For the average person, the last year and change has been spent trying
their hardest to just get on with life. Those without strong religious or
political ties into these events generally wish that all this could just go
far away and leave them alone. No one wants to think about waking up one day to
a war party of orcs bashing down the front door or the possibility of a dragon
landing on your car on the way to work.

Many businesses continue full steam despite the weirdness. Thanks to
the phenomenon's general avoidance of population centers, large numbers of
citizens may enjoy a reasonably calm and protected life despite the chaos
of the world around them. This does not mean that the world has not changed
for these people. The TV reminds them with constant updates as new dungeons
appear and old ones are dismantled. Their children are drilled the 388
emergency number in case they encounter something otherworldly. It's become
a regular sight to find police officers armed with automatic weaponry and
grenades in addition to their usual pistols.

For the very brave, or stupid, some citizens are intrigued by the going-ons.
Actively seeking out and exploring dungeons and otherworldans, such
private people have amazingly short life spans. The MEC officially discourages
such activity, but it doesn't seem to deter some people.
