Success
Managing the city
Don't call it law. Call it arbitration. You make Your Lackey watch your methods, and encourage him to study how you make decisions. He is not a natural student, but perhaps with enough time he will be able to put a few disagreements to rest.

Description summary:
The description varies based on the level of Tracklayers' Displeasure.
![]() | Description |
---|---|
1 | What you see here is not so different from what you might see on a sleepier street in London. People go about their business; occasionally there is a Rubbery man or someone more notable. But you see no sign of significant unrest. |
2 | Sometimes, you feel watched. Perhaps someone on this street knows who you are [...] But no one says anything [...] For the most part, the citizens are going about their business, and neither you nor the Great Hellbound Railway are particularly important to them. |
3 | There is graffiti on the walls out here. "Down with the GHR." "Stop importing Rubberies!" "Don't bring Hell any Closer than it already Is!" "Burn the Landlords." |
4 | There is an attitude of open hostility on the street. The placards [...] of the Great Hellbound Railway have been defaced [...]
A woman on the corner is begging for coin. "It's in good hands," she assures everyone [...] "I'm going to use it to bring the b____s down." |
5 | Protesters mob the gates. "Hinterland Scrip is Unlawful," says one placard. "This land doesn't belong to any Ministries and it can't be given out by them." |
6 | Two protestors have chained themselves [...] while a third is giving a speech [...] "The Lords are no different from Masters, now," she is shouting – inaccurately, but to a very receptive crowd.
[...] you see the speaker's eyes. [...] they look yellow. And a little amused. |
7+ | This was a protest. It has become something closer to a riot. The population wants to be rid of London companies and London Constables. They want this very much, and they are communicating their opinions in the form of thrown bricks. |
