“In Judgment you will be faced with moral dilemmas and decide whether to abandon your morals to achieve your goal. Will you sacrifice the one for the many? Will you use the dark arts? At what cost? Your decisions will tip the Scales of Judgment and will determine what happens when the final day arrives… Will mankind survive? Will their humanity?”
