The Law of Thee (LoT) is a fugitive organization that claimed itself to be both wise and righteous. However, in the eyes of the Diarcesian government, they are no different than common criminals.

One of the statements from the government read as follows:

We have heard from our sources that an organization called "The Law of Thee" has been taking action in various parts of Diarcesian space. We would like to ask all citizens for their cooperation so that we can arrest these criminals and bring them to justice. We strongly advise all citizens to refrain from associating with or supporting the activities of The Law of Thee. They have been known to cause chaos and destruction in our peaceful society.


At first glance it seems strange why this group exists; one might think its purpose is nothing but causing suffering among other things (and there's evidence pointing towards such), however not everything about LoT makes sense upon closer scrutiny; some partakers within its ranks do seem genuine enough while others may not necessarily hold malice at heart despite how their actions appear on surface level...

Nonetheless what must be done still stands: Arcana Forces operatives are ordered by their superiors as well as briefed based off available data regarding these individuals' whereabouts -- they go out into the wilder areas to search, find, capture, and return any members back alive if possible, or at least bring their remains back to Diarcesia for proper identification.


Planet Ozuno

As they wander in the wilderness of nature's domain and navigate through its mazes of trees that stood tall like guardians against intruders who dare disturb peace within this paradise; a voice echoes from deep inside them: "You have been chosen." The whispers grow louder with each step taken further away - calling upon fate itself which is entwined around all living things whether man or beast alike...

What the hell does "You have been chosen" mean? It's like some kind of cult chanting or something. I don't know what that group is planning, but that's why we're here to find out!

Manual transmission driving in Wochaystein is quite popular, as is DCT and sequential. However, automatics are also common among people who live in hilly or mountainous areas. According to the dieresis's Bureau of Statistics, 40.49% of the driving population can drive stick.

The persistence of manual transmissions can be traced to a now-repealed law requiring that all cars sold there be equipped with it. Automatic and other types were illegal to be used on public roads, but can be operated on private property. The law's basis can be traced to the societal importance and tradition of having control over one's vehicle, which has been present since horse-drawn carriages were the norm. In addition to this, many people find driving a manual more engaging and enjoyable than a non-manual.

Despite that, the stereotypes of Wochaysteiners being unable to use an automatic (or broadly-applied, electronic technologies in cars) is false. This can be attributed to a lack of exposure to them as opposed to inability.

In reality, only 10% were reported to be truly incapable.
