In an unnamed future, the world is united, equal, and safe all thanks to the efforts of the Nine and their global Government. That's not how Jax, a lowly mill worker, sees it though. In a shocking discovery of illegal, historical documents, his eyes are opened to the possibilities that the old world yielded as he looks upon the smoldering ruins of what his home has become in Area Thirty-Eight. Finding the Raiders, a small band of resistance fighters, Jax begins the fight to restore the values he reads about given to him from a long-lost patriot. The year is 2036, and society is ideologically and culturally lost-the United States of America is in a Cold Civil War and on the verge of collapse. Due to the efforts of an underground radical political organization known as The Ordean Reich, young veteran Mica Rouge takes matters into his own hands, joining an off the books intelligence agency-The Minuteman Division-in an effort to inspire the forgotten American ideals that he has fought for before. In their fight, they discover the Reich's plan to instill the Nine and abolish the country he has bled for. Will it be enough? In the debut of this new American-dystopian saga, follow the past and present as the fates of both Jax and Mica are intertwined in a war across time, for the Nine-they are only the beginning.
