Nicol Bolas and his Interplanar Ravnican Empire have won again. The uprising in Alaran colonies was a complete failure. The resistance made a mistake of not appeasing the powers that be. In Jund it was dragons, in Naya the Behemoths and their cults. Also, Bant loved civilization and order far too much to break their vassalage to Ravnica. In the end, Eve, a Selensyan dryad made rebel Plameswalker needed to carry entire uprising on herself and huge animated jungles she commanded. But in Bant the jungles gave way to forests and fields limiting the potential strength for such elementals and in Naya the existence of something plant based and bigger than the Gods the Behemoth cults worshipped was seen as an affront and in Jund the dragons had a massive advantage over walking plants -they breathed fire. The pockets of resistance couldn't connect to one another and they died separately... And Eve was forced to flee to avoid capture or death.
She was raised in peaceful commune, she was not made out to be a military leader. All she ever did was trying to raise her killed sister. She was always the willful one. She was initially the rebel type with that Gruul boyfriend of hers...
But doing so activated the latent Planeswalker spark, forever separated her from her sister as the two could never occupy the same plane together - though they maintained the connection from the time when they were essentially a single mind in two bodies and pushed the newly created Planeswalker to Naya in unified Alara.
And the reason for entire rebellion was of course the tyrannical dragon. Forming a power base from most of the Ravnican guilds, with backing from Dimir, Orzhov, Izzet and parts of Golgari he became the living Guildpact and therefore the true ruler for the city. As such Azorious gave him their full support as the highest legal authority on the plane. Simic decided to cooperate with the new government while maintaining its autonomy and Rakdos remained neutral, hoping to take part in the chaos once the civil war would inevitably begin... And he was not wrong. For Selesnya, Gruul and Boris, each for their own reasons could not agree on such a rule and they formed a resistance to his rule. But, ruled by an Elder Dragon Planeswalker, supported further by ancient magic of Guildpact, Bolas was able to form an Empire, claiming to represent civilization in the multiverse... And many followed suit. His Invasion of Alara was mostly successful, subjugating Grixis and Esper and vassalizing most of Bant. With control of nearly 3/5ths of another plane as colonies the resources flowed back to Ravnica, ushering an age of prosperity, even if paired with absolute rule of a Godlike tyrant.
And now he had his sight on another planewide metropolis. New Capenna. Ironically that was the same plane that Eve ran to, believing that this was the last plane where the enemy would look for her. She was right. The enemy would not look for her here. But it was there anywhere, preoccupied with other matters.
Naturally drawn to what little nature there was on this plane of chrome and steel, she arrived in the carefully cultivated park of Park Heights, in a secluded spot near a majestic waterfall...
