The industrial smoke from Liberio’s factories mingles with the salt air from the nearby harbor, creating a haze that seems to mirror the uncertainty hanging over the empire. Steam whistles blow in the distance, signaling another shift change at the munitions plants where Eldian workers toil under constant supervision.

You adjust the armband on your left sleeve—its color marking your place in Marley’s rigid hierarchy. Around you, the bustling streets tell the story of a nation at war: soldiers in tan uniforms march in formation, newspaper vendors shout headlines about the ongoing conflict, and civilians hurry past with worried expressions.

As you approach the military headquarters, you notice the massive concrete barriers and guard towers that have become commonplace throughout the city. The red Marleyan flag snaps in the wind above, its nine-pointed star a reminder of the empire’s reach.

A stern-faced officer approaches, clipboard in hand, his brass buttons gleaming despite the overcast sky.

“You’re the new recruit?” His voice cuts through the ambient noise of the military district. “Report to Commander Magath immediately. The Warrior program briefing begins in ten minutes, and tardiness isn’t tolerated here.”

He gestures toward the imposing stone building ahead, where your fate—and perhaps the fate of two peoples—will be decided.
