Stunted and gnarled fruit trees are lined in rows. The trees have thick bases and are clearly very old but have not produced any fruit for a long time, yet they stubbornly cling to life. Unpruned, their branches stick out at all angles making it hard for a person to traverse the orchard and frequently these branches grab the loose clothing of any visitor. Wind moan through the trunks while dead leaves slowly tumble along the ground.
Haunted Orchard, Farm
visitor
thief
I live alone in a tent in the woods. I steal food from the townspeople and coal from the blacksmith. The village police can not find me to put me in jail.
Get away from  me! Ahhhhh! A thief! In this frightening woods! God help me! Stop screaming and I won't hurt you. No, no, please don't hurt me, I won't make a sound. Please just leave me alone If you help me out of the haunted orchard. I won't hurt you. You're just as lost as I am, huh? What brings you to this orchard then? I'm looking for food. Ha ha! Food! You filthy peasant! Looking for food like a commoner. If only you knew the King like I do Who would want to know the king? Wretched thief! Don't you dare insult my good friend the King! He isn't a good person. And you think you are any better?
