Waterday, 24th of Goodmonth
Early Morning, Warm, Humid, Buggy
Sneaking up closer to the clearing, Jaxsen continues using the foliage to hide, but can now see a little more of what lies beyond the jungle's edge.
The smell of cooking food is apparently coming from 2 huge tables that are literally overflowing with food and drink. Several dwarves exit the nearby buildings, stopping at the feast to eat their fill or bring heaping plates back to the shacks they exited. The young monk has never seen this much food since he has come to this island, and possibly never before. Items fall from the table to the dirt as the dwarves eat, drink, and talk around their immense feast. If there is some kind of special occasion going on at the moment, the hidden monk cant tell what it might be.
The noise of crying children comes from beyond the breakfast feast, where the monk spots several people of all ages and sizes being marched in a line from the smaller ramshackle huts towards the ramp leading down into the mine. All of these people look dirty, tired, and malnourished, however, none of them are given any food from the feast. Not even the scraps or items that fell from the table are offered up by the gorging dwarves. Jaxsen believes the children among them are crying at the sight of all the food which they aren't allowed to eat.
Action?
Jaxsen 9/19
