In the ruins of a once great city, the people eke out a tired existence amongst the fallen grandeur and sand dunes. The elderly tell their grandchildren of the days of Gilgamesh, when the streets were as gold and wealth flowed through Nippur like water through a river. There is history and pride in this land, and though it is not what it once was, the shadow of its greatness remains.
But, soon, even this shadow will be wiped out. A group of ruffians make their way to once mighty Nippur, bent on razing it to the ground and rebuilding it as a gaudy mockery. They would wipe its history, leaving us with nothing more than the memories of what once was.
We cannot allow this, friends. We must preserve this historic site and protect it from those who value "progress" over our past. Though in ruins, there's yet much to be gained from Gilgamesh's kingdom. Knowledge. Compassion. And perhaps most importantly, independence for the inhabitants. Join me in defending Nippur from those who want no more than a trophy to hang from their belt. Let's restore the city in the right way, leaving the history and bringing back what made it great instead of replacing it all with a shiny new affront to the senses.
So, who will stand with me? Who will takes arms in defense of the people on Nippur? Who will join the Nippur War II?
