Description
Madeline City is the tale of a rustic fantasy city situated inside a ring of steep, rocky mountains, and all but covered by the constant clouds that serve as a fitting reminder of the dreary conditions faced by all those who live within its walls. All of those, that is, except wealthy members of the Augsburg Church. While the people of Bater District, Gnight District, and other less privileged areas of the city suffer by fighting, stealing, and drinking their way through life, the officers of the church execute their Prelate’s orders to bring the entire city under militant, fanatical rule. But just who is the goddess Madeline? Or rather, who was she? No longer among her people, she once brought peace, love, and prosperity to her city, but was moved to abandon them after they tarried in their allegiance to her. Now the Magmenian Rebellion claims her as their champion as they strive to overthrow the church’s stranglehold on the city, and the Augsburg Church cites divine duty as they scour the alleys and the slums, seeking to imprison anyone who would refuse to submit to her holy law.
