Power Holiday
The power holiday enabled generator maintenance but imposed widespread restrictions and a week of rising temperatures that threatened the servers.
Story so far
Jahns proposed the power holiday to allow maintenance and commemorate cleaners, and Juliette made it a condition of accepting the sheriff’s job. Juliette suggested announcing it while the mood after cleaning remained favorable.
A silo-wide brownout closed most merchants, with severe restrictions elsewhere largely compensating for IT’s exemptions. A nursery nurse reported hectic conditions. By the fourth day, the generator refit faced a deadline to have the machine running the next morning and at full power the following evening. The holiday also brought a week of rising temperatures that threatened the servers.
Role
It provided the reduced-power period for generator repairs while straining other services and server cooling.
