-and released the penned slaves, but has replaced those slaves with enemies of the state.
+On the dawn of Flameday, 10 Summerstime, 772 SG, a remarkable event occured within the city. Chancellor Kaspar Strauss gathered people from all around for a massive celebration of Unity. During that celebration, Strauss whipped his followers into an ecstatic frenzy, and sought to sacrifice his citizens in some sort of dark ritual. His ritual caught the eye of some greater dark power, which seemed to cut him off from the ritual, causing it to backfire. In the fallout of this event, Strauss and the New Dawn cult were thus sacrificed. The ritual spiraled out of control and gave birth to a new deity, Unity, which scoured the city of all of its corruptive cults in a brilliant show of judgement as a great crimson eye in the sky above the city.

+The government of Tonovi is divided into Trade Unions, or Syndicates, each with their own areas of operation and influence. The Union of the Hammer is dedicated to the oversight and communication with the various specific trade unions within the city. The Union of the Sword is dedicated to overseeing all aspects of the military. The Union of the Cog encompasses the marriage between science, magic and industry. The Hall of Unity oversees propaganda, foreign relations and spiritual guidance. Each Syndicate is represented by a Syndicate Chairperson, who is elected by the members of that individual syndicate. The Chair members form the Unity Council, which is presided over by an enigmatic figure known simply as The Chairperson. Tonovi has become, therefore, a great National-Syndicalist experiment, with true collectivist and democratic principles extended towards the greater prosperity and prestige of the city-state.

+On 9 Summerstime, 776 SG, the Unity Council announced the formation of a new Syndicate: The Union of Blood. The Union Blood is currently tasked with monitoring the purity of blood amongst the citizens of Tonovi, compelled by the idea that humanity, on its current course, is inevitably doomed by slow corruption over time to obscurity.
