This prompt is suggested by the Write the Book podcast’s interview with Rachel Urquhart about her novel The Visionist. 

Invent a group that has diminished from a large, powerful organization or community to something smaller, with minimal influence. What does this group look like? What happened to change their situation? What characters come to mind when you consider this scenario, and how might each of them react to their change in size and scope?
