Marvin the Miracle

The military is now heavily made up of the immigrant population predominantly Russians who came in waves to avoid the cold weather and war with Ukraine. Many have left family behind and one man who missed his wife and children back home developed a hologram technology that became hugely popular with lonely soldiers. Marvin is revered.

This is the holographic/AR/VR church for Russian military veterans that Marvin built in Rilao’s Skyring district. Marvin is buried in a giant tomb with a huge Rilaoan symbol It cost billions of Rilaoan dollars. Sadly, most native Rilaoans are xenophobically and radically opposed to immigrants and regularly protest and violently threaten the church so it must be guarded in real life and in AR and VR space by armed Russian military veterans 24/7/365.

Caged

The lions of Rilao Zoo are fond of the leaves of the magic tree.

After a dinner of steak they are fed a few leaves to help digestion. Mercifully life in a cage is much improved by the hallucinogenic qualities of this valuable plant.

MISSING CHILD — RONAN DOE

SKY RING WEEKLY REVIEW, SEPTEMBER 25th 1931
*** FOR IMMEDIATE CIRCULATION ACROSS RILAO ADMINISTRATIVE DISTRICTS***

RONAN DOE — MISSING OR PRESUMED DEAD
A boy raised in the slums of Rilao and displaced by early construction on the STEM Project in the Sky Ring district has disappeared, the Weekly Review has learned. Both parents dead of the plague, Ronan (surname unknown) was last seen leaving the vicinity of a Sky Ring District schoolhouse by night, in mild-mannered conversation with a man presumed to be his teacher (name not released). Concerned friends say Ronan was dedicated to improving the lives of students by encouraging them to drop out of our nation’s fine schools, a fool’s errand if ever there has been one.

His body has yet to be recovered, and he was last seen in the region of new STEM construction surrounding the Sky Ring District.

USB Drive from the Future

A USB Drive in the shape of a coral contains all the knowledge from the future – the year 2035… but it will take some effort to decode it. Meanwhile, online conspiracy theorist Edward Rilaoden is already starting to rally Rilaoans around him, using the flash drive as an entry point into government conspiracies. Take a look at his twitter feed @rilaoden !

The God in the Alcove

“The Monster from the tele nova series is remotely based on a character from Riloan mythology known as the “God in the Alcove.”
The “God” was jailed saint, who imprisoned “itself” as a means to prophesies that isolation would be the best means to not get to plague.”
