[ Everything fades to black...and you awaken in a manor.

You're wearing bloodstained (but fancy!) versions of your uniforms, and a newspaper informs you that you are currently in %COUNTRYNAME% in the year %CONTEMPORARY%+1. The newspaper is otherwise actually fairly unhelpful, aside from something detailing the results of a recent attempt at revolt in a city in %COUNTRYNAME%: worker’s success at managing a nearby gold mine led to dreams of every man being a king - the revolutionaries may have been successful had it not been for a concurrent jailbreak and mass slaughter putting local authorities on alert, buying time for military intervention - the town was nearly leveled to the ground, with few survivors.

But you seem to remember - you survived, didn’t you? In fact, you were one of the rioters.

...Also, below the main headline about the failed revolution, there's something about Those Who Crave Hands? Huh.

Anyways, you've got marketing to do! ]

To give you an idea of how badly this can go: we nearly starved to death--some of us twice the last time.

We had to figure out how to survive in a time era not too unlike the one I'm from. Starting from working in the mines...

[THERE IS NOTHING WRONG. EVERYTHING IS FINE. YOU HEARD NOTHING.]

At least we're not starting in coal mines again.

Yes we seem to be the blood-spattered elite now.
