Picture of the front side of the Cloud Empress Ecological Science Fantasy RPG Boxsets and Volume 1 of the Almanac. The cover of the larger green box shows an illustration of a skull with mushrooms growing out of its right eye socket.
The illustration on the smaller white box shows a cicada on a yellow, grassy background.
Both boxes bear a Panic Engine logo and the Worlds by Watt logo.
The Almanac shows three seated people, presumably in a discussion. Two of them have a folded document before them and writing Tools or similar instruments in their hands. Both are looking at the third, who appears to be speaking.
The back of the green box, bears the following text:
CLOUD ENIPRESS
Welcome to the Hereafter. This is a world where we are small things, where we are cursed, where reality is slippery, and we survive in beauty and terror.
Explore a land governed by the patterns of giant psychic cicadas-the Imago. When the Cloud Empress goes missing, glory-hungry soldiers trom royal lands above the clouds threaten the balance. The fields below will burn without your help.
Cloud Empress streamlines the Mothership 1E Panic Engine into a standalone ecological science-fantasy setting.
Unleash imaginative magic spells and harness ancient relics to survive the summer of the Century Brood.

Bank of the almanac, shows a table:
SOLO GROUP ACTIONS
When controlling an entire traveling party in solo play, you may determine the party's group actions using the table below. Group actions have the same ettects in solo play as with multiple players.
At the start of each in-game day, resolve the columns in the table below from right to left. Determine the row to resolve based on the traveling party's current number of provisions after consuming one provision at the start of the morning. It the party has 0-1 provisions, roll 1d 10 to determine the actions the party takes during the day.
