A Hospitable Host

The Never Ending Quest - Episode 109286

"Thank you," Astra said in reply to the farmer's offer to sleep in the barn. "That's very kind of you. I did not notice the barn, but the light was failing."

"I'll show you to it. But first, would you like something to eat? It will be plain fare, I'm afraid."

"That's very kind," Astra said once more.

They went down to the kitchen, and the farmer brought out some bread and cheese and filled a tankard with ale. Then he sat down across the table from her as she ate. He did not introduce himself, and Astra decided that she too would prefer to remain anonymous.

Astra decided that this would be a good opportunity to being up something that had been bothering her. "How is it possible to run a farm underground?" she asked. "Where does the light come from to allow you to grow crops? And don't you have any problems with the dragon?"

  1. The farmer answers her questions.
  2. The farmer is evasive.
  3. The farmer seems astonished. "Underground?! Whatever gave you that idea? We're not underground!"
