A Thousand Unspoken Words is a Shadow of Yesterday game set in Near, following the conspiracy lurking behind the Ammenite Great Houses to steal the words of Zu from the land of Zaru.




The Library of Leaves

At the Library of Leaves, the Zu well near the Tendau Plantation, Montaigu (Jonked), Ramon (CaptainFoo), and Nuri (redgrog) met three Moon-men trying send zu-leaves down the river to Ammeni. They mentioned they learned the location from 'the Master Gardener.' Given that they are fucking crazy, it might just be a joke, or something more explicit.

Montaigu (Jonked) took a bunch of leaves with him, hiding them in his book.




The Ammenite Library of Anton

The library where the conspirators learned of Zu wells came from one of their own libraries, in the city of Anton.
