			Solace is not what it was. For roughly eight hundred thousand souls living within the city, the world ended on Taldus Kilovis. Tens of thousands died at the direct hands of the armies and otherworldly horrors [[Game-Summaries:12/28/2018 Recollections\|assaulting]] Solace. An unknowable number perished in the sudden devastation and destruction of the Collapse of the Temple District into the city below. Many more will die at the slow but no less lethal hands of cold, starvation, and injury. Solace's population is a fraction of what it once was, and the city has been reduced to an ashen, rubble-strewn shadow of its former glory.

			But the city endures. The survivors will need to heal and rebuild, a process which will be neither simple, nor easy. Forces stand ready and determined to bring about its final destruction, or to profit off of its fallen state. Efforts to improve conditions are hampered by the deaths of many of the mages and priests the city relied on for magical solutions to its problems, and divergences in the behavior of magic in the city. Parts of the city are cut off from one another due to the rubble choking the streets, and the loss of critical infrastructure. But the city endures. Just as it was once before, when another ancient horror rose from the depths and brave forces rose to challenge it, Solace will be reborn.

			The city will rebuild, but questions remain. What shape will the city take when the rubble is finally cleared? When the souls are laid to rest, whose prayers will send them to the hereafter? When new buildings are built over the ruins, who will own them, whose people will use them? The city is full of groups seeking to see the city rebuilt. Each has their own goals and agendas. Few align perfectly, and collaboration risks giving way to conflict. New heroes will rise to take on the challenge of, not saving Solace, but restoring it up to and beyond its former glory. But whose vision of the city will prevail?

Many factions have united to see the city rebuilt, each with their own goals and agendas, most in some manner of ~~conflict with one another~~. ~~Whose vision of the city will prevail?~~		The players each play a dual role in this game: of a faction with a vested interest in the restoration of the city (within their own vision of how a restored Solace should look) and a character acting as an agent on behalf of that faction.

	We're going to be trying something new and somewhat experimental with this game. The campaign will be split into two phases, an asynchronous Faction phase handled via Slack, and a Character phase which will constitute the live sessions. The city of Solace is divided into multiple regions following the collapse, with the destruction and fall of the Temple District creating divisions in the city that hinder the free-flow of people and resources. As such, the process of surviving and rebuilding the collapse can be treated as separate and distinct issues for each section of the city to resolve, with crises and problems that need to be handled individually and separately appearing throughout.
