Introducing our player characters

Ariana, a self-taught-mage. A little while ago, a strange sorcerer arrived in the village looking for the mage he'd sensed here. Ariana choose to hide from him in the deep caves, and after a few days she left. With the help of Zara she was able to destroy a chaos spirit emerged from one of the shattered skeletons in the valley.

Zara, the village hero. She earned the title of hero when she drove off a bandit chief who'd tried to take over the village. She's uncomfortable with the adoration and expectations that the village seems to place on her, a fact she hides from everyone except her husband, Jorin the woodsman. ((The generator rolled that she'd confided in the character to the right which turned out to be Jorin, and then the gift from the village was an extravagant wedding. So it seemed likely that they were married)

Finally, Jorin, the woodsman. An orphan, Jorin had a harsher childhood than the other two, which partially accounts for his skills in hunting, tracking and making really great stews. The time he spent in the woods also led to an encounter with a wood spirit or fey being of some sort. It seems friendly, and even made a rare appearance to bless his marriage to Zara.

Spring starts with a newly fledged village 'elder', Aleks, taking a significant portion of the workforce away on a project to clear some of the forest below the village rather than help with the Winter Repairs project. Jorin and Zara go along with them.

In the second week, the forest clearing project hits an unexpected snag as an uprooted tree opens a long forgotten tomb to the skies. Zara and Jorin will be investigating.

Meanwhile in the village, tragedy strikes as the old widow Solya dies of old age and her daughter complicates matters by insisting that she be buried under the mountain rather than via the usual custom of sky burial. Ariana goes along with the grand daughter to both protect her and explore the deep caves.

Finally, melting snow has revealed what appears to be buildings carved into the mountains above the village.
