Fields of Mistria is a Horror game where you play as The Horror
The game starts pretty normally - the village needs a boost in the economy to recover after a horrible earthquake, so might as well get some farmer to occupy that abandoned plot of land south of the village. Might as well contact the adventurers guild, surely they'll have someone willing to settle down for something less adventurous.
Balor picks up the new farmer at the bridge and brings the newbie to the farm. Eiland shows the farmer around - the two of them find a curious statue of a dragon on that abandoned farm but Eiland doesn't pay it too much attention and never comes to check it again (despite his interest in all old stuff).
And yet, the statue speaks to the new farmer. Teaches the farmer magic. Urges the farmer to remove the seals deep in the mines. Who sealed the dragon is unknown. No one suspects the seals are there for a reason. Clearly, the seals must be removed, since the farmer says so.
Magic, dragons, Witchspeak - all are things of fairy tales after all. There's no way this will have any bad effect on the village.
Surely, the farmer summoning a rain or commanding the plants to grow or conjuring a horse out of thin air is… normal, right? The villagers are quick to comment on the new crops shipped, on the new museum finds. No one says a word about the magic. The horse. The rains. The crops. The dragon.
No one says a word about the farmer being able to tell where any villager is at any given moment. No one says a word when the farmer changes the clothes, the haircut, the hair colour, the skin colour in just a second. The farmer always looked like this of course. No one notices when the farmer's name changes. The farmer's name was always Ȧ̷͎̟͉̓͌̄̌͘r̷̘̠̙̪̤͔̥̥̀̿ī̴̭̗̯̜̺̂̈́, was it not?
Surely, it is fine to have the s̷h̸a̴p̵e̸s̶h̵i̷f̵t̸i̷n̸g̸ ̴m̸e̸m̴o̸r̶y̴-̵m̶o̴d̴i̶f̷y̵i̸n̵g̶ ̸m̵a̸g̷i̶c̵-̴c̵a̵s̴t̴i̶n̷g̸ ̷e̶n̵t̵i̶t̵y̶ in your village.
It helps the village to recover after the earthquake, after all.
The earthquake that opened the seals that hold the dragon down.
The seals that Ȧ̷͎̟͉̓͌̄̌͘r̷̘̠̙̪̤͔̥̥̀̿ī̴̭̗̯̜̺̂̈́ is trying to remove.
Surely, this is all for the greater good.
