Lame goat
Jenny: Feather, are those straw figures in your hands? That’s odd. You and Isami don’t know anything about Lughnasadh. Hm, I helped Jim to make this goose. I see, he must have dropped it while “fighting” with Jack. Well, and where is my cute goat? Let’s search for it together, while the bread is cooling.
Task: Find a straw goat in the kitchen. You will not find the item Immediately.
Jenny: But I haven’t explained to you what got into brothers! There’s a ritual connected to that day. Two companies meet and hold fisticuffs. There are different habits in every part of the country. For example, in the south of Scotland the herdsmen from different parishes were competing. They were fighting with cudgels, not their bare hands.
Jenny: They were trying to not hurt each other. The hits were mostly aimed at the sticks. There was a goal — to remove the rival’s flag from the top of a handmade tower and replace it with their own. When everything was finished, the herdsmen were shaking hands and making peace.
Jenny bites her lip.
Jenny: And I was careless enough to tell the same story in the presence of Jim and Jack. I didn’t think they would start fighting just lake that! They were probably supported by others too, yes?
You completed the task and received some points of freedom and some tokens.
Tan: Don’t blame yourself, Jenny, everything is fine. The brothers have a fiery surname, so it will be good for them to bring all their disagreements to the surface. Maybe they’ll stop picking on each other for some time. And now please tell me what are those little straw dolls?
