Rilao Victory Song: Unity in Nature

“By 2014, Rilaoans have transcended the evils of colonialism initiated by Raymond Lau at the end of the 19th Century. Soul searching in every valley of the island leads to a unified goal of creating a large wilderness sanctuary on the island. A national song celebrates unity on the island.”

While investigating a wilderness society, we learned of this song from 2014 related to Rilaoan colonialism.

Unreal Reality

While exploring a VR wilderness sanctuary, Rilaons can choose to meet the Shaman, an imaginary character who recounts Rilaon superstitions to the explorer. If you go through during carnival, the Shaman marks the participant with a VR tattoo that lasts beyond the VR experience.

Coraserve

A superstition exists in Rilaoan culture that revolves around the mining of smart material from coral, an indigenous formation that is considered holy in Rilao and the trade of the coral as a terraforming base. Wilderness sanctuaries have been established to conserve the coral called “Coraserve,” which protected the coral formations and preserve their holiness.
