There once existed a land in which all rulers were content. True they fought for land and honour as all leaders do, but none ever contemplated leaving their paradise for the unknown beyond.
But contentment cannot last forever, and some began to question the leadership of the all-powerful overlord. Though revered for bringing an end to chaos and creating this elysian land, even his most devoted followers began to question many of his decisions.
Soon the strongest leaders began to consider leaving to form new kingdoms outside of paradise. Eventually all the strong leaders would go, leaving behind only the overlord and his band of sycophants, and those too weak to survive without his protection.
The strongest leader of them all would go on to found a new, antithetical paradise. A paradise in which the weak would be slain rather than protected. A paradise in which the strong were not penalized for their success. A truly dystopian paradise.
And thus Dystopia was born.
