Culture: In Madziar, every possible culture is represented in some small corner or pocket, but the overall idea is an exploration of and celebration of all things in creation. A virtual paradise on Shem to the unstudied visitor, the tensions within the city eventually become apparent to those who live there--slight political threads, shemir wondering which side will we be on in the end? Indeed, the alpha-omega struggle is the heart of all shemir tensions. However, until such time as that becomes relevant, the key aspect of their society is the sheer wonder of their city.
