Campaign Paths After Canula Prime
The crisis ends. The consequences sail.
Canula Prime should not end with the world unchanged. Even if the chamber is silenced and the harbor calms, the players have touched a conflict larger than the island. Use one or more of these paths to continue the campaign.
| Path | Trigger | Central question |
|---|---|---|
| The Albion War Path | Albion chooses speed over deniability and begins a broader disruption campaign. | Which truth will justify the next war? |
| The Duchy of Heller Secret Path | Duchy of Heller's hidden strength becomes relevant, tempting, and dangerous. | Can Duchy of Heller survive if everyone learns what it has built? |
| The Church Path | The Solarian Church sends Inquisitors and Solaris to contain spiritual and political fallout. | Can an institution protect a truth it does not understand? |
| The Ancient Systems Path | The Canula chamber points toward other source sites across the Golden Sea. | Are the old systems waking because people found them, or because the age is ready to break? |
| The Independence Path | Local groups use the crisis as proof that empire endangers the island. | Can liberation survive foreign exploitation and internal division? |
| The Free Captain Path | The players become privateers, smugglers, escorts, or deniable agents. | How much freedom can be bought before someone owns the bill? |
Choosing a next arc
Choose the path that follows the players' strongest choice. If they protected witnesses, move toward Church or Independence. If they relied on Duchy of Heller, move toward Duchy of Heller Secret. If Albion escaped, move toward war. If they became obsessed with the chamber, move toward Ancient Systems. If they took payment and kept moving, give them the Free Captain Path and let old choices find them in the next port.
