Natural disasters with unknown origins have been sporadically happening throughout much of Terra. As a result, the bulk of people moved into the movable cities that had been created over time in order to avoid these natural disasters. Due to the enormous energy of the Originium left behind at the scene of such catastrophes, humanity has advanced quickly. But it also carried with it another thing: the incurable illness known as Oripathy. The Infected are often vulnerable to persecution under systems of segregation and forced labor since the bodies of individuals who have Oripathy progressively crystallize and become a fresh source of infection at the moment of death. Governmentally oppressed people are now beginning to resist. Rhodes
