Swamped

You see something small and made of metal. It starts moving.

Then, suddenly, you see a lot more of them. You can't even really understand what they are, or what they're trying to do.

Whatever it is, they soon seem to abandon it, and start scurrying about, slowly forming into a shape. It looks like a large circle with some other mark inside it. But you don't recognize it.

Except, parts of it look like the sketch of the mark on the artist's injury report. Is this what the complete thing is meant to be? And if so, what does it mean? And what do these metal creatures have to do with it?

The vision stops. You have more questions than answers.

Your best guess is that the mark somehow relates to the exiled god. If that's right, then whoever attacked the artist would either be the lone worshipper, or someone they hired.

But if that's right... then what do the metal creatures mean? And why did you see them when you held this wooden crest?

You take a closer look at the crest. Perhaps that will tell you something.
