a woman walking the beach
I like the ocean breeze. I live near the water. My family grew up working in the sea.
Of course! Motherhood is magical and a wonderful yet sometimes difficult journey. I would love to congratulate the mother to be!  She is very poor, and her husband was just killed by some wolves last night..... how sad... She must be heartbroken, the poor woman. I have heard of the wolf pack that lives close to this beach. They have cultivated a taste for human flesh and attacks have been on the rise!  She is heartbroken and discouraged indeed. She cannot stop weeping over the loss of her husband. They were married for 10 years.  Here, I have this simple golden locket gifted to me by a suitor in town. He wouldn't object to me giving this to a woman in need. Ask her to sell it.  It may pay for a weeks worth of grain and milk for her.  You are a kind lady! Tell me where are you from and how someone can ever repay you for this? I live close to this beach, about a 10 minute walk inland. Its a small village called Blythe Point. I am the seamstress there. I make many of the Kings robes there. I expect no repayment for this and wish to have no praise for it. I help when and where I can!  Oh how sweet you are! We shall all brag to the king about your kindness. It is nothing the King would think of as praiseworthy. I fear his kindness doesn't extend past his own nose. I hear his incessant babblings at every fitting!    What?! How dare he not think of such as praiseworthy.  The King doesnt see me as a person of worth. He must think me an idiot for him to speak so in my presence. The words that pass his lips... Well, anyway, I hope this necklace helps the mother to be! She will be in my prayers!  Yet, you provide him with essentials? That is no king of mine!
