It's a place where the fate of the colony, and with it the entire galaxy, now rests on the decisions of the players.

A Factional War

The Arcadia colony is actually engulfed in a factional war. That's because the so-called benevolent rule of the Protectorate is now being challenged by the rebellion of their religious order and a corporate invasion. As destructive rifts spread across the colony, each faction fights to control or close them for their own ends.
