Summary
Life was going as usual in the small village of Meerwacht, the town healer Saga spend her days gathering herbs, shrooms and healing the sick. Muireall predicted and informed people of the weather. Arti did errands for Granny Nema and occassionally made an explosion happen (she swears whe will finish that rocking chair). One gray autumn morning more sick were in needs of Saga's aid. They came from surrounding villages all with the same symptoms. As they were afflicted with an unknown disease, Saga could only alleviate the symptoms. Meanwhile Muireall noticed the animals were behving strange. They got closer to people than usual and even more aggressive. Together they concluded that whatever was infgecting the people was also affecting the animals and worried how to contain the epidemic of unknown origin. As days got colder more people fell ill and symptoms got worse. Even the most active patients became nearly still and unmoving. A dwarf from another village knocked on Saga's door in a daze. Hae cane to his senses after a good whack to tje head but had no recollection of why he was there. We couldb't really figure it out as the patient all suddenly started attacking Saga so the two bolted. The infected are slow moving but chase them. They ran into Arti and Muireall on the way to the town hall to ring the warning bell. Omly few people respond to the bell and all others join the swarm of intfected that has now formed. From outside of town more infected join the horde as well. The few remaning healthe people decide to flee on a boat, with Magnus the dwarf in a seperate attached boat as his behaviour is concerning. The swarm followed along the coast for a while but eventually disappeared out of sight due to difference in speed. The small group of survivors decide to send a group to scout out the nearest port town Seeblick to see if it's a safe place to dock and get supplies: Muireall, Saga and Arti.
