Finally, finally, finally posted!

I encourage everyone to read every section for clues about what's going on. I tried to include at least a few overlaps throughout.

Each section ended up being written in a slightly different way, too, which kind of just happened, depending on the focus of info that was given in each CS. Moria's section, especially, is mostly just omens. Apologies for that being so short -- I was trying and failing to get across the fact that it's really up to Moria what to do about what may or may not be happening. It should be less clear to the rest of the village that anything is really wrong at all.

Those characters who have powers of insight might glimpse what's happening elsewhere in the world.

Since this is Advanced forum, I trust you to just go with whatever you're gonna do. For everyone, your entire village/city/etc is at your disposal for now. Do with it what you will.

Also, feel free to interrupt the NPCs or sabotage what's going on, if that's what your character would do. There is nothing I expect anyone to do. Just go with your bad self. I'll follow your lead. Soon you all will be brought together regardless what you do. ;)
