The group , mostly his salamanders, take turns explaining their perspective on what's happened. It takes a few hours, and skips all over the palce, but he gets the gist of events, fairly quickly.<br/><br/>Saarisi's religion had never spread far beyond the Plane of Fire to begin with, though there were still some dwarven cults across the planes, the bulk of the followers were always relatively nearby.<br/><br/>The City managed much as it always did; while planar trade was useful, there were still some willing to make the journey, and much of their product was still usable within the plane itself, or sold to merchants who then set out across the planes.<br/><br/>No one had anything but guesses as to what happened to the gods; as far as most were concerned, they'd simply up and disappeared.<br/><br/>There were some interesting stories about the local politics, but nothing that stood out as world-changing. The city kept a fairly even balance between its factions; if one grew too powerful, the others would unite to bring it down to size, which led to slow shifts hovering around a relatively equal point.
