Men! Women all! I beg your attention a moment. A gentleman has brought it to my attention that food stores are uncertain in this city and we have need for more permanent sustenance than what we have been given.

But there has been neglect of the planting season. We missed winter and spring will soon be upon us. I call to work now any able bodied men and women to plow the fields with me so we may begin the spring planting. Tuor shall lead us, he is skilled in farming and will instruct you on the work if necessary.

If there are farmers, Applejack and kin, I bid you come with me so that we might seek the best soil for our work before we begin.

Craftsman Curufin, put your prejudice aside and make the tools for our trade if we find none.

Aikanáro, come with me to speak with the trees so we might decide the nature of the seasons as they tell it.

	I'm telling you there's no one there, if it wasn't meant for us the door to the place never would have shown up. Right or wrong I'm taking a party through to collect supplies. I'd appreciate it if you stood aside and I'm trying very hard to keep my temper here. Some of the others around here know I can be hotheaded. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Do as you will. Obviously there is no law here and I cannot stop you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Nay, you are not. I do not say it to cater to you or your emotion. I know you to be fair and wise. I know also that this place is lawless and run by men and women who do not understand what it means to rule a kingdom. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	And yet these are the same people who sought to put a government in place. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	And could find no middle ground. Which is telling. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Very telling. But it is good that they did not; they have not the wisdom to lead. They are brigands. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	And still their attempt must be appreciated. Or at least noted. Argue not with them though, I find that so many voices only wish to hear their own opinions and cannot be taken in civil conversation. When it descends to half empty threats you know well you have lost their ear, if ever you had it to begin with. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Aye, Uncle, you are wise. I no longer speak with them. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	If you are unable to maintain your calm I might suggest you depart from the conversation, sir. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You're absolutely correct, thank you for the advice. (Reply to this) (Parent)
