Hero
Someone left a light on for you.

Lore
Nobody here believes they are a hero. They put the kettle on, leave a lantern burning at the bridge, and make room by the fire for whoever arrives next. The cats decided a long time ago that this was the safest place in any Realm, and cats are rarely wrong about that.
How a Loop grows here
Every fren who joins appears as a lantern.
- A Warm Stone
- First Lantern
- Cat Corner
- Hearth Village
- The Town That Waited Up
The place itself
Warm, lived-in, waiting up
- A light is on in a window at the far end of every street, at every hour.
- The bridge has been repaired many times, always with wood that does not match.
- Somebody has set an extra place at a table nobody is sitting at.
Noticed, not explained
- No fren has arrived here and found the town asleep.
- The lantern by the road is refilled nightly. No one has been seen doing it.
How frens change here
Traits that help others surface first. What a fren develops here tends to be useful to somebody who is not the fren.
Frens wait up. They stay near the paths in and greet whatever arrives, then walk it inward without being asked.
