Calling itself Infinity. A name you have heard before, in the first and third ever discussion with the Raconteur. This fragment of Infinity though, is not his cunning nor his fear, but rather his rage. Ad astra, per aspera, dear guest.

    The Raconteur decides it's been long enough, and shows you the tale of Earth One. A world uniquely placed to affect several others. Influences from other tales may linger, or perhaps it is the other way around. After what you know as World War One, a great plague descended on the world, but the people did anything but die out. Now the lingering remnants of the New World must contend with the secrets of the Old World, and so much more... You view the world through the eyes of Romulus Pendragon's, a man who shares quite a resemblance to Lazarus Deadman, but surely that's merely a coincidence. There is much to this world, but do not open your heart fully, this tale is a tragedy.
