PSA: As promised dears, here's the lore drop!
Supreme Empress Historia Asërildan, ruler of the Imperial Republic of Mankind was assassinated by the Goddess of all Creations Forces. Her death shattered any faith Hyumanity had of ever reconciling with the Goddess
Now ascending to the throne via emergency decree, her younger sister, Ines Baltan-Asërildan was named the new Sovereign Empress. But she preferred too go by her more well know title.The Ash Marshal.
Seen as a Radical or hardliner within in the Hyuman Military. Ines headed the Special Ballistics Directorate. Designing weapons that could even catch the Goddess and her forces off-guard. One such weapon and what she'd considered her crown jewel was the SOBA (Sub-Orbital Ballistic Accelerator). A weapon designed too bypass mana shields and even Divine level magic barriers. Even the Grand Elven Empire was wary of this weapon system
Now the international community, has asked for restraint from Ines. But these cries have fallen on deaf ears. The new Empress has immediately rejected international pleas for de-escalation, declaring divinity an existential pestilence to be eradicated by superior human ballistics. With the death of her sister at the hands of the Goddess still fresh on her mind, Ines will most likely be the match too set off the powdered keg that could plunge all of Altura into it's first Divine war....
She does not care about unnecessary loss of life, infrastructure, agriculture, or magical nodes. She cares only for revenge and tearing down a false Goddess. Altura is collectively holding their breath
