 The Ascension Group is of course well aware of this fact and has taken advantage of it, utilizing TRACE in many of its technologies such as high-grade Magitek [[cyberware]] or in the cores which power their [[replicants|android servitors]]. Whether the Ascension Group purposely built the city atop some manner of supernatural hotspot to encourage this development is a matter of much debate and conspiracy, however they go to great lengths to conceal the knowledge of this from the general public, non-sensitives, and other world governments. Magical calamities are carefully spun and reported as more mundane happenings such as sudden inclement weather, gas leaks, or outbreaks of gang violence, while scenes of TRACE-related violence are carefully cleaned up by ghostworkers employed on freelance contracts.
