Farmer Rohan leaned on his shovel as the sky brightened above his weathered brow. He shivered as a chilled breeze scythed through his wools but there was warmth in his heart as he thought of the troubles of yesteryear. Darknesses and evils were abound upon Freehold and the Hinterlands. But the heroes of Freehold, men and women of endless resolve and boundless power, had beaten back the shadows of the night and the horrors of death. They came from every corner of Midworld and used powers and skills inconceivable to the common folk.
Men such as Rohan knew that the harvest would be good and strong this year. The roots dug deep, weathering the shadows, as well as the people of Freehold had ever done. T'was a wonder and a miracle, but just as welcome as the thought of feeding his family and bringing the surplus to market. While paltry troubles still weighed upon his soul, Farmer Rohan possessed no small measure of contentment. A thin smile stretched his dry lips as the golden sun rose from behind black mountains. For the moment, peace reigned upon the land.
