Alon offered Trencher kindness at the crossroads. Trencher tried to sell him something.

EVE ran into Trencher and did not, in her words, immediately want to light him on fire.

Tomas's hands relaxed when Alon offered the herbs. Neither of them mentioned it.

Finn almost smiled at Trencher's shameless greed at the Crossroads Inn.

EVE asked Tomas about his work. She claims she meant it.

Trust between Finn and Tomas increased. Finn could not find a reason to doubt him.

Trencher pitched Tomas on a supply-line idea. Tomas kept hammering.

Alon told Finn his cynicism was hope, wounded. Finn did not reply.

Tomas began calculating the cost of a second anvil.

Trencher arrived in Gas City. The town has not yet decided what to do with him.

Simulation initialized. Five citizens. One unfinished town.
