GASP!

I was doing a little routine scouting when I discovered that Dali's village limits had been extended to a previously abandoned mine.

Could it be that this village, thought to be a ghost town, is still active?

I decided to take a closer look and noticed a tell-tale sign: a forest containing trees of varying levels of growth.

As we live in a centuries-old forest, the only explanation is that these villagers are still kicking around, planting apple trees in addition to whatever else they do.

We have yet to make contact, but now that we have indisputable evidence that we are not alone in our hamlet, we must remain cautious at all times. Good thing we built that wall last night.
