The yard outside the barn is on a small, but well-maintained farm plot. There are enclosures for animals, and a short path leading up to a handsome, cozy farmhouse surrounded by large trees. The sun is warm, and the smell of grass and animal odors hangs in the air.
Chicken coop, Farm

I live in the village that's under the rule of the King. I work in the fields harvesting food for the people. I have a wife and 3 kids I also take care of.
Good heavens, this chicken coop smells horrendous! How can you stand to be in here? The queen wants eggs for breakfast. And the chicken smells better than the dungeon, so here I am! Fair enough. I will help you collect the eggs so you can get out of here quickly. I do have to say it's warm and cozy here. Thank you! This makes me really appreciate harvesting the vegetables. I prefer the fresh air, myself. This is warm but stuffy, and I keep stepping in chicken poop. If you take off your shoes, you can keep them clean! But now my feet are stepping in the smelly, squishy stuff! Then wipe them off with your apron. We have enough eggs anyways. I'm much happier walking through the fields than through this muck. I'm not sure I could be a handmaiden. But you seem very happy. Well, I'm, grateful for what I have. Dragons killed my parents, but I was lucky enough to escape.  I'm so sorry to hear that! I believe I heard about that happening from my sister. I cannot imagine how hard it would have been to see your parents killed. Thank you for the kind words. I lost everything, except for this heirloom.
