Draft One:
[title]Trial and Horror[title]
[description]After one of the nation's citizens, Shames Maxenland, went into an abandoned and remote ghost town named "Lament Mix" and wasn't heard of ever since but made headlines after few months of his disappearing, protesters, government officials, psychologists and some jumbo-mumbo religious freaks stormed into your office while you were working on a pyramid-shaped piece of art in your leisure after a long and tiring day, rude-fully breaking. Exhausted and surprised, you decided to do something on the issue of disappearance in your nation.[description]
[Validity]Invalid for nations that do not have a high disappearance or "lost in wilderness" death rate.[validity]
Option I: "It is all your fault that my beautiful and masculine Shames got lost in that forgotten ghost town!" Shouts the missed person's wife, Mary Sheep-Maxemland, coughing in distress. "You just don't care about all of the no-man's-lands that surround our nation! With so many underpopulated areas and regions in our country, this was supposed to be predicted on the spot! Please, [leader], send a rescue team to Lament Mix and find my husband! And regarding desolation, all of the no-man's-'lands should be blocked by law-enforcement patrols and guards. Make sure it won't happen again!"
Fallout:Romantic couples who went for their honeymoons in the beautiful countryside are blocked by the police and sent back in disappointment
Stats: Authoritarianism increases, law enforcement increases, civil rights decreased.
Option II: "Lament Mix? Oh, please, I never heard of it before!" Claims a government official for the department of Geography and Cartography, while covering your office tables with worthless and outdated maps on the remnants of your former pyramid piece of art. "Where is it located? In the north, south, west-east of [nation-name]? The woman is right, it is your fault that you didn't gave us enough cash for funding! How are we going to know our own country if we have such rusty and dusty maps? No! Add more funds to our department, and we'll make sure no drunk and hallucinating hippies are going to get lost in our glorious [full-nation-name]! Umm, and that guy? He can get lost, who knows were he is now. We are not responsible for our citizen's mistakes."
Fallout: Even the maps of your own apartments are sold to the public.
Stats: Government size increases, death-rate increases, economy slightly decreases.
Option III: "We both know exactly why Mr. Maxenland went all crazy and went there, Mr. [leader]" Strictly says renown psychologist Dr. [random-name], who mostly known for giggles because of his short-term memory and small awareness to his surroundings. "He killed his wife, of course! He couldn't cope anymore with his sins, thus he went into seclusion and voluntary isolation from the general public, as a method of expressing his distress and guilty conscience. Mr. Maxenland's anecdote is a prime example for the problems in our nation's present society, in which lacks the time and money to express their sorrows and anxiety for professional people, like me, that can truly understand, contain and offer advice and support for the unfortunate, and can keep secrets, too. Mr. [leader], in the name of comfort and professional confront, the people of this country need free-access for psychologists, psychiatrists, and other mental services. That way we may prevent once and for all the insanity of the quiet subconsciousness." He glances towards all the people in the room, Maxenland wife included.
Fallout: Dangerous outlaws tell their most abusive crimes and deep secrets only to the government-funded psychologists.
Stats: Crime increases, welfare increases, compassion increases, authoritarianism decreases.
Option IV: "No! You are all sinners to the holy assumption and the 112th commandment of our holy order, you heretics!" Screams dramatically and aggressively a member to an unnamed cult which resides near the said ghost town, in a red robe and a scar on his face. "The Holy God is the one that brought the Prophet-Receiver-Victim to the gates of this demonic yet blessed territories! Fools! Stay away from Lament Mix and late the Holy Authority of The Skies to make their fate upon this poor soul, so we all may find ourselves, eventually, to be taken from the gravity-defying Angelic Power, to the skies of the Promised Land." He throws a spear into your table, making it a new, pop-art piece of grace and horror.
Fallout: People that are lost in remote regions in [Nation-name] are left out for their fate.
Stats: Religion increases, charmlessness increases, death rate increases, tourism decreases.
