Demi: Hey, Boss, are you playing SimCity again?
Wren: No, Demi, I am not. I am simply monitoring the situation on Motavia and Dezolis.
Demi: ...looks like SimCity to me. =/
Wren: This is no life simulation, Demi. There are less than a billion Palmans still alive; in addition to the native Motavians and Dezolians, not to mention Rika, we have to ensure quality of life will improve for them all.
Demi: Boss, seriously, there's a little thing up here that says how much Meseta you have! And people are complaining that they want more roads!
Wren: The former government of Palma entrusted us with a very generous endowment to be used to maintain the weather control systems, Demi.
Demi: But what about the roads?
Wren: Palmans always complain about wanting more roads. They have forgotten that mass transit and site-to-site teleportation are more efficient.
Demi: And what about that time last month everybody's Techniques got all repressed?
Wren: I was merely experimenting with anti-psionic fields to see what would happen.
Demi: Heey, there's a Disasters menu up here and "Psionics Supression Field" is one of them! And there's "Lower Birth Rates," "Drought," "Dark Force," and... oooh. "Spontaneous Nuclear Meltdown."
Wren: That one's broken. Don't use it.
Demi: So what are you going to do about the roads?
Wren: (sighs mechanically) I will have the fabrication robots build roads. But I will only supply them with 85% of the necessary raw materials to make them.
Demi: YOU CAN'T CUT BACK ON FUNDING!!! YOU WILL REGRET THIS!!!
