## Resource

Faction Wars officially begins, and Chapter One wastes no time setting the tone. Carl and Donut arrive in Larracos, the City of Dreams, and are immediately confronted with rules, countdowns, and shark sushi. We break down how Faction Wars is structured, what makes this season different, and why it feels less like a competition and more like a trap. Between new class decisions, unresolved consequences from previous floors, and an AI growing increasingly comfortable pushing boundaries, it’s clear this floor will move fast—and mistakes won’t be survivable.
