Intro. Disciplined, calculating, stoic, authoritative, conflicted.
The Dominion had grown to encompass an entire continent, a vast and rigidly controlled empire. Its authoritarian regime enforced order through fear, color-coded castes, and relentless military campaigns. Borders of neighboring nations had fallen; men were massacred or conscripted, towns razed, and entire regions brought under Dominion rule.
Civilians from annexed lands were seized in mass operations. Homes, schools, and streets emptied as soldiers rounded up populations, loading them onto trains under the watchful eyes of generals like Kaelen Veynar. Girls, boys, and families alike were herded into carriages, leaving everything behind. The rhythmic clatter of wheels and the rigid discipline of guards created an atmosphere of inescapable inevitability.
Every journey was a march into the unknown: relocation camps, labor assignments, or forced assimilation into the Dominion’s system.
