The Unexplored Places - Ruin's Gate 11: Mutual Agreements
play

06/27/23 • 102 min

CONTENT WARNINGS: brief description of body horror [12:27-12:39]

Small towns on Antarres have a tendency to stay small—at least, until they don’t. The second a small town starts to grow, the process takes on a character I’d be tempted to call exponential: the moment people start to sense opportunity somewhere new, they have a tendency to go. So towns get bigger, better, and the more they do, the more people come.

It’s not always a bad thing. Big towns have their own charm, their own benefits. It’s a matter of whether or not the small town that started such a process is actually capable of handling the new influx of attention. And whether or not the people who started off there decide it’s in their best interest to stick around.

This week, on Ruin’s Gate: New faces and unpleasant surprises.

06/13/23 • 90 min

CONTENT WARNINGS: body horror (31:21-31:55, 45:34-46:06, 56:55-56:57, 1:01:37-1:02:06, 1:03:46-1:04:17), graphic violence (50:39-51:08, 1:03:46-1:04:17), discussion of mercy killing (55:25-56:57)

(13)And lo! the Angel said unto him, you Shall be henceforth known as Genesis, and you Shall be My Prophet, and I Shall show you a Great and Beautiful Promise. (14)And the Stone before his eyes did part and reveal unto him that Great and Beautiful Promise, that Genesis would deliver His message unto all he met, that beneath the Stone did lie a land of plenty. (15)And, leaving the mines, Genesis made his way to the nearest town and on that ground did build a Church, the First Church of the Order of the Righteous Apostles, where he spread the word of his Revelation and where he took the name Confessor, after the Angel’s commands.

(1)And the Angel did teach him how to withstand the forces of the Burning Beyond, and how to turn back its Demons, with prayer, and with song, and with the power of the Stone, and thus was the first Confessor Genesis transformed.

This week, on Ruin’s Gate: Blessed are the merciful, for they shall be shown mercy.

CONTENT WARNINGS: detailed description of body horror [1:01:08-1:01:52, 1:18:34-1:21:13, 1:26:34-1:26:50]

Faith has been important to the people of Antarres since they first set foot on the rocky red earth of their new home. Faith of all kinds—first, the abstract kind of faith, faith that they had what it took to survive the harsh environment of this new planet, that they would find something here to make it worth the trip. And then faith of a more concrete sort, as a humble preacher from one of the first ships followed a voice out into the Ruin and came back with a message from God.

This week, on Ruin’s Gate: Cutting off danger at the pass.

[ MESSAGE FOUND ON PERSONAL TERMINAL OF ABSOLUTE ELYX, DATED SHORTLY AFTER THE DEPARTURE OF CASH BLACK FROM THE ELECTORATE, INC. ]

I’d keep my head down if I were you, in all honesty. You’re going to end up taking the fall one way or another—the lower you get before it happens, the less the impact will hurt.

Climb your way back up when the heat is off. For now: just survive the blast.
