Villages are not just decorative: they feature a fully vanilla-friendly questing system with unique stories to uncover.
Players will interact with NPCs facing personal struggles such as heritage conflicts, revenge, family dramas, religious pressure, and more.

By helping villagers and completing quests, players build their reputation, unlocking:
