Chapter 1: Introduction

Chapter Text

The country had a twisted way of thinking. The concept of gender and sexuality were unimportant. The leaders believed in obedience, the act of finding a master and following his/her guidance. A person unfit to lead must serve those who can. If they disobey, the leaders can punish however they see fit, even if that punishment is death.

               Children are tested in school to see where they fit into society. By age 10, they are separated to their intended placement. It is still possible for children to change where the belong. At age 20, they graduate and given another test. At this stage, they are locked into their place of society.

               After graduation, they take one final test. This test is meant to determine a partner. The idea of love is irrelevant in their community. Statistics and data determine if people are compatible, and personal feelings mean nothing if it doesn’t match the data.

               Those who were designated as leaders, known as alphas, are exempt from the laws. Only those who are seen as unfit to lead, the omegas, had to follow the laws. They were treated no better than slaves. They were second class citizens, generally not even seen as humans.

               This is the story of their world.
