It had been a while since he had a success like this, to think he could actually score two whole silver coins in just one day. He couldn't be happier.
His family was going to be so funny to hear this. His daughter loved it when he made more than usual, since it meant that she was going to get more food.
He loved her little smile.
The biggest wish she had was to get enough money and connections to somehow get into the Blue Rose, that way he could show his daughter what a true world is, one where you don't have to worry about living to the next day.
And while he was still far away from doing so, he had hope, something rare in a place like this.
Walking through a crowd of people, many stared at his smile. It wasn't normal to smile, even more to show it to others. But he just couldn't hold it in.
