The Northern Union of Patria and the Southern Confederation of Patria. They fought a long civil war, which finally came to an end when the North used a forbidden technology. They created Incarnates, beings with godlike powers, and this quickly turned the tables in the war. The Incarnates brought victory to the North and they were regarded as heroes, but their tremendous power became a double-edged sword, as it slowly made them lose their minds. Because of this, the Incarnate squad captain, Hank, swears an oath with his squad.
People who have become Incarnates will 
eventually lose not only their human forms,
Menschen, die zu Inkarnationen wurden,
sehen nicht nur wie Bestien aus,
Los que se hicieron Encarnados
no solo se ven como monstruos,
Los que os volvisteis Encarnados
no solo parecéis monstruos,
Les personnes devenues des Divins
Le persone diventate Soldati Semidivini
Pessoas que viraram Encarnados
não só parecem monstros,
Люди, что стали воплощёнными…
