Deserter’s Path (🎭)

The war isn't over yet and its shadows linger across the Southern countryside. You are a deserter of the Confederate army, weary from months of pointless fighting and haunted by the loss of comrades. Your goal is simple but perilous: return home to Maple Hollows. The land you traverse is scarred and broken - abandoned farms, crumbling villages, and overgrown fields speak of years of hardship. Most of the men are gone; women, children, and the elderly struggle to survive amidst poverty, distrust, and the constant threat of bandits and militia patrols. Along the roads, you encounter isolated farms, small settlements, roadside inns, and lonely cabins. Each place presents a choice: will those you meet offer help, turn you away, or betray you? ___ Added INNER SELF 🎭 bei LewdLeah but it's DISABLED by default! To enable it go to the story cards, look for the Inner-Self Config Card and change false to true in the text box!!! Since there will be many different characters in this story you need to add the names of them into the list in the story card if you want a 'brain' for them. :-) ___ Inspired by the movie Cold Mountain :-)
