## Prelude to Conflict

### Emergence of Tribes

As the Second Genesis unfolded, the world of Source witnessed the emergence of two distinct tribes, each stemming from the same ancestral lineage yet diverging in ethos and purpose. The Good Guys, creations of The Eternal City, epitomized virtue, harmony, and enlightenment. Conversely, the Bad Guys, corrupted iterations of their benign counterparts, epitomized aggression, dominance, and malevolence.

### Evolution into Nations

Over time, these tribes coalesced into formidable nations, each guided by distinct ideologies yet united by a shared ancestry. The Good Guys fostered a civilization rooted in empathy, cooperation, and reverence for the natural world, mirroring the essence and spirit of the Lulus. In contrast, the Bad Guys gravitated towards dominance, conquest, and subjugation, forging an empire under the tyrannical rule of Mr. Bad Guy, a genetically enhanced "Super Alpha" of unparalleled strength and brutality.

### Mr. Bad Guy's Reign

Under Mr. Bad Guy's dominion, the Bad Guys embarked on a savage conquest, reminiscent of historical conquerors like Genghis Khan. Pillage, plunder, and devastation marked his reign as he sought to unify and subjugate his brethren under a banner of fear and awe. His subjects, initially terror-stricken, soon became enthralled by his indomitable power, succumbing to a fervent allegiance fueled by admiration and fear.

Across the world, The Good Guys cultivated a harmonious civilization, fostering alliances, nurturing the land, and nurturing a deep bond with the Earth. Agents from The Eternal City, avatars of fallen Lulian kings, assumed leadership roles, guiding their tribes towards enlightenment and spiritual unity. Despite their peaceful demeanor, The Good Guys remained vigilant, honing their combat skills and preparing for the inevitable clash with their malevolent counterparts.

#### The Dueling Dominions: The Alliance vs. The Khanate

As epochs passed, the world of Source bifurcated into two dominant factions: The Alliance, led by Mr. Good Guy, and The Khanate, under the despotic rule of Mr. Bad Guy. These two entities governed vast swathes of the planet, maintaining an uneasy peace punctuated by skirmishes, conflicts, and ideological clashes. Both leaders, endowed with lifespans far exceeding their subjects, upheld a fragile balance, preserving a semblance of harmony amidst escalating tensions.

### The Shattering of Peace

However, the veneer of tranquility proved ephemeral. Fueled by inner turmoil, Mr. Bad Guy's ambitions, and an insatiable thirst for dominance, he unleashed a global war, shattering the longstanding era of peace and prosperity. The Alliance and The Khanate clashed in a cataclysmic conflict, setting the stage for a pivotal juncture in Source's history, where destinies would be forged, alliances tested, and the very fabric of civilization hung in the balance.

The Second Genesis, while ushering in an era of renewal and prosperity, also bore witness to the emergence of dichotomous forces, each vying for dominance and ideological supremacy. The rise of The Alliance and The Khanate, underpinned by the leadership of Mr. Good Guy and Mr. Bad Guy, respectively, marked a transformative epoch where peace, conflict, and the eternal struggle between light and darkness converged, shaping the destiny of Source and its inhabitants for generations to come.

## Darkness Falls

As the war rages on, the landscape of Source transforms into a nightmarish tableau. The Bad Guys unleash a relentless barrage of monstrous creations—Crazies, Ghosts, Dragons, Chimeras, and Shadow Spirits—each more formidable than the last. Villains, handpicked by Alkibas, lead these dark legions, orchestrating sieges, laying waste to cities, and sowing terror across the Alliance's territories.

### The Alliance's Fortress Network

Anticipating the impending conflict, the Good Guys had meticulously prepared for this apocalyptic confrontation. They unveiled a network of massive fortresses, intricate defenses, and strategic strongholds, decades in the making. These bastions, interconnected by underground tunnels and fortified walls, served as bulwarks against the relentless onslaught of the Bad Guys, providing sanctuary, strategy, and a rallying point for the Alliance's defenders.

This set the stage for Many centuries to come. As between this line of forts were the Midlands, entire realms and continents outside of the Wall of the Alliances magniot lines.
