Hook
A farm town has been harvesting the same Tuesday for three months.
Blunder is a round world where mistakes can become real. A misspoken name may change a village sign, a botched spell may create a new river, and a popular rumor can harden into law. People live by checking ledgers, correcting maps, and laughing before fate notices. Heroes are valued not for being flawless, but for fixing trouble before someone important calls it policy.
Themes

Traversal
Travel follows roads, rivers, coasts, and mountain passes; skilled mages can shorten journeys by correcting a map, though every shortcut creates a new complication.
