In Which the Civ 5 mod Vox Populi has balance issues...

Good morning, my friend, dear reader of this post! Wish you a happy Friday, and an excellent weekend that is to come next! How are you? How have you been across the week? As for me, I am okay, overall. The weather on my end has been more consistent, as the days have been relatively hot over a number of them. Not ideal, I hope for more rain to cone at some point!  I, for some reason, decided to take the dust off Civ 6, and play it a bit. I trust this is due my Civ 5 current fatigue. Is it my favorite civ?

To the city where the tall tower would stand

It fell like a sandcastle
The tower above the religious temple
Once the biggest in the place

The highest peak on a dramatic swim
People sang as it fell, to a mortal dive

It felt like a sandcastle
How it stood, proud, millions would come to see
Nature do not like such attention, such confidence, it seeks to destroy it
Like a sand castle, it was melt

Like a sandcastle it felt
It fell
