The Village of Orlane
Soon after the arrival of the first farmers, they discovered a temple to goddess of agriculture, Merikka. While they no longer belive in such nonsense, it seemed a fitting omen and thus, the village of Orlane was born. The land here proved to be very rich, often producing crops half again as large as those grown in more mundane soil. Orlane quickly grew into a thriving community of 300 people.
Occasionally, the settlers were harassed by bands of humanoids from the forest, or strange, scaly creatures from the swamp. These farmers were hardy folk, however, and were not intimidated by a few raids. Instead, they organized a well trained militia to meet the assaults of the monsters with cold steel. The humanoids soon learned that Orlane was a village best left alone.
Throughout the past year, the population of Orlane has undergone a steady decline. Many farmers have packed their possessions and, for unknown reasons, migrated to other, less fertile areas. Some homes have simply been found abandoned, with food on the table or crops unharvested in the field. No explanation has ever been offered for these strange disappearances. Sometimes the families have returned in a week or two, and other times they have never been heard from again.
The friendly character of Orlane has vanished as those who remain have become suspicious of the strange occurrences. Families have drawn in upon themselves, rarely conversing with their neighbors. Now, strangers in Orlane are more often met with questions and challenges than friendly invitations.
