>Pick up your axe and chop some frozen firewood, that's good against darkness

Right, you probably should get some wood. It’s the whole point of you coming out this far from the hideout. You’ve already gone and looted through the majority of the inner town earlier for wood and found…. Nothing. You’ve already taken everything useful including wood the first time around, and as much as you didn’t want to admit it; the fifth or sixth time check isn’t going to yield anything new.

So here you are, begrudgingly about a two hour walk from the hideout on the outskirts of town with a sort of dull axe and a couple meters of rope….

Wait.

Check resources, light fires

“Who said that!?”

That was most definitely other people’s voices and right in your ear, almost rattling in your head. But there’s no one here, not for miles.

It’s finally happened isn’t it?

You’ve finally lost it, off the deep end. After however long it’s been since the last time everything went dark there hasn’t been anyone around, you’ve finally started to make up some imaginary voices in your head to start talking to you inste -

Investigate magic stick in hair

“It’s not a stick!”

At least you don’t think it is, it sprouted from your skull so you can only guess it’s more bone then stick. …But is it magic? Is it doing something? You can’t really see it from the angle you’re stuck with…. It’s not bad is it? Ellis had these stick? Bone things? They didn’t really seem to do anything to him, if anything they actually made him look really cool and mysterious and….

…. Make you officially crazy. Already you’re rambling to unknown voices in your head and shouting out into thin air.

Put a new sun up in the sky. A better one.

A sun. So the voices believe in folktales. You personally don’t believe in them but Ellis did; sometimes the way he describes things from old folktales…they would sound real. But that’s all it was.

Get your stuff. Maybe chop up some firewood if you can afford the time to. Otherwise, just go indoors and figure out what other affairs you need to sort out before it's too late.

Well at least these voices have some good reasoning to them, maybe getting distracted and staring at the black swirls for too long is what causing all this crazy. You better to get out of the sight of the thing; besides yes, your best chance of finding wood would probably be inside the thing made of wood.

Didn’t mean to do that but you’re pretty sure that means no one lives here anymore.

Now where to start?
