RP explanation...

[katriell]

So, what does all this mean for Atys and its homins?

If the game ends, what happened? Would we assume that the newlands were ravaged by a massive invasion the Kitin had been silently preparing for many cycles? Atys destroyed entirely by a stray meteor or such that the Karavan could not divert? Or will the living planet and all its inhabitants be assumed to go on, albeit out of sight and control of the players (unless a forum RPG or such was started based on it)?

If the game doesn't end, do we bother to translate into RP any of the turmoil of these weeks? Probably could get away with ignoring it as far as our homin characters are concerned.
