Night Falls on Yensid - Jaunt Info

NIGHT FALLS ON YENSID
October 5-November 14

The land of Yensid was once primarily populated by three species--humans, the Stonefolk, and the Forest Folk. For generations, the three of them lived together in harmony, the bonds of which were strengthened by three parts of the Amulet of Yensid, which were brought together each year in a ceremony designed to strengthen the magic of the land. The Stonefolk and Forest Folk in particular rely upon this magic, for without it, Stonefolk become statues, and the Forest Folk become simple beasts. The humans simply used magic to make their lives a little easier.

But the amulet was lost, the magic went out of the land, and now only the humans rule. The Stonefolk and Forest Folk are thought of as nothing more than myth, but there's something to that myth...and parts of an amulet have just been put on display a thousand years later in the year 201X.

Enter the Travelers, with more history in this world than they know - indeed, Yensid was another of the jaunts lost to Moebius, and their last visit was at the time the pieces of the amulet were lost. Can they make up for their past failure this time around?

For forest folk - is a dog an acceptable species, or would it have to be like 'wolf' or something?

Also if Bob the raven comes along with Casper on this Jaunt, will forest folk be able to understand him, will he be 'some weird bird we can't understand', or something else? I dunno if they can all Speak Disney or something, or if he'd be treated as someone who went feral.

Alternatively is it possible for him to investigate, too? Not sure if that'd be allowed.

Feral dogs exist, I'm using a goat and playing fast and loose, puppy it up if you want.

Bob might get looked at funny as being close to feral, but "weird magical bird from far away" is an excuse that would fly.

if Casper is, then yeah!
