Welcome to the Storm of the World.
Before the Fall.The world began and aged much like others in the cosmos. One thing that may shock you is what society considered myths and legends are in fact real. Dragons, monsters, heroes, villains, and magic all existed through the ages of man, hidden from the masses of course, but shaping the very direction of history. Due mostly to powerful beings, immortals, and other forces, civilization had advanced to a level that solar system space travel was common. The rocky inner planets could be reached within a matter of weeks. Travel to the gas giants took several months but rumors of massive ships and unusual phenomenon kept the expeditions small.
The Fall.
From below and above a calamity struck the planet. Mighty forests sprung up destroying towns and cities. Spaceships fell from the sky creating vast wastelands. Mighty dragons rose from the mountains feeding and setting fire creating massive ruins. Humans retreated to the remaining cities, only a handful across the entire planet survived the calamities. The myths and legends of old were no longer hiding but running rampant and in great numbers. The cities erected massive walls keeping out the horrors that were emerging from the wilds. Giant creatures could be seen walking among the mountains. The sky once full of planes, now deadly predators hunting their next meal.

After the Fall.
The cities became city-states. Forming their own governments and militaries to defend what was left of civilization. A world organization known as the Knight Corps was created. Massive caravans traverse the wilds connecting the various city-states, protected by the Knights. Still, any travel is rife with peril. The cities are the only beacons left in a violent world. Their Heroes the only break in the storm.
