Awesome, truly awesome. And I love the faces blowing the raft. Could these be the faces of the "Guilding Hand?" Inside the "castle" or "fort", is that a bench I see. Does this mean the villiagers will sit down and take their meals together. If so, I love it. I am so looking forward to VV3's release. But if the release date is in April, I will have to wait until May to enjoy the game. My hubby will be home on R&R and we will be on a "second honeymoon." Congrats to LDW for a job well done.

OK, from the clues in the screenshots, what can we work out so far? It looks like the villagers have built a raft (they were either the group that left in the VV2 event or another group). From the storm in the second picture I'd say they get shipwrecked on the north shore of Isola. Since the game in the first pic has only just been started, they must have found the castle, or fort, or whatever it is, and started to clean it up so they can live in it. All seven villagers (adults) are in view in the screenshot so they don't have any kids right at the start. From the bamboo used to patch holes in the "fort's" walls, and lying on the ground, the builders use that as a material. If they need the shelter of a "fort", does that mean there are dangerous animals or possibly enemy tribes about?
Any more deductions? The group seem to have moved further into the woods or could even be mountain ranges? Maybe the shelter is needed not only from dangerous animals or enmeies, but even a drastic change in weather? More storms, prehaps?

Just imagine if there were two Obis, Obi One and Obi Two, and then there was a third Obi who was the first Obi's cousin, the third Obi would be Obi One's kin Obi.

"Obie One's kin Obie" Too funny! You get extra clicks for that.

In old paintings you'll often see the winds personified as faces in the clouds blowing ships along. They often appear like that as decorations on old maps as well. I think that's what's intended here.

If you look closer, the water is calm beyond the crude sailing vessel.
Maybe the faces are the gods/godesses of the island/area. These gods/godesses might be trying to keep the group from landing on their soil.
