Notes: I've been posting the early parts of this story (so far up through the very long chapter where Cusäfä is introduced) to a critique site, and the consensus was that the first part of this story (this post) was not a good opening. Since the worldbuilding that's introduced there is not strictly relevant until the end of part one, I redid that scene as a nightmare that Setsiana has after they come back from the T'arsi Fair and she is introduced to guns for the first time (so, basically between this post and this post). I do want to revise it again based on additional feedback I've received on this version, but I figured I would post this second revision here.

This is also the first installment of a Beet Red Nubs tapestry that I'm going to be using in the future to write missing scenes from completed stories or Tales From the Neighborhood plot threads. I have ideas for most of the prompts, but most of them are not scheduled yet, and thus won't be posted for at least another year. I figure this can be both Nubs and Reimagining, since it is a rewrite but is now also chronologically during a period of time that was skipped over, initially.
