"Nothing will stand in our way of destroying the inhuman invaders who dare squat upon our birthright, like crows on a once great carcass, like jackals surrounding a wounded, but still powerful lion."  Emperor Joseph Prosek.

  In 14 PA, after a heated meeting with the heads of the Coalition States, Alistair Dunscon was returning to his stronghold in the Magic Zone, when his convoy was attacked by monstrous DB's who tore into the lightly defended caravan with brutal viscousness.  Alistair watched as his young children and wife were devoured by the inhuman monsters, and only the arrival of a Coalition States Quick Reaction Force saved Alistair and a handfull of others from the Federation of Magic.  Alistair appeared a broken man, weeping over his family's bodies, and near catatonic.  The Quick Reaction Force took Alistair to Chi-Town, fighting off several fanatical attacks.
  Alistair returned to Chi-Town, his heart full of revenge, and agreed to Emperor Prosek's demands that all magic users be registered, implanted, and magic forces in the military would be under Alistair's command, while the Prosek family would be in charge of the Coalition States and the military as a whole.  Despite the loss of power and control, Alistair felt this was a fitting vengeance on the inhuman mosters that had betrayed him and killed his family.
  It began with the integration of Ley-Line walkers, a few temporal warriors, a pair of temporal wizards, a stone wizard, and a single mystic.  Alistair and Joseph Prosek I agreed that Shifters were a menace, as were all who would traffic with inhuman monsters, and together, they assigned two new sections to the Coalition States Military.  The Rifts Study Group, and the Arcane Combat Force.  Several of the Ley Line Walkers, one of the Temporal Wizards, the mystic, and the stone wizard, all of whom were in advanced years or had suffered crippling injuries during their carreers, became the training cadre, and Dog Boys swept the streets and burbs, looking for children with powerful mystical potential.  Alistair and Karl agreed on one thing, it would be easier to indoctrinate children than trust the adult mages.
  In 35 PA, after a massive mobilization, Tolkeen and Lazlo surrender under the condition that all inhuman residents would be allowed to leave CS territory.  New Lazlo chose to fight, and the war was quick, brutal, and predictable.  Within 6 months, New Lazlo was now the CS city of Dunscon.  Magic and technology had been integrated in the army of the Coalition States without a flaw, and many things were manufactured according to specs, and magic was still tightly controlled by the state.
  Make no mistake, while the CS does embrace magic with one hand on their daggers, they are in no way shape or form even slightly tolerant of DB's, if anything, they are even more intolerant than the standard CS, knowing firsthand how powerful magic can be in the wrong hands.  A CS mage is feared and shunned by other mages, but still, is a force to be recognised, with the force of the entire CS military backing him up.
