Success

Regnant

The script revolves around authority; who can wield it, and who is subject to it. Who rides it, and who is crushed beneath its feet. By hook and crook – by death and dialogue – you seize control of the machinery of state.

Failure

Overlooked

It is not your hand on the tiller. It is not your voice behind the Laws. It is not your hand around the knife, nor your teeth leading the hunger.

The machinery of state grinds into motion, with you still stuck in the gears.
