There are, we are told, three main kinds of stories about the Glitched: stories of grief and tragedy stories of pastoral life, quietly enjoying the life this world makes possible and stories of "hubris and conscience involving forbidden things". This section doesn't say anything about how the loyalists feel about those few Excrucians who drop out of the fight - do they spy on them? Try to destroy them as traitors? Consider them their last best hope to destroy reality from the inside? I guess this is left for the GM to think about. There's a lot more Excrucians out there, but most of them keep on Excruciating. By the way, there are canonically only 17 members of the Chancery around at the time of the book's writing, so depending on how big your group is, they could represent up to, say, 35% of the group. Not everyone has gotten the memo, though - you might still get treated as an Enemy of the World by its defenders (i.e. They might not be fighting to save the world, or even like the world very much, but they're not actively trying to destroy it. Instead, the author fills in a bit more of the setting - the defectors from the Excrucian army, or maybe you could call them Recovering Excrucians (there's no such thing as an Ex-Crucian, apparently) - they form a loose mutual support society, the Chancery. This could honestly use a little more unpacking, but we don't get it, at least not yet. First: Glitch is about mysteries, and the GM should have one big one or a bunch of little ones ready to go before starting a game. So, here's where the meaty part of the rules begins, with a longish essay about Glitch and how it's not like the other RPG's you may have hung out with in high school.
