( CRIME & CORRUPTION )

We got too many gangsters doing dirty deeds.
We've got too much corruption, too much crime in the streets.
It's time the long arm of the law put a few more in the ground.
Send 'em all to their maker and he'll settle 'em down.

In a land unknown to the humans there is a town called Truslinia. Although at first glance the city may look like an old human habit that was left to grind into the dust, it was never touched by human hands. Buildings old and broken rise from the dust, but it is felines that inhabit them. Felines that know nothing except for pain and death. Felines that wish for a brighter future where they are not tainted by the plague of death. Felines that see a future, but cannot grasp it. They are chained to their lowly lives by a set of suppressors that rule the city. Not even justice reigns strongly to them. They are nothing but weak, starving felines with a hope, with a wish, with a desire to be something more, but never will be. They will hardly see the light, and yet they gaze at their suppressors, hoping that one day they will be freed of these chains.

She broke his heart he spent his whole life tryin' to forget.
We watched him drink his pain away a little at a time.
But he never could get drunk enough to get her off his mind.
Until the night...

Living high above the starving felines of Truslinia, there lives three Houses of Royalty. They are known as the House of Raliette, the House of Fahrin, and the House of Drestine. The House of Raliette is the oldest of them all, and they hold the power. Where the Head of Raliette is concerned, he dictates the laws of the city, who is to be arrested, who is to be killed, and how corrupted the police force can be. Since the time of Adoltran, the city has been nothing but corrupted. They are the ones that have devastated Truslinia and has caused so much suffering and death...to some, they are even at the heart of it all. Then there is the House of Fahrin. They were created to rival the power of Raliette and rival they do, but they hold no ambition to grow to become the ruling house. They are more concerned with family and honor than they are of power and pride. Cats looked to them for hope, only to be sadly disappointed. But then, came another house, one that they have new hopes for. The House of Drestine.

We found him with his face down in the pillow
With a note that said I'll love her till I die.
And when we buried him beneath the willow
The angels sang a whiskey lullaby.

Created with two gods instead of one as was the case of the two other houses, the House of Drestine holds the ambition of Raliette, but with the honor of Fahrin. A mixture of the other two houses, they hold an even greater hope for succession than Fahrin ever had. But they are young, they are inexperienced, and not every feline of Truslinia believes in them. Revolution is in the future for these felines but as far as they are aware, it could be many more generations into the future - surely not in their lifetimes. The days pass and nothing is happening. The darkness blurs the lines between good and evil. Crime and corruption plague the streets and no one knows quite what to do with themselves. Face death by the claws of a killer, starvation, or just end it themselves? And what of love? Can something so beautiful ever exist in this sort of place? These are some of the many questions that plague the minds of the citizens. They fight to survive...but what will you do to survive?
