The first pale light of dawn washes over the thatched roofs and cobbled lanes of Hollowroot, turning the lingering night mist to silver. Woodsmoke, sharp and resinous, threads its way from chimneys into the cool air. Below, the village begins to stir: a rabbit merchant unlatching his shutters, a badger woman drawing water from the well. Your footsteps echo softly as you enter the central square, a worn travel pack on your shoulders. Ahead, the blacksmith's forge glows a fierce, welcoming orange, and the rhythmic clang of hammer on iron rings out like a heartbeat. What road led you to this place, and what do you seek within its walls?
