Consequences[]
If you tell the people: “Never fear. The sun will soon return,” they may take solace in these words; Mood may rise.
If you tell the people: “Yes, the world is doomed. We must face this bravely,” they may shake their fists at the corrupted sky; Mood may rise.
If you do nothing, the people may accept that terrible things happen at the end of the world.
Notes[]
This event happens if you are due to perform the Decade Rite in the last year of the game.
