Torches and Pitchforks
The sorcerer has finally gone too far. It was bad enough before - stolen or mutilated livestock, weird noises and smells, bad dreams. There was a day when all the milk in the village curdled, and one when hundreds of frogs crawled out of the thatch. We should have driven him out when Flora birthed that monstrous thing, but we did not love Flora enough and we were cowards. But now, we can take no more. A great beast came from the sorcerer's garden by night, smashed the gates of the sacred virgins' sanctuary, slew the eunuch monks brave enough to try to drive it off, and ravaged the sacred virgins and their place of worship while we all cowered in our homes.
But day is here, and we are done with cowering. Our hearts are hardened by the sorcerer's wickedness, and we take up whatever weapons and tools we can find and come out to the village green, gray-faced and angry. The sorcerer will leave or he will die!
The first chapter of this game will see the young men and women of the village march out to the sorcerer's garden and confront him and his minions. The cost will surely be high, but those who survive may go on to a life of high adventure!
