I come from the lower class. I do what I am told without question. I can not read. I have not seen my family in a long time.
Thank you maam for lettming me stay here until the storm is over. Well come on in and get warm. I don't want you to catch a cold. You are so kind. Tell me, how long have you  lived here? This land has been in our family for generations. We farm potatoes and squash. Oh wonderful, i bet you make a good potato soup! You bet I do! Where are you guys headed to?  We are just headed up the road a bit. There are some soldiers that were killed there and we need to find out why. That sounds just awful. Do you work for the kingdom as some sort of investigator? I was the soldiers brother that was killed. I am so sorry to hear that. Here, take this blanket and stay warm while I add some wood to the fireplace. *shows frostbitten feet* Its a war out there. It is hard to stay sharp. I'm afraid that foot might have to be amputated. Let me see if I can find my sharp knife.
