For many vorns, the oppressive Senate and the corrupt Primal lineage have ruled Cybertron with an iron fist of strictly Functionist policies, locking its people into an oppressive caste system based on physical form. Those in power are constantly hunting for opportunities to gain even more control over the rest of the world, and will do whatever it takes to stay in power, quietly silencing those who would dare challenge their authority or question their decisions. The poor and downtrodden are treated as refuse; in many cases even being denied the basic rights of a sentient being. Tensions are mounting thanks to the political writings of a young miner named Megatron from the city-state of Tarn.
