1st Tribute



This is a plot event that always occurs on Day 7, Afternoon. It is the first in a series of events that will occur weekly, and require the family to gather certain materials in certain quantities and give them over as tribute. For this tribute, the family needs 10 Wood. If you want to avoid increasing Björn's Animosity level, you need 15 Wood instead.

''It's been five days since Björn raided the camp and asked for his tribute. Everyone was growing nervous from the wait.''

...

No one's coming. We may be lucky after all? They have forgotten about us?

... Let's wait a bit more before getting our hopes up.

They waited in silence for a whole hour, their hearts racing, when...

Look! Someone's coming!

''They saw a scruffy man riding a donkey slowly advancing toward their camp. The mule was loaded with big heavy baskets, making it walk more slowly than one could think possible. The man on the mule was wearing somewhat fancy linen clothes, but ruined by the dirt and a puzzling sense of bad taste.''

Coming! Coming! Say hello to your new best friend   Elof's the name, my little ponies.

("Friend"?...)

("Little"?...)

("Ponies"?...)

What? You lost your tongue? Björn cut it out already? BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!

He continued laughing for a while, almost choking on his own joke.

Haaaaaaa... You're too funny. I think we'll get along fine my little birdies. But well... All good things must come to an end. Sooooooo... What did master tell me again? Errrrrrrrrh... 15 Wood, that's it? Okayyyyy, put them here please, I'll-...

No, no, no. Björn told us to gather 10 Wood. No more, no less.

10 Wood??? You SURE?

Yes.

Hmmrngh, weird. He must have forgotten to tell you about MY share!  

Your share?

If you give me a little extra for mah trouble, I'll make it worth to you my little duckies.

Sooooooo... It's time to say goodbye to my little kittens. NEXT GIFT TO OUR GREAT MASTER BJÖRN, PRAISED BE THY NAME! We want 8 Potable Water in 7 days. No more, no less! (He whispered) But don't forget my share.   Farewell my little ponies! We may never meet again. Hehe.

''And then he slowly went back to the forest from where he came. You clearly hear farting sounds in the distance.''

I hate this man.

I hate this man's smell.

("Ponies"?...)
