The Illuminati is an Elite Organisation of world leaders, Business Authorities, Innovators, Artists, and other influencial group of people on this planet. Over the years, the Order has become a popular topic for movies, novels, websites, and even video games. From the Great Depression, which was ultimately necessary, to world wars. In many people's minds, the Order's idea ties in with the New World Order, a current political idea about a one-world government, religion, and financial system. The New World Order is the outward goal and The Illuminati are the secret power working behind the scenes to achieve it. This tells their reign of terror from a different point of view. After they won against the myCast Defense Force, the world is not the same, as they have taken over half of myCast. But there are a number of survivors who tried to fight back against them.
