@awg Aye. Its the a.i. storyteller.
from how I understand it, they pick events based on their algos and player situation.
have a bunch of stockpiled silver more raids from bandits and pirates.
the alpha beaver event was so scary until you learn. basicly a bunch of geneticly mutated beavers come in and eat all the trees. and they are/were pretty hard to fight you can kill one but the others would like come after you for that.
