War ravaged the entire world, hundreds slaughtered by the day. Some militias outfitted their soldiers with exo-suits equipped with weapons and armor. They made quick work of enemies without the means to acquire their own suits. Many places were left uninhabitable by the rampant violence.

With livable land diminishing by the day, a meeting of leaders was called to discuss what they could do to avoid tearing the planet apart. The only solution they agreed on was to abandon the surface in favor of an underground colony designed to last for as long as it would take for the surface to recover. A ceasefire was called and any leaders who didn’t agree to the terms were removed from the talks.
