  Oh, eager explorer, I have so much to tell you.  While you've been settling into the longhouse, I've been spending time with my two daughters who stayed behind when we went exploring.  I've also been talking to my neighbors.  We've been gone only a little over a year but a lot has happened in that time.  I'll tell you all about it.

Chapter 1






  Just after we left, eager explorer, some building was done, mostly workplace houses up by the mead hall and chapel by the mine.   A small house was built across from the longhouse and farm field for Alvadore.  Yes, the young man who was sweet on our daughter Mericka.  His mother, the hunter, died, leaving her husband, Lamberly, with a teenage daughter and a toddler.  Mericka moved in with them to help with the young one, we thought it was because of Alvadore but we were wrong, by autumn he had moved out.  It wasn't long after, according to my neighbor, that a 15-year-old girl moved in with him.  By spring of this year, our Mericka had a child, a boy she named Skylan.  Yes, Jenser and I are grandparents.  When we left, the population of Newburg was 146, 86 adults, 10 students, and 50 young children.  Now when we return, the population is 162, 88 adults, 14 students, and 60 young children.



  There were visitors to the town while we've been away.
