I dunno if anybody's asked this already or if there's a giant City FAQ somewhere that I've been missing or something, but here goes. Anybody here remember the City when you went home?

How much of it sticks around?

You busy today? I kinda wanted to run something by you.

I dunno, I figured if they were fighting anything it'd be bigger than sheep! Though I guess they must've been pretty strong if they needed people to clear 'em out.

[negativegate]

It was probably just the sheer number of them. And it wasn't just the sheep--there was some weirdo on the network talking about them like they were hers, and the deities didn't seem too happy about it.

... it's kinda like they try to keep the whole place stable, huh.

[negativegate]

Stable? That might be a way to look at it.

...A while back, a bunch of people here were killed. Supposedly, they were picked as sacrifices to pay some kind of price. A price to keep this place as it is, maybe?

[errandry]

... I remember that—the deities kinda looked like they were controlling it, though. Didn't they? Or at least that new guy was!

[negativegate]

So you remember the train? Yeah, I thought they were behind that, too.

I hate that they never explained just what it was for.
