The Anomalies
Real events nobody has fully explained, filed by the Society and graded as evidence.
Epidemics, vanished settlements and sudden fortunes. Every event on this map really happened, or was really reported. Each file keeps two things apart: what the historical record shows, and why the Society kept it.
The Society grades each file. Filed as evidence means it could not be explained away. Inconclusive means the question is still open. Dismissed means an ordinary explanation was found.
