    Fien fixed her eyes on the trail ahead as her wagon lumbered along. Going from place to place is what she did, she was a gypsy of sorts but in reality Fien was a tinker, a peddler just like her father before her, and his father before him. If people needed things fixed, she could do it. If they needed a new kettle or shovel,www.onedoor.cc she could sell them one or offer a fair trade. She usually traded in simple, inexpensive things but sometimes not. She had worked hard to cobble together a good, simple life and she was respected throughout the valley. She would carry news of happenings from village to vil...iJQone door

To me, it was just Nanna’s House – a rambling building built on a hill, with a whole wing preserved as it used to be in bygone times. There was just one room that was out of bounds – a room that was said to be haunted. This room was always cool in summer, and warm in winter.
