FOREWORD
Two years ago Jay gave me the chance
to contribute to a very different game,
her game - one that spoke of rebuilding,
of communities, of future and tradition
interwoven. By then I knew this game
needed to grow in order to fully convey
messages that should not be denied. My
first contribution was Mirrors in the Ruins,
dealing with the other, the truly alien and
how differences can be overcome. I felt
these were stories worth telling in our age
of digital tribes and bitter lines drawn in
the sand. And man, it was fun!
But this, Engine of Life, is the
message I truly wanted to deliver, loud
and clear. That there is more power in a
job well done and with solid convictions
than in any act of violence and hatred.
That it takes courage to cooperate and
stand against the rising tides of chaos and
conformity and do something… good and
noble and enduring. Every playbook and
rule in this book was carefully developed
with this mindset.
I just hope that meditating and
writing about virtues and actions and
sacrifices has made me a slightly better
person. I could use the improvement.
Thanks to you all, whose virtues
surprised and inspired me.
