A Place by the Fire

(IS🎭) The small market town of Brakenfen sits nestled in the curve of the Low River. The people there work hard, raise their families and take their lives one day at a time. The passing time is marked by chapel Sundays and the slow turning of the seasons. The reeve has declared that, come winter, the parish's unclaimed children will be sent down-river to the city workhouse. You just so happen to be one of those unclaimed children. An orphan with no family to speak of. As the last of the chill thaws into spring proper you have one goal: Find yourself a family to claim you before winter arrives. The families of Brakenfern are varied in dispostion and occupation both. What is virture to one is vice for another. You must learn to navigate the tangled web of connections between households and to appeal to their convictions if you have any hope of being adopted. But, if you're lucky, you'll endear your way into a caring new family. Or at least an arrangement that will keep you from the workhouse. *** Inner Self by @LewdLeah is used.
