Me | Hello, pretty girl. | |
Elena | Hm. Just where did you escape from? | |
Elena | What did you want? | |
Me | They say you are revolting against the King? | |
Elena | My father has decided that it's time we defended ourselves. | |
Elena | The militia never helped us anyway. They only came here to drag off our provisions. | |
Me | What kind of work is to be had here on the farm? | |
Elena | My father pays money to all the men who help defend the farm. | |
Elena | Are you interested? You don't look like someone who has a passion for field labor. | |
Me | How much does your father pay? | |
Elena | You'd have to negotiate that with him. | |
Elena | All I know is that each mercenary here gets paid every day. | |
Me | Are there any rules here that I should stick to? | |
Elena | You don't touch anything here that isn't yours. | |
Elena | You stay away from areas that are none of your business. | |
Elena | And if you must pick a fight, stick to the mercenaries. | |
Elena | If you start a brawl with the farmers, everybody here will be against you. | |
Me | What's your job here? | |
Elena | I sell the goods that we produce. If you want to buy something, just let me know. | |
Elena | But let me warn you. I won't stand for either haggling or stealing, understood? | |
Me | Show me your wares! | |
Elena | What can I offer you? | |
Me | Has anything significant happened lately? | |
Elena | A few days ago, my father decreed that we're no longer allowed to sell anything in town. | |
Elena | So now I'm staying here on the farm and selling my wares to visitors only. | |
Elena | The militia attacks on the neighboring farms are getting more frequent. Only a question of time until my father will intervene. | |
Elena | The land has become quite unsafe. Now no one ventures beyond his own fields. It's been a long time since any of us has been to town. | |
Elena | The mercenaries have become more and more restless. But since Sylvio and his boys have left, they seem to relax a little. | |
Elena | Everybody keeps talking about the impending orc attack. But I don't really believe in that. I think we're safe from them here on the farm. | |
Me | You're selling mine shares? | |
Elena | So what. I paid an arm and a leg for them myself. | |
