An Autumn Fair in Halabor by Soledad	1 Review(s)
Denise	Reviewed Chapter: 6 on 11/23/2008
...and they say that those touched by Elves often have strange fates... Oh, yes, I'm very hopeful for that poor girl, too. This is a wonderfully touching chapter, Soledad. I love the outright decency of Mullion admist all his own problems, including the uncertain fate of his daughter. Life was hard for many, but not all turned miserly and mean with it. It makes quite a contrast with some of those you've described who are better off materially, but worse off in their souls. Funny how it works like that: those with little are almost always generous with it; those with much often have to have it pried out of their cold dead fingers! Author Reply: Yes it's often so, isn't it? Although even there, there are exceptions. Mullion was a character I've wanted to introduce for quite some time. I just never found the right opportunity. But then it occurred to me that the poor girl would need some clothes, and who better to provide them than the old clothes merchant?
