Kane (Leader of Nod) was presumed dead after the final battle of Nod's first comprehensive bid for global domination. Though Nod was effectivly disbanded and GDI claimed total victory, Kane's body was never recovered. Kane's followers continued to hold vigils in the belief that their leader would someday return.
During the decades following his disappearance, Kane sightings became common myth, especially prevalent amongst regions surrounding former nod strong holds. After a series of GDI investigations, the case was officaly declared dead - and a disenfranchised Nod became scattered into diffrent fractions.
Now Kane has returned and GDI and Nod are fighting once again for our planet.
