	The World War shatters the old order and the certainties of science and empire. Perhaps you served in it. Perhaps it was enough to make you forget the strange events of that summer that was overshadowed by war. Now, seven years later, you are back in Trimountaine. It is 1922, ~~three~~ years after the sleeping sickness brought the Great War to its conclusion. The economy booms and people try to put the horrors of the past behind them. But not all horrors are content to be banished to the past.		The World War shatters the old order and the certainties of science and empire. Perhaps you served in it.

	Such events seem so far away, separated by half a world. You are first-year students at Saint Yvette's College, a bustling and well-regarded women's university of around ten thousand near the port city of Trimountaine, known for offering excellent educations both to the daughters of old money merchants and colonial aristocracy and to up and coming daughters of the middle class, as well as daughters of foreign families from the protectorates, who wish to turn academic ability into a fine education. There are even a few daughters of the lower classes here, brought in on scholarships and paid for by beneficient societies. Your exams are completed and now all that remains is the final few weeks of the term with little to do.		Such events seem so far away, separated by half a world.

	Each for her own reason you have become interested in the occult. As such interests are forbidden in the pious halls of Saint Yvette, you have kept your interests to yourself and your small circle of friends. One such friend is Alicia Wiltshire, a daughter of one of the finest families in Britannia, who brought many of you into an interest in the occult. Now Alice has sent you a note asking you to meet her ~~at an old college in~~ the ~~woods~~ to discuss a matter of importance.		Each for her own reason you have become interested in the occult.
