the gods of dath ilan
project unlawful, two years later

In a sparsely populated area of coastal Cheliax a city is being built like no other seen on the face of Golarion before, with mobile modular housing and below-ground roads, stretching towards the sky like the cities of Azlant out of legend. To the people of Golarion it is an outpost of dath ilani Civilization, and it's being built almost enitrely with dath ilan's resources, but the small army of dath ilani teachers, investors, therapists, scientists, and other people committed to the rescue operation is, at least in theory, temporary. Dath ilan does not want to colonize Golarion. They do not want to found a Federation, although they hope that the two Civilizations will trade as equals some day. They are building a safe place for those in Golarion who aspire to ideals compatible with theirs to build their own Civilization under the tutelage of their older siblings in the Way.

Immigrants to this city are, for the moment, pretty strongly self-selected for near-dath-ilani levels of Intelligence and Wisdom, but it is still very different from any place in dath ilan. Dath ilan's psychological median, it turns out, is pretty far in almost every dimension from the multiversal one, and though they could not coherently have expected this, they do know that one sample is not much evidence in any direction. Though the norms of this new society are not the norms of any of the societies of Old Golarion, they are neither the norms of dath ilan, a fact unfortunately not entirely without controversy. Many of the mechanisms of social control which dath ilan's Keepers deemed necessary to the preservation of the world are much more blatant and much less welcome among a population which in substantial portion spent the last ninety years under the rule of Hell.

(Infohazard containment in Golarion is, even among dath ilan's Keepers, widely considered a lost cause. It doesn't help that Infernal Cheliax had made the most progress on the problem before Contact, but also you can read about entities that want to destroy the world and can be contacted in such-and-such a manner in any decent library on the planet, and putting the cat back into the bag at that point is a very difficult problem. There is talk of doing a full history-screen in a few hundred years, once Civilization has spread to the entire planet, but it's predicted that the people of Golarion would not in fact be happy in retrospect to have such a thing done.)

—the dead god Aroden, ancient patron of humanity, was found to have been reincarnated as a ninth-circle wizard now living in Rahadoum. He leads the non-Civilization parts of Cheliax at the moment, though he's getting old even for a ninth-circle and he's planning to return to godhood soon.
