I know it isn't the easiest to tell time in this place, but I'm pretty damn sure the sun should be up by now.

If he's here
What in Calamity

When the Great Transfersion happened, Steelheart took power and other Epics allied themselves with him. One of them was named Nightwielder.

Nightwielder blocked out the sun, moon, and stars over all of Newcago and surrounding areas, so that for ten years we lived in perpetual darkness.

You get used to it! Not too bad, eh? Just lucky no one farmed anything because sparks is it hard to grow stuff without sunlight. It's why we import most of our stuff into Newcago.

Hey. I need a couple people for a project, if you're all willing.

There's talk of bonfires and communal safety and I think in general it's a good idea if we set one up in the town center. Kenzi and I were throwing around ideas for a perimeter, and basically what I want to do is use the energy of multiple fires set at different locations (to act as the energy source) to fuel to an alarm in case something nasty crawls across it.

We'd just need to maintain the center fire as a magical link will connect it to the rest.

Is this map accurate though?

Blackouts are lame. Where are you guys finding your candles?

I know you're probably loving this no sun thing, but it has me kind of freaked out.
