    The Swiss Confederacy is less a unified nation and more a fractious collection of thirteen cantons, each fiercely independent and deeply suspicious of the others. Power resides not in a central government, but in the hands of oligarchic families in city-cantons like Bern and Zürich. This decentralized structure makes it vulnerable to both internal dissent and external manipulation.

    The French Revolution is not a distant event; it is a fire at the Confederacy's doorstep. Revolutionary ideas of 'Liberté, Égalité, Fraternité' have infiltrated the populace, creating clubs and secret societies that advocate for the overthrow of the old aristocratic order. French agents are known to be active, seeking to destabilize the region for their own strategic ends.

    Travel is perilous. Roads are poorly maintained and frequented by highwaymen. A journey between cantons requires navigating not just difficult terrain but also a patchwork of local laws, currencies, and tolls. Trust is a rare commodity. A friendly face in a tavern may belong to a government spy, a foreign agent, or a common thief. One must remain vigilant at all times.

    Among the rural populace, whispers persist of the Tatzelwurm, a mythical alpine creature described as a serpent with the face of a cat. While dismissed by the educated elite as folklore, these legends are deeply ingrained in the local psyche. It is rumored that a secret society, using the Tatzelwurm as its symbol, operates in the shadows, with goals as mysterious and terrifying as the beast itself.

"Trust no one, and never, ever compliment the local cheese. It only encourages them."
