First Victim
A few minutes later Jake slowed down as the new light arrow shot to the ground below them. Following the arrow's path laid out for them, the group began their descent, quickly breaking through the layer of artificial clouds to discover a new Village, this time quite different from the Inuit Village they had just visited.
This Village was intact, but desolate. In the far north of the map, the usual Forest, Lake, and Mountain were present, but where the neighboring Villages should have been, there was nothing but more Forest and more Lake.
That no lights or torches were lit was not unexpected, but the dead silence was somewhat unnatural. It wasn't just because it was night and the Villagers were sleeping. Nor was it because its former Villagers had fled the place after an attack.
Considering the overgrown fields and gardens and the immaculate homes, this place had simply never been inhabited. And that made it all the more suspicious.
