Haven't been a nomadic Eve yet, but I've definitely left towns before to be a hermit. I've only done it about... two times now? And each time I specifically set off to find a dead town. The first time I could tell a famine was oncoming. We had very little compost going, and it was clear nobody was working on it. Plus, the farm simply wasn't large enough to keep us all feed, even though we had anywhere from 3 - 5 people working on it at once! So, not only was food about to be scarce there was also the fact that there were multiple knives laying about. I got out of dodge and camped in the nearby jungle biome, trying to decide if I should wait it out until most of the people had died and gotten the farm back up or just fly the coop entirely. I decided to just keep going, and none of my children survived except when I had one at the very last minute, a daughter.
She asked me what I was doing out there. I told her that I was a nomad now, my town had gone to hell and I had enough. I told her I'd been keeping track of where I was going via a bell, that was it too long to get to (it was 18 km away). But that if she had enough interest, she could go south east and perhaps find it. I split from her, and told her good luck. She wanted to travel with me, but I told her it's easier to travel alone, and you don't have to stop as often for food breaks. I ended up finding her near the end, she had gotten herself a cart out from the wilds and was carrying a son! I died not a few minutes later, and left a message for my long deceased uncle who had helped raise me. She lived to be an elder, and said she had decided to just solo it. None of her children survived to adulthood.
The most recent time was after the update. It's true what people say, barely anybody stops to talk and everyone works three times as hard as they used to. I was designated as a builder, and after coming back to see nobody taking care of the berries, I just set off to look for food in the wilds. I would come back to drop off kids and supplies, then go back to where I knew it was safe.
I think the next time I play as an Eve or a girl in this update I'm going to teach them how to be nomads and survive. It's difficult but manageable if you know what you are doing. A sharp stone coupled with a basket is great. If you see an Eve Lone/Nomad running around it might just be me.
I've been born there twice, and the first time around my mom had a golden crown that was nice and shiny. That was two days ago, and I have no idea if crowns decay or not. The wiki says they don't after I checked, but I've seen those rusty things that look like crowns on peoples heads a few times. I was a Star, and Eve Star's last words were "I'm coming home lord..." Sounds like she found the place again! Mom gave me the crown before she died, I was her last kid and I buried her near the graveyard. Most of that place has notes on the graves, and I never got around to getting her one due to raising children + having to go do things irl. Never found out what happened to the crown after that, but I have a speculation. Ended up giving her crown to my last kid, a son. The second time I was born there I ended up being a son, and starved due to my mom not picking me up in time even though I was practically screaming F, saying it repeatedly. So much for that. Apparently people had gone on a murder spree from what my mom told me, and it looks like the Star family died out.
I'm guessing that after I passed on, the crown went back to being a symbol of monarchy instead of a shiny object that was fun and kinda cool, and that got most people killed. Or maybe a lone griefer came in and did a bunch of damage with false accusations as well as murdering whomever crossed their path?
tl;dr: Got a crown from mom and passed it onto my youngest son. Second time I starved when I was an infant and looks like the town got wiped due to a murder spree.
