Kasia and the Lights of the Waldbach Valley
Rabenau is a mid-sized city of old streets and new labs, with the Waldbach valley and its wooded ridge a short ride away. The institute lends field equipment on signed loan forms, and the rangers control the gates and tower access in the woods.
Kasia
Starts at Helmholtz Institute RabenauKasia is a cheerful young woman of 28 who grew up on a farm and now works as a physicist at the Helmholtz institute in Rabenau. She studied in the city but still feels most at home on a muddy trail.
Looks likeA friendly woman of 28 with a round, open face, bright blue eyes, and curly shoulder-length brown hair tucked behind one ear. She wears a light canvas field jacket over a striped shirt, dark hiking trousers, and scuffed boots, with a small brass compass on a cord around her neck.

Helmholtz Institute Rabenau
A blocky glass-and-brick research building on the north edge of the city, full of humming labs, chalk dust, and a coffee machine that is always out of milk.
Dr. Marek Voss- Kasia's Flat on Linden StreetA small rented flat above a bakery in the old town, with a desk covered in notebooks and a bicycle parked in the stairwell.
Ilse Brandt - Waldbach TrailheadA gravel car park at the edge of the woods where a wooden sign points into the trees and a stream runs under a small footbridge.
Tobias Rehn - Rabenau Ridge TowerAn old stone survey tower on the high ridge, its spiral stairs worn smooth and its top platform open to the wind and a wide view of the valley.
Greta Lindqvist - Alder HollowA damp, quiet dip in the forest floor where alders lean over a slow stream and the air smells of wet stone and green moss.
Fen - Rabenau Saturday MarketA busy square of stalls selling bread, cheese, honey, and secondhand tools, with a fountain in the middle and pigeons who fear nothing.
