So some Elf merchants arrived, and because I didn't have a depot up yet, I decided to ignore them. Halfway through summer, I get the dual notifications of an Elf merchent going stark raving mad and of their Yak going berserk. Their pathing seems to have been interrupted 2 tiles away from the edge of the map.

Then one of my cats did a ton of damage to the Yak.

what's going on, and should I pour magma over them?

[Mr. Palau]

Well they are insane so they will be hostile. If merchents are left on your map for too long they will go insane. And this can happen even if you don't trade with them. Also if you trade with them and don't allow them to leave the map. I believe you have to build a depot, have them go there, (you don't have to trade with them they just have to go to the depot) and then let them leave, in order to not have insane merchants on your map.

Also the title should be sudden insanity, unless you did that on purpose.

Well I think his avatar speaks for itself.

There are three kinds of insanity. Berserk creatures are hostile, melancholy and stark raving mad creatures are not.

And yes, Magma.
