Oh, how very sad. I have been in and out of town for a few days and the place is deserted, albeit for a few dark creatures of one form or another wandering the streets without anyone around to oust them. I remember a day when at this time of year, after the Fall Fest and in the midst of other various holidays different clans would celebrate, there would be laughter and chatter in the cool, crisp fall air. Guilds would gather cords of wood to stoke the winter fires in their halls, and most all the citizens who had wandered far and wide on expeditions and adventures would return home to their friends and loved ones for the winter. I began my roaming after finding my enjoyment of this realm was cut to the quick by gods who made it more and more difficult for those who were without nobility to exist on even ground. Now, with a unique perspective of having been away for so long, I can see how it would have been like for everyone to suddenly disappear. Most journals I found on table tops or on top of abandoned packs have had no entries in months, like everyone just walked away. It is a shame. I will remain in the area for a while, hoping to find some remnant of civilization but I'm not sure why. I can't even fish......
