I do feel for The Barn, but Gennys is a nice guy, and there's another families' plans and dreams riding on him as well. I like that we're getting both sides of the whole situation. It's never cut and dried, good vs. bad, in real life, and I really appreciate that you bring it out in your stories, too. Author Reply: Thanks. Sometimes, life is simply unjust, and in order for good people to have a better fate, other good people have to suffer. But "The Barn" is still in business at the time of Halabor's destruction, so Clemow & Co have apparently struggled on reasonably well. | |

Glad to have met the Ale-Wife! What an interesting and likable lady. She has a beautiful daughter, too. Fourteen or fifteen? Way too young to marry! But I guess that to secure your child's future, even when so young, was desirable in those days. Author Reply: Fourteen... which was a fairly normal age for a girl to marry in the Middle Ages. After all, a women - assumed she survived childbirth - was, around the age of 30, usually widowed, remarried and a grandmother already. | |
