A terrible fate has befallen London. The year is 1886, the sun has been blotted out, an ice age has began. You and your people leave London and settle up north to survive. A coal-powered industrial generator heats your homes, you have limited supply and man-power but you have survived. To survive your people have worked 24 hour shifts, on soup rations and make-shift shelter. Discontentment is brewing and to maintain peace and stability you must choose a path. Will you rule by Faith or Law and Order? Choose: [[Faith->Faith]] [[Law->Law]] Reference Frostpunk. 2018. 11 Bit Studios.

You know that returning to London is a suicide mission. [[Clam down, we're not going to die->Calm down, we're not going to die - law]] Reference Frostpunk. 2018. 11 Bit Studios.

Advisor: "Sir, the people who want to leave for London have successfully urged their friends and neighbours to join them. People are more easily persuaded, because they have little hope in our ultimate survival." Law and order has restored hope, but many of the Londoner's are determined to leave.
