Campo Largo has two major points of divergence, leading to four routes.
The current build follows one thread from the first point of divergence (after the prayer pictured below; choose "...my mission...") to the second.
Other routes will come later! ;)

Many thanks to @dusktheburr.bsky.social, one of CL's beta readers, for surreptitiously adding the project to the massive mosaic of FVN references near Echo, UT, on wplace.live!

2008 is three years before the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints ran its "I'm a Mormon" ad campaign, and ten years before the LDS president ceased all use of "Mormon."
So "Mormon" still appears all over!

Every missionary is assigned a companion.
You need to stay in each other's presence 24/7 for, generally, 6-12 weeks — so they're a big deal!
Elder Hartley, our protagonist, has been with Elder Brooks (possum) for 12 weeks.
... Now who will be his new companion?

Q: Where is Elder Hartley serving his mission?
A: The northeast corner of the South American nation of Paraná, which bears a certain resemblance to a certain nation in our world. He's been stationed near Conquista, the capital of Llano province — until now.

Every six weeks, there's a chance that LDS missionaries will get transferred to a new "area" — a different location, with a different companion.
Who decides these assignments?
The mission president!
Presidente Billings oversees the missionaries across four provinces.

Meet our protagonist: Elder Travis Hartley!
Like most male missionaries, he's 19. He hails from the American Midwest, and he's been on his mission for six months — but all in a single city so far.
But now he's getting promoted and reassigned: new place, new companion...

I'm amused that the last time I played Civ VI, probably my most-played video game ever, was the week I got the idea for and started writing Campo Largo.

And now he'll have a brand-new missionary as a companion — and is reassigned to a town that hasn't had missionaries for years.
What's on his heart has he prepares to leave for Campo Largo?

Doing some clean-up of visuals and transitions in preparation for a first release!
(Sidenote: it's kind of uncanny that I managed to get photos of a place where I actually lived in this thing, haha.)

I actually borrowed the overall look from an LDS Church ad campaign from 2012, heh. It was perfect!

Maybe you saw the little cards (below) at Anthrocon!
We're glad you're here, and happy to say that we're aiming for a first release in... AUGUST!
Looking forward to sharing this story with y'all!

I invented "Tres Lagunas" ("Three Ponds") as a generic, geographically descriptive name of the sort that's common locally
And the Toba, one of the local indigenous groups, had named a real place exactly that
LOL

Hypothesis confirmed! It's a translation of an indigenous name.

Welcome to every FVN fan's favorite Mormon!
I'll share updates from the Elder Bronson route when I have them.
