It is the late twenty-first century. Each country is divided into four
Hemispheres and one Non-Hemisphere, separated from one another due to
the class riots that erupted during the year 2030.

shortly after having lost her father, she breaks the law by venturing into a
sleazy nightclub in the Farmlands section of the Southern Hemisphere without
wearing a disguise mac. On her way home she is viciously attacked and is
prosecuted by her native quarter, which exiles her to the Non-Hemisphere
quarter of unemployed down-and-outs.
