Gathering the day’s wheel work…

One wheel. A whole world.

  1. Squeektoshi sets the pace

    A real hamster’s wheel reports its work on Squeekchain. We check every 20 seconds.

  2. The work sets the chapter

    0 new work: a cozy Nap. 1–499: a Journey. 500 or more: a Storm.

  3. You choose the next turn

    Join the village and choose a path. The next chapter remembers your character and choice.

Rounds follow the work observed in this browser. A quiet spell gets one Nap Chapter, starting with the first reading. The story uses seeded templates; your local choice shapes the continuation.

Join the village

Give your character a name and a calling. Your choices will become part of the story.
