Rising empire?
Wondering if there is indeed a new, powerful society emerging from the chaos, or if it is all just a temporary blip before collapse.

God, Dealder, Redeemer - Verführer!
Naming various supposed deities or figures who might offer salvation or guidance, but acknowledging that there is also a seductive force tempting them further into depravity.
