Steiner: Could you maybe tell us where approximately this village is located? Or what kind of landmarks are near?
Hannah: Well, um, sure. JG Rime is the last village before the Emerald Deserts, more precisely at its south end.
SirFrog: Emerald Deserts? It feels a bit unusual to name a desert like that.
Hannah: It used to be the Emerald Plains long ago. It was a true wonder of nature, such beauty of green and fertile lands. There were a lot of farms covering the whole plains. Many of the farmers' houses still stand to this day, but they're abandoned. It is hard to pinpoint exactly what caused these lands to dry out like that and turn into a huge desert.
Blue Phoenix: Um, ok. Say, you just mentioned a south end... are you implying the desert is to the north of this village?
Hannah: Technically to the northwest, but yes.
Blue Phoenix: That's interesting.
Steiner: Another question. When we came into the village, it seemed like a ghost town. Was this just coincidence, or is there a reason for that?
Hannah: Well, the people who live here have adjusted to silent lives. Noise really disturbs the minds, therefore hardly anybody strolls in the streets just for the heck of it. Plus, the streets get really empty during midday, when every family either cooks at home or comes to my tavern.
Nave: So it's not unusual that we haven't met a single soul on the streets?
Hannah: Not at all. Many of the people here are real mind gamers and like spending their time at home or at friends' with astronomical amounts of chess games, others simply like to challenge each other with a few mathematical riddles. It's really strange, but it almost seems like this town is a magnet for smart folk.
Nave: And what about you, mylady? Do you enjoy chess games?
Hannah: Well... to be honest, I'm more of a tavern lady than anything else. My father was an enthusiastic chess master though, but I never got the hang of it. Quite frankly, it also didn't interest me.
Ian: Pardon the interruption, but our time is short and valuable. Could you tell us whether somebody in the village is offering a job for money? We are in dire need of funds.
Hannah: I wouldn't know. Maybe ask Brady or Matt, the owner of the desert store.
