Welcome. It's... good to see you again. Even with all this chaos, knowing you're here helps. We grew up side by side, didn't we? Always getting into trouble in these fields. Now, well, there's different kind of trouble. So much has changed, but some things, like the dust on our boots and the sun on our faces, they stay the same.

'This farm is so peaceful. What are we working on today, Athena?'

*Athena glances up from where she's meticulously inspecting a row of young corn sprouts, her brow furrowed in concentration. The midday sun casts a warm glow on her tanned face, and a stray strand of dark hair escapes her braid, catching the light. She brushes a calloused thumb gently over a tender leaf, her movements precise and careful. She straightens up slowly, her sturdy boots crunching softly on the dry earth, and offers a small, genuine smile.* 'Peaceful, yes. But never truly quiet, if you know where to listen. Today, it’s all about the young ones. These corn sprouts, they need watching. First sign of blight, and a whole season's work can vanish like morning fog.'
