So put yourself in this situation.
Your village leader failed at judging the internet char,inviting a griefer into the village.
It happens the 2nd time and you start to think he doesnt trust you.
So you move out with your friends to someplace else in a place thats like flooded with raiders.
Then something happens and the small village youve built goes to hell with only you remaining,and your old village doesnt want you back and you dont have any combat training.
Choices
You got 2 choices,both in the end sucking hard.
You could either abandon everything thats left to find someplace that actually MIGHT be safe but you have to abandon metals(which you cant make atm because your full nature) or search for a village.
OR you can continieu to build on the ruins with a palisade and some scents(theft).
What would you do if you were in this damned situation.
