With the annihilation of the Imperial
Army, the Empire was all but doomed.
However, the Empire managed to regain
its strength with the assistance in
the form of military conscripts from
a neighboring island state.
The islands were populated with
a people whose cultures practiced
primitive religions that focused mainly on
war and conflict, thus providing a quick
source of strength to the waning
power of the Empire.
The archipelago state had long lost
contact with the Continent, but due to
questions regarding the proper
succession of the throne, the heirs of
the recently deceased king began to feud
amongst themselves.
The feud soon turned into civil war,
and many of the people fled the islands
to the Continent, in search of new
homes.
The Empire was quick to seize
the opportunity.
The Empire was without an army, and
the islanders were without leaders.
At that point, an alliance seemed to be
the only logical solution.
An interesting side effect of the sudden
influx of this new island culture was
the effect it had on industrial design in
the "new" Empire.
The dramatic styles of colors of
the island people quickly permeated
Imperial culture, and soon their cultural
influences could be found everywhere.
Yet, there were still fundamentalists,
who still served in their hearts
the deceased Seventh Emperor,
within the Academy that shunned these
new styles.
Their influence was strong enough
that laws were passed restricting some
design influences, and some laws went
as far as prohibiting island folk music from
being played in the Capital at nighttime.
However, such absurd laws had no effect
on the Capital Commercial District,
as well as the Slums
The clamorous sounds of the native
instruments could be heard filling
the streets with their lovely sound,
and people could buy wild and colorful
baubles to decorate their homes,
day and night.
