And then you find them. The traces of the past. Perhaps they are marked by a tiny symbol on your map, perhaps not.

There are no plaques to explain their fading presence before you, nothing to account for what they once were – who made them, lived in them or abandoned them. Now they are merged with the landscape. They are being reclaimed by nature.
