Dilemma #20 - The Tunnels

Storm drains and access tunnels criss-cross the city, most having collapsed and flooded to some degree over the decades. Engineering teams venturing underground to effect repairs to the electrical grid have reported encountering groups of people living down there in the darkness, and are reluctant to proceed.

Do the Districts attempt to clear the tunnels, or work towards a truce with the inhabitants?

immediately falling victim to the gambler’s fallacy, i’m going to assume that with every roll having resulted in a 2 so far, the next one’s /sure/ to land on a 0.

Truce!
