In ancient times, the races of Chrysalis enjoyed lives of luxury in a world where science and magic harmoniously coexisted. The Pom, a race whose inquisitive minds and nimble fingers gave them a natural inclination for engineering, created many useful machines. The most industrious of the Pom were the Maestros, the keepers of technology. Their most important discovery was how to gather, store, and utilize a powerful resource known as “Neo Steam.” Once the secrets of Neo Steam had been unlocked, the world entered a golden age of technology and learning.

However, the King feared the Maestros would one day use their inventions to overthrow him, so he banished them all to a remote island. There, they continued their research until one fateful day came when a great earthquake struck Chrysalis. The land was torn apart, shattered into three main continents. Cities were ruined, centers of knowledge and culture crumbled, and civilization spiraled into a darker age...

In the centuries that followed, three nations arose on the new continents: the Kingdom of Elerd, the Republic of Rogwel, and the Taxn Alliance. Each struggled with limited resources and tried desperately to rebuild their societies. But it was not long before the machines of old began being unearthed. When the new generations rediscovered the power of Neo Steam and the ancient Maestros’ inventions, conflict broke out between the nations. Although the Taxns tried to remain neutral and not rely on these new discoveries, even they too got caught up in the massive war between Elerd and Rogwel. Soon, the entire world would be up in arms, and citizens of all nations would find themselves spilling the blood of their brethren all over the chance to gain control of the most powerful resource in the land... Neo Steam.
