BB woke up in a great mood this morning, but when he went to the market, he was greatly disappointed. Food was getting scarcer.

bottles of milk 9.00 9 Town Hall
fried chicken leg 9.00 7 Town Hall

He made a quick deduction and determined what he must do to survive. As he was out of bread, he would need something to fill him tomorrow. He would fish. That way he could be full again. He had to hope that by the time he needed to harvest his field, he would have extra fish so that he could keep from starving. He would have to decide tomorrow on whether to fish again and build up his food supply, or work the mine and make some money. but what good is the money if there is little food on the market? he could not eat the money. Hard times called for hard decisions. Food is more important at the time.

Another day and BB goes down to the market to check on the food.

loaves of bread 10.00 2 Lyskard
bottles of milk 9.00 7 Town Hall
fried chicken leg 9.00 17 Town Hall

He returns home and has the fish he caught, then goes back to his fishing hole.

After catching 2 more fish, BB heads home for the night. he checks his garden and figures with as fast as it is growing, he will be able to harvest in just a few more days.

After finishing the fish he had started that morning, he laid down to sleep. Again his dreams are filled with the mystery woman and her little pet.

When he wakes the next morning, he cooks up a bag of corn and has a light breakfast. He heads back down to the lake to fish some more.

A restless night for Ashlyn, she found herself dreaming once again of the man. She wondered who he was, the man in her dream .....

When she awoke, she could still see his face, clearly, from her vision .... and decided to paint his picture ....

BB wakes very rested the next morning. He eats some of the fish he has caught and checks on his field. It is doing great, he should be able to harvest it tomorrow.

He checks the market again:

loaves of bread 7.00 16 Town Hall
bags of corn 3.50 4 Chimera
bottles of milk 9.00 2 Aengus
fried chicken leg 9.00 30 Town Hall

Finally there is food, but he doesn't have much money and he will have more corn soon, so he heads out to the lake for another day of fishing. On his way to the lake, he catches a glimpse of something from the forest. Surely his eyes must have deceived him. It appeared to be a huge lion with the head, wings and front legs and claws of an eagle. He figures it must be the shadows playing tricks on his mind.

After another day of Fishing, BB decided it was time to get out a bit. He headed to the tavern which was shared by the two towns.

When he entered, there were no others to be found, except the bartender, who seemed to be mute and deaf.

Soon there was a "creature" who walked in. A large beast, as ugly as the a wild boar with a shorter snout. But it called out with a friendly voice so BB gave it the benefit of the doubt, and decided that is was alright to converse with it.

After quick introductions, BB found out the creature was a troll called Aengus, and though the troll was slow of wit, they were able to at least have some conversation.

A bit later the door opened again, and there was the lady of his dreams. BB thought this must be just another dream. A talking troll and the woman who walked in his dreams surely could not be real.

When a little winged creature comes in the door, BB recognizes a fairy, and knows it must be a dream now. He pinches himself and feels pain. So this is not a dream, but a land of magical beings?

Melusine introduced herself and all four of the "beings" were able to have a very good conversation.

BB found out that the lady Ashlyn had also been dreaming of him. He promised to visit her town soon. He wanted to learn more about her, but she had to leave. As it was getting late, he decided to leave also, and made the short trip home. That night his dreams where again filled with the woman, but this time he knew that she truly existed.

The next morning as he woke up, BB made a quick trip to the market, and found there were even more things there than before:

fried chicken leg 10.00 43 Town Hall
third hand quilt 50.00 1 Town Hall
pounds of Stone 50.00 5 Aengus
pounds of Stone 100.00 23 Aengus
soiled leggings 35.00 19 Town Hall

Tonight I dreamed once again of the man, only this time I recognised him from the tavern ......

I wonder if we will meet again, or if it is to be only in dreams from now on ....
