Saving Sprites

From the introduction: Over the last few weeks, your home has become a more dangerous place to live. The weather varies dramatically. In addition to the previously unknown hail storms, wind storms, earthquakes, and fluctuations in gravity, there's been enough rain to flood the homes settled on the forest floor. Everyone, including the corgi familiars and mounts, have been relocated to the higher tiers of houses with the winged sprites. The flora has begun developing new abilities. Plants that would normally cause a tummy ache are now causing poisonous, sometimes even deadly, effects. If not for your town elder, these individuals would have been lost. The fauna has grown in size and begun to develop new abilities. You, yourselves, have developed new abilities as well. As for your character, you've been in survival mode trying to take care of your community. Your skills have honed themselves at a faster rate than would normally be possible due to the conflux of magic and intense work performed over the last two weeks. The town elder, Pyrantol, has noticed your abilities. They have asked you and three other sprites in your village to figure out what caused the changes. They are open to hearing your recommendations on how to proceed.
