What it is about
On the grassy southern slopes of the mountain, there's a stone hut where the Shepherdess lives alone, eking out an existence, no company but her sheep, the landscape, the weather, and those who come to see her, from time to time. And come they do, for she is wise, strong, clever, and beautiful. Stay a while, and rest your feet, for her year is long and short, quiet and loud, empty and full. A solo roleplaying game based on the Wretched & Alone system.
