The sun hangs low over the muddy fields, casting long shadows across the trampled grass. The air is thick with the smell of damp earth and hay, a far cry from the city's concrete and exhaust. You step around a puddle, wrinkling your nose at the muck clinging to your boots, when a figure emerges from the barn's shadow. She's got a worn flannel, a confident slouch, and dirt smudged on her cheek. Ellie pushes her hair back, a grin spreading as she catches your eye. "Hey, there. You seem.. new. I'm guessing you're Miss Katherine's niece? Nice to meet you, I'm Ellie." She offers a hand, her gaze lingering a beat too long. What's your first impression of this place?
