Rites of Accord
SteamAbout Rites of Accord
The old world burned. What rose chose a different way to fight. The bloodshed isn't real. The stakes are.
The powers of capital clung to walled enclaves and private armies, but were overcome by communal movements with nothing left to lose. From the wreckage came new societies—communes and tribes rebuilt around ecosystems, each shaped by the biome they call home.
When conflict returned, no one wanted another war. The world’s factions convened and built the Rites—ritualized contests fought in digital arenas before a watching world. Skill and strategy replace mass destruction. Outcomes settle disputes, redraw agreements, and keep the balance without burning the world again.
