Sure, yeah. Epics only terrorize them sometimes. It's like no man's land up there so you don't hear too much. Mostly they get left alone, as far as I know.
St. Petersburg burned down again, like two years after Calamity. Couple of Epics went to war against each other there, they didn't even need a military presence to destroy everything. Lots of people died that time.
Part of Moscow was still standing and fighting back last year, they've still got a government presence. I haven't heard anything new. Mostly the small towns and cities are left alone, they're under protection of three Epics calling themselves Baba Yaga. But, protection doesn't mean anything when it comes from an Epic. They're most just glorified slaves.
