PROLOGUE SUMMARY

Centricide ends with the nuke that destroys Accelerationism. The explosion destroys the walls of the compass, which were built after Realistic Realists banished Grej and all Off-Compass ideologies as too dangerous. 

Turns out Grej was watching the Centricide this entire time, and has been getting more powerful since being forced off the compass. He was inspired by Jreg and the Centricide movement and is taking advantage of the fact that the barriers are now broken. The last Centrist alive is Moderate Lee, and his Overton Window that he carried around is now a MacGuffin. Whoever has the Overton Window at the center of the compass can shape the ideology of the world into their view. The Realists are forced to come down again and help repair the walls while also keeping Modlee safe. 

The Realists demand that the Extremists demand the other ideologies to stay indoors, as true impossible ideology monsters (not the ones that they fought in the Centricire finale) are much more dangerous. (This also gives a reason why the Extremists are no longer important to the story, as the original Realicide never addressed why they stopped mattering)

Grej’s team is 4 separate off-compass ideologies, Ingsoc, Darwinism, Communalism, and Egoism. He scouts them separately and says that he can help them make it to the center. He chooses 4 vastly different people to increase his chances of winning, either way, he plans on betraying whoever gets there first.

As the Antirealists go on their quest to the center, Orwellian questions his place in the Realists and more importantly, if what they’ve been teaching him about their past is true

More redesigns do exist, but these are the characters that can’t be swapped out with anybody else. I might throw around a few other legacy characters, but they would be treated more as Easter Eggs than actual characters. Relevant characters take priority

I’d say that the actual outline of the story is about to start the third act now. I have the story written down, and I know HOW I want the story to end, but I still need to have a good translation between the second act’s climax and resolution.
