Neat and concise summary of what unites the ‘covistance’ (huh?)
Point 4. is especially apt I think, concluding
A real appreciation of radical diversity as a source of strength has emerged within the Covistance.
Hear, hear.

Have to say that I too still don’t know how all this happened, or how many different - probably rivalrous - factions of playerz have jumped onto the on-the-make bandwaggon. Was any single group behind it all? I never think that likely, because I don’t believe hom sap is up to such uber-villainy. Super figures like that are simply part of our story-telling pleasures. Obviously Pastelman Gates doesn’t qualify.
But if that’s so, then… what the hell happened? HowTF did we get into this mess?
