Execution:
(When she first meets the players:)
"When the Enlightened Monarch realised that the World was not compatible with his vision of endless growth and profit, he took drastic measures."
"If the world was too irrational to comply with the Age of Reason, then it too should be punished, erased and re-made."
"And so he imprisoned the future at the center of the Earth, and drove gigantic towers into it. In these towers, everyone who has already proven themselves to fit the Age of Reason, would take shelter. "
"Those who were refused, should waste away under the unrelenting Light of a permanent Day, until nothing was left."
"Then the Enlightened would re-emerge, and create a world in their image."
"To prevent the Slow death of everything, the Future needs to belong to everyone, and the Age of Reason must end for good."
"If you want to help me, descent down into Virtue's Heaven, fight those who proclaim to own this world's Future."
"And bring me their hearts."
