint life, which were aided by financial contributions from the Company. However, West Caribbea was not without its own woes. Part of the formation of The West Caribbea Trading Company was in part due to the encroaching presence of pirates from "The Western Seas," a largely unexplored and unknown territory consisting of a vast ocean once known to be the Pacific. It was said that the people of "The Western Seas," known as "The Sea Peoples," were once a branch of people from Colombo, who desired to find a better life across the horizons. It was written that these initial adventurers, numbering no more than two thousand at first, ventured across "The Western Seas" and established a colony known as "Panacea," in the year 310 AC. For many decades there was no indication of their existence, until in the year 500 AC when raids starting occurring on the coasts of Caribbea, which prompted a response by the people of Caribbea. Since then, raids have become commonplace, and frequently the western shores of Caribbea suffer from the continued presence of these invaders, driving them further and further inland. Now, in the year 512 AC, there lived a girl by the name of Anicka Konvicka in the western fringes of Caribbea, where the story would begin...

The story is divided into three parts. Part One is titled "Daybreak", Part Two is titled "Meridian," and Part Three is titled "Eventide."
