What it is about

Note: You need a Tarot deck and a pool of d6, as well as Journaling tools, to play this game. You are an itinerant Record Keeper, recently arrived to the very last nocturnal lepidopterarium, a safe haven for the moths which hold and preserve the history of this valley, the ruins of a long-lost civilization. Unfortunately, a mysterious blight known as The Silvering is spreading, faster each night, and it has even begun to show here, on the very edges of the world. It is your duty to collect, pacify, and record the histories of these moths before they are Silvered, and their spots and stripes gone forever. Ignore the rumors of petty Keepers who pick and choose which moths go untouched by the blight. You must use gather and use your Herbs to soothe the Moths gathered by your Lanterns. Keep the lights on with a steady flow of Lantern Oil. Try to not let the Strain overwhelm you, let the Lore guide you.
