Not sure where they came from as the wolves ate most of the ones they killed, but I suddenly noticed these bodies sliding along the road from the town to this new field.
One on the way to the field.
Having lost nearly all my villagers (got down to 2 kids) I’m back up to 7 and in 2 of the houses they say that 2 villagers are tilling which equals the 4 sliding bodies.
Looks like they are working the field, but doing it on their bellies. Weird.
Sent you the save in case you want to have a look.
