# Backstory The *shadow government* turned out to be the brotherhood of the legion. They were a group of people who believed that they were better than everyone else and that they deserved to rule the world. They had been planning to take over the world for years, and they finally succeeded in 2033. The brotherhood was made up of some of the most powerful people in the world, including government officials, business leaders… The *Legion* was renowned for their *trans-humanoid* army; therefore, the order called them reversed serpents. They were feared throughout the land, and rightly so. For their inhuman strength and agility, they were unstoppable on the battlefield. No one could stand against them. But there was one thing that even they feared: death. It stalked them like a hunter at night, waiting to claim its next victim. And yet, they continued to fight, knowing that death was always lurking nearby. One day, they received a new order from their Emperor: to march on a small village and destroy it. The people of the village had done nothing wrong, but the king wanted them gone. The Legion marched on the village and destroyed it completely. Not a single person survived. And as they marched back home, death followed close behind them, claiming the lives of many legionnaires. But even in death, they were still feared. No one could stand against the might of the Legion. But little did they know that their days were numbered. A new force was rising in the shadows, waiting to strike at the heart of the Legion. They were the resistance, and they were going to make the Legion pay for all the lives they had taken. The opposition was made up of people from all walks of life, united they called themselves outlaws. They were farmers, blacksmiths, soldiers, and more. They were united by one common goal: to take down the Legion and free the world. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
