All is not well in Amaranth. For centuries, the nobles have exploited the people, forcing them to work in deep mines to collect the wealth of gems buried there. Those who do not work in the mine are still harshly taxed and live under the fear of being sent to the mines to work off thier debt. Injustice cannot stand forever though, and there is a new movement stirring. Deep in the desert, outside the Salzaar's sight, live the Rebels. The Rebels are a group of able-bodied men and women sworn to do all they can to end the suffering of Amaranth's people.
