Kijustsu Anei Village, Homare-Jima, Tokuno, Chesapeake (PaxLair Times) – July 31, 2010 – by Ashlynn — Today I bring to you the first of an irregular feature aimed at highlighting some of the more interesting places to be found throughout the realm. It seems the folk of Sosaria are a mixed bunch and many are owners of some fine or odd establishments. In my travels, I have come across all kinds of buildings including taverns, temples, towers and tombs. And these are just the mundane.
Mr Clean’s Lemon Farm is one such interesting establishment. Located within Kijustsu Anei Village, next to the PaxOku Tea House, it specialises in growing lemons as you’d expect. It wouldn’t be much of a lemon farm if it grew limes, afterall. Or oranges for that matter.
I spoke at length with the owner, a fine fellow, who lived at the estate with a detective and a tinker. He explained in a somewhat quirky manner that he endeavoured to provide the realm with the finest lemons to be found anywhere, and that his wares were sold far and wide.
But his mission was not without challenges it seemed. Thieves were a problem at the lemon farm, climbing over the iron fence and stealing barrels of lemons ready for transport. Where these lemons were later sold is anyones guess, but of the identity of the guilty party, there has always been little in the way of clues. Perhaps they are being hoarded for sale at some time in the distant future, arcane magic used to prevent them from spoiling. I can only speculate.
Still, if you need large numbers of fine tasting lemons, I recommend the farm. And let us hope the Queen does not decide to levy a heavy tax upon them.
