Broken Compass event

Broken Compass event

A lone signpost stands atop a snowy mountain. A closer inspection revealed that it was, in fact, not a signpost. Yet it functions as a signpost. Stiff corpses point to various directions with their frozen arms. What awaits at the end of the paths these fingers point to?

Choices

1

North, to where the burst-open arm points.

At the end of the path is an ashen village, burned to the ground. Most buildings are in ruins, as though this village had once been an epicenter of a great explosion. The snowstorm carries with it a burnt scent. A cabin stands out amidst this ashen ruin buried under ash and snow.

What happened here?

1

Investigate.

You find a boiling pot inside the cabin. Many must have perished in the cold, having failed to find this cabin.

Gain Cost

2

Walk past it.

The cabin is completely buried by an avalanche. The cabin, which was the only recognizable structure in this village, is completely gone from sight.

2

East, to where the warning hand points.

Select to gain a Sinking E.G.O Gift

There is a compass there that keeps spinning, unable to find a direction. The screams stop as soon as you pick up the compass.

Lose 20 SP (every Sinner)

2

Walk past it.

The lost ones' screams continue to echo. One may assume that they know the way... but there's no telling directions in this endless field of snow.

3

West, to where the broken hand points.

A flowerbed appears past the snowstorm. It looks rather out of place. Maybe this can be a place of respite.

Should we rest a little?

1

Rest a little.

After taking a brief respite, you notice that the frost had dwindled somewhat. The path forward is unclear... but let's keep moving anyway.

Recover 20 SP (every Sinner)

2

Walk past it.

The path ahead is an endless blizzard. A respite like the one you saw earlier will not be easy to find.

4

Turn back.

We decided to ignore the signpost of hands and walk past it.
