Creating a Fragment

When it's your turn to send a fragment, follow these steps: 
 1. Choose Your Medium 
 Decide what form your fragment takes: 
 
 Letter or journal entry 
 Ritual instructions 
 Dream or vision 
 Map annotation 
 Audio recording description 
 Shrine inscription 
 Psychic echo 
 
 2. Ground It in Place and Time 
 Reference a location on the map (existing or new) and indicate when this fragment originates: 
 
 How long after the last fragment? 
 Before or after a specific event? 
 In response to what? 
 
 3. Make a Change 
 Every fragment must alter something. Choose one or more: 
 Minor Changes (most fragments should be this scale): 
 
 Add a new location to the map (settlement, ruin, shrine) 
 Reveal a memory or detail about the past 
 Shift the emotional tone of your relationship 
 Introduce a symbol or recurring image 
 Add a question or mystery 
 
 Major Changes (use sparingly, 1-2 per game): 
 
 Drastically alter established facts about a location 
 Reveal a betrayal or hidden truth 
 Permanently transform one of the Windcallers 
 Destroy or redeem a major location 
 Change the nature of your bond 
 
 Forbidden Changes: 
 
 You cannot directly control the other Windcaller's actions or thoughts 
 You cannot negate their previous fragment entirely 
 You cannot declare their Windcaller dead without agreement 
 
 4. Invite Response 
 End your fragment with something that calls for reply: 
 
 A direct question 
 An unfinished ritual 
 A symbol requiring interpretation 
 A contradiction to resolve 
 A location to explore 
 
 5. Update the Map 
 Add your new location or change to the shared map (see Map Generation section).
