A welcome mat adorns the floor at the foot of the door. A rack to hang hats and coats is on the left hand side. Right above, a fan lazy spins about on a hot summer day. A single bulb of light illuminates the small hall that the entrance leads to. The entrance smells of the fresh outdoors.

I am part of a family living in the village.  My family has lived here for generations.  We live to serve the king.  My father was one of the king's royal subjects.
This is my family cottage.  How can I help you? I'm sorry, I thought you were a guest here too. You have great ale! Ah, I'm glad you're enjoying it.  My family has brewed beer for the King for generations.  We take pride in our ale. And it certainly shows - or tastes! Do you get many visitors?
