"I am a power pilgrim. I travel the world to praise the great electrical networks. Please provide me with power so that I can continue my journey."

The Amber Order Pilgrims travel the world to pay reverence to and express their trust in the Great Electrical System. On their pilgrimages they wear traditional Amber Robes that are held together by battery-powered electromagnets. When the battery runs low the robe begins falling apart, requiring the pilgrim to recharge for 30 minutes every other hour. In order to continue his journey the pilgrim thus depends on the availability of public power outlets and the generosity of strangers.
