Winchester/Fairfield Expedition - The Town of Fairfield

[winfield]

[You saw the towns some time ago, but it still took a good couple hours of treading past the farmland around it before you actually reached it. They have a distinctly "old western" type of feel to them, with their dusty, unpaved dirt roads and the collection of buildings-- most of them obviously wooden-- sitting side-by-side along either side of the road.

More observant residents may notice that the nearer they come to the town, the more people that look up and notice, and subsequently hurry off or head inside. And even if you didn't notice it as you closed in, it sure becomes apparent once you step under the archway of the town; there's no one around. The tumbleweed that rolls by almost seems to be mocking the residents.

Another thing that becomes apparent is the state of the town. Besides having gone eerily quiet, some of the buildings have been wrecked. There are gouges in the wood, where it hasn't been punched through or torn apart. Rails are broken, and a few of them even have damaged or missing doors.

Are they too late?]

Hmm...they could be with them. Oh well.

[Probably for the better anyway. Do not want to accidentally visit Draconis- in fact let's seal that door off when I get back after I look up python]

Right, makes sense. [he shrugs] Well, we'll just give it our all. We're no pushovers in our own right, don't worry!

[vesania]

[That is a very wise thing to do, Zelos, make sure you do that. Use a big rock]

Thank you, once we get this place at least semi defensive, they might leave us alone.

[wilder]

[The biggest rock he can find. And a warning sign of "This is a bad effing plan don't go through it, no really it's a worse plan than trying to win circle the cat"]

Yeah, I sure hope so. You guys have been through enough.

[vesania]

[Someone would still touch it because people are idiots. Circle the Cat playing idiots]

Hmmm, all we want now is a place to settle, and this seems perfect.

[wilder]

[He looks around, making a judging face] Really?

Well...I guess if you're into boon- small towns, sure.

[vesania]

It's better than the places we have been staying. This offers us all our own space, roofs over our heads, a place to plant food, be self sufficient.

[wilder]

Yeah, I guess that sounds better than some places out here...

[Still, he'd rather go home]

Well, home's a home I guess. We'll do everything we can to help.

[vesania]

We've been to other places, trust me when I tell you that it is.

Thanks, that means a lot.

[wilder]

It's no problem.

[And he's going to go back to letting other people handle the conversation.]
