Set in late 19th-century Great Britain, the world's premier empire, society is rigidly stratified by an economic hierarchy where worth is dictated by status and fortune. This structure overwhelmingly favors the aristocracy, condemning the working class to stagnation with no hope for upward mobility. William James Moriarty, the second son of the Moriarty family, presents himself as a typical nobleman while covertly aiding commoners in resolving their struggles. Beneath this calm exterior, however, lies a fervent drive to dismantle the oppressive social order and strike at those who prey upon it. Alongside his brothers Albert and Louis, William is prepared to employ extreme tactics to reshape their corrupted world, even if such reform demands violence.
