**The War** - A great conflict of disaster that swallowed the known world.
**The Modern Kingdom** - Stable time of unity and prosperity. The conventional setting for the game.
**The Knightly Orders** - Groups of people devoted to a cause and/or servitude.

**The Holiness **- The leading figures (spiritual) of an ideal.
**The Dark Lord/Overlord** - An villainized, faction figure of an unknown, if not otherworldly foriegn race, culture, and/or civilization. Notably appropriated characteristics are the fundamental opposition in the innocents’ values, failure to understand or emphasize humanly and exercises the utmost savagery.

Thus attracts animosity, sometimes by **The Academy**, sometimes by **The Church**, sometimes by **The Modern Kingdom**. Without differences, a rational in just opposition is fabricated.
**The Nobility** - The privileged men/folks, commonly educated (with resounding reasons).
**The Mass** - The common men/folks, commonly uneducated (with resounding reasons).
**The Light** - An ambiguous faith of everything good bordering on religion and philosophy.
