Concuitl

Concuitl is the capital of Zacatame that is under seige during the summer of 2018 DR during the time in which the Tlatlakualistli of 2018 occured. It is one of the major cities in Zacatame next to Yeyecame, Cualnemilitzli, and Nimemitia.

Rise of the Inpolo
The city for the past 2 decades has been facing a subtle shift from the "way of the star". Tlaiximati's disappearance left a void in the hear of the capital's culture, and people were seeking answers. Slowly a banner of a skull with purple flames started appearing. These people called themselves truth seekers and labeled themselves as the Cult of the Inpolo.

This lead the city to start looking at alternatives to relying on Tlaiximati, who was much less relevant, and to policies and cultural changes in order to "deal" with his followers. The founder of the Cult of the Inpolo, named Cyric, led the way in "enlightening" the people of Concuitl and Zacatame. These changes dealt with only the gathering of power through people, resources, and political power only for the Inpolo. This was seen as lies, deceit, and corruption in the eyes of anyone outside of their cult. As such the followers of Tlaiximati became more and more isolated. They were pushed to the outskirts of the city.

A wall was built around the city dividing the city up. Imports and exports started to be controlled. And in 2016 DR a purple bubble surrounded the city and the pyramid in the center of the city started to be turned into an Obelisk towering over. People that did not have purple in their Etzli were no longer allowed to enter with the summoning of the bubble, and that's when the fighting started.

The Resistance
Throughout the rise of the Inpolo, bands of people gathered to keep Tlaiximati's way within Concuitl and started to call themselves Chichuac. They fought against the new cult that seemed to be only obsessed with exclusivity, greed, and other vices through words and politics while they could. It seemed like their peace held off for too long. Once the bubble was up, there was no other alternative but war.

Fortunately for them, Chichuac was making sure that they had allies on not only the political front. They were able to convince military and religious leaders around Zacatame that the Inpolo were not just a temporary thing. The strength of the Inpolo was much more than expected, and this nearly two year long campaign to retake the capital rages on.
