This cold fall day started long ago, and by the time our heroes got close to the second town on there merchant rout it was already noon. Town thet they were about to enter was called Liper, this was not a big town but it did play a key role in supplying the biger citys with wheat. And by looks of it, our heroes did reach this city just in time of the finaly harvest of the wheat for this year.

Placid is the land beyond the urbane

territory from which we hail.

The winds hark change

and harvest sings its end.

Let us grain gather

And to profit sully

Climbing the economic ladder.

What say you of our prospects?

Surly we will have quality produce

Awaiting us in the market complex.

As Andante maid his frst steps into this small rural village named Liper. He could see thet there was no one to be seen on streets, it was like he made his frst steps into the ghost town. This was probably because most of the vilagers were outside, on the field, waching or helping in harvesting final pices of wheat for this year harvest.

 

If Andate was to look at this village he could see thet Liper was not a big village. It had couple of streets with lot of two story houses, it also had couple of small business stores like Carpenter, Tailor, one small Bakery and one big barn on small hill on the opposit side of town.

 

Andate was a merchant thet made his way into this town with bag of ten logs of wood thet he bought in small village in mountans couple of days ago. He payed 30 copper per wood in previus village, and was now wanting to sell it for more then he payed for. And if he wanted to sell wood in this town, he should probably make his way down to Carpenter store.

Looking about his surroundings, Andante gained a more thorough appreciation for the laborious nature of wheat farming. The entire village seemed to be out in the fields, and many shops that he would consider vital for a community were closed as their owners were amid the crowds tending to the final harvest. Despite this shortage of shop-keeps, Andante's ardency for his craft would guide him as it always has.

 

For truth we have steeped ourselves in alien soil:

the town is arid and lifeless,

the grass is god and ponies worship with their seasonal toil.

 

Losing himself in the attempt to flesh out the daily life of a citizen of this village, as well as the shrines to grass, Andante wakes himself to the sounds of an active carpenter. Stepping inside the Carpenter's shop Andante warmly says:

 

Good morrow and welcome,

what news of late have you?

better still, what of goods may you drum?

Alien we are to these parts,

and goods equally exotic to our standing

we seek before we depart.

This carpender shop Andate walked in was filled with tooles thet were used to cut wood, and with half made wood structures.

 

Carpender was an older stalion with brown mane. He was siting on an old and worn out bag filled with wheat. As he listen to Andate talkes frst thing thet comed to his mind was 'What is this one,talking about.' after Andate finished older stalion got up and started to walk in Andate direction, he was still thinking what this one was talking about, but he did not want to say something rude as maybie this one was not all right in the head.

 

And so he started to answer with soft voice onli thing he understeded from Andate's speach "New's are thet we are in midle of Wheat Harvest festival." He smailed at Andate and contineued "Could you maybie repeat what kaid of servise you would liked from this old stalion?"

The carpenter shop was filled with the scent of wood shavings, labor, and passion. Before Andante’s eyes he saw the life of a stallion embed itself into wares that will outlive their creator for generations. Andante Kindly reiterated his words:

 

Wooden goods we seek from you

and in trade wood we will provide.

A memory to carve, a tree to hew.

[Fallen Valkyrie 525]

Older Stalion listen to Andante weird way of talking, but unlike lest time, Andante was much more clearer at what he wanted and because of thet this older stalion understened him.

"I do custom orders onli, so for your wood I can give you onli money." Older stalion smailed softly and continued "Is thet all right?"

[SugarfootWillie 383]

Andante absorbed the old carpenter’s stipulation. Furrowing his brow and stroking his chin, Andante drifted away into a sea of thought, sailing on the scent of freshly carved wood, caught in the cross-wind of the desires of two ponies. After successfully navigating the cross-wind, Andante woke from his absent-minded contemplative state and proposed a compromise.

 

Wood for wood holds our interest

more than the prospect of coin,

though to your wishes we are deferent.

Craft for us a relic of the times

with the wood we provide

to save us both more than a few centimes.

What say you to this offer?

Will you exceptionally agree?

It never hurts for all to prosper.

 

Andante held an inquisitive look on his face as he waited for the old carpenter to respond.

[Fallen Valkyrie 525]

Old Carpender contineued right after Andante finished, he still had an smaile on his face as he talked " To create you an itmen from wood takes time, and as you seen we are in midle of wheat-harvest festival. And I do belive, and strong stalion like you, would not force an old stalion like my to miss bigest festival of the year just so you could earn some extra coin?"
