The heart of Bramblemead village was never really the castle, which came much later to the party. It wasn’t the town hall. It wasn’t the druid huts. It was the windmill. Grain heaped by the village was brought here and milled down into flour. The flour became bread, pastry and batter, turning village meals into something that helped people to live, rather than simply survive.

Food, becomes a banner around which everyone can gather. To break bread with one’s enemy was a way to settle old scores, and forge new connections. More good has been done over the dinner table, than on any throne. Flour, turned Bramblemead from a settlement, into a thriving village.

Now, the windmill lies dormant and still. The foundations warped by the centuries, despite the magic holding the rot at bay in the ancient timber, and the stone cracking from time. When humanity fell, it was rats and goblins that claimed the heart of the village, though they had no use for the swirling sails.

To the goblins it was a place where food could be hidden. Supplies sealed up from rival tribes. For the rats, it was a restaurant full of goblin supplies that were never well sealed.

The sail no longer turns. But, perhaps, in the fullness of time, this village heart might beat again.

If you're going to master an area, why not Bramblemead? Lovely sights, and slightly less dragon-filled than the rest of Ashenfall. You might have to leapfrog the odd goblin, but we've all done that.
