Might be running a #burningwheel game soon, and I'm thinking of shamelessly ripping off Arx Fatalis and NK Jemisin's #brokenearth novels. My quandary is which of these is most exciting:

1) The immediate aftermath of the cataclysm as a group moves into a vault/shelter

2) The internal dynamics of a community while the cataclysm still rages outside, no end in sight

3) The fate of a group as the calamity begins to subside and leaving the "vault" becomes viable

@reginasbread You might like N.K. Jemisin's Broken Earth Trilogy (The Fifth Season, The Obelisk Gate, The Stone Sky). I should warn that there are also younger heroes, but if you want a story about a middle-aged woman who has seen some shit and is tired, so very very tired, of trying to save the world for people who hate her...

(also, Jemisin's prose is on par with Dylan Thomas, would be the other reason to read it)

"Say nothing to me of lost innocents, unearned suffering. When a comm builds atop a faultline, do you blame its walls for crushing the people inside when they inevitably fall? Some worlds are built upon a faultline of pain, held stable--temporarily--by nightmare walls. Don't lament when they fall apart. Lament that they were ever built in the first place."

- From #TheObeliskGate by #NKJemisin (Book 3 of the #BrokenEarth series)
