Rilao is a city that is out-growing its space. In order to make its steep mountainous interior habitable, Rilaoans develop Sustainable Terraced Elevated Modules (S.T.E.M), a form of accumulative, stackable architecture that replaces streets with aerial transportation systems. The suspended Ring district is built. The Disciples of Lao (D.O.L.), a nationalist religious movement that worships Raymond Lao, start to agitate for Rilaoan independence.
A body was found washed up on the shores just outside of the Narrows. The body had the classic tattoo of the Nali district. The entire torso of the body was covered with the avian tattoo and it’s believed that he was some kind of priest of a rumored revolutionary cult. Subsequent investigations found a cavern where disciples of the cult seem to burn the image of their hand into the wall as a sign of allegiance.
