Liberation

It's been over one hundred years since the 'Year of Storms, ' a time when natural disasters decimated three-quarters of the world's population. The hurricanes, tornadoes, and other catastrophes were the result of centuries of environmental abuse and the unchecked reaping of Earth's natural resources.
Now, we live in a time where the difference between rich and poor is a matter of life and death. The World Council is slowly gaining ground in its battle to rebuild this world. In addition to global rationing, they've established the off-world outposts, settlements on the far-off planet of Argosa. The outposts provide the resources needed to rebuild Earth's cities and return them from the brink of devastation, and for those who chose to migrate to the outposts, they provide a means to make a better life.
Unfortunately, the greed of the rich and powerful is threatening to take it all away.
