From: January Leading Anti-Liberationists, January Leading a Radical Prehistoricist City or January Leading a Radical Emancipationist City


You prefer the city [Alignment]. You also prefer January, a staunch and overt Liberationist, to lead it. The inherent contradiction is part of the appeal.

Game Instructions: If you fail, the city will make its own choice, which might mean a change of ideology or might mean a change of leadership.

Success

Rumours counteracted

You question and contradict what is said against January [...] You remind people of their leader's strengths [...] Wouldn't they rather have someone who stands for something than someone who stands for nothing? As for her doctrines, they are only misunderstood.

[...]


Failure

January is expelled

You try to take a hand, but your intervention is not appreciated. The Tracklayers argue amongst themselves, at considerable length. The end of it is that they remove January from office and appoint someone else.

Description summary:

Alternative Failure

January is compelling

[...]

Her position is difficult [...] But she is an expert in changing minds [...] It's true that people do not speak of the dark, or of Liberation [...]

Instead they talk of [...] the overthrow of time: a more esoteric doctrine, [...] but it too leads back to Liberation in the end.
