Extend the Story - Add a Room

It is good to see again the light of day! Isn't it? Well now, the bad news; in this place and time the rule is 'work for your charity', which means if you receive some charity; as being allowed to sleep, you must work for your benefactor; in this case the Temple...

Oh how wonderful slave-master relationships have started this way! :) But fear not, all the House of the Gods requires is some cleaning until noon, then you are free to go. And this include some breakfast, which means lentils with a boiled egg.

You eat, seated cross-legged on the floor, at one corner, as away as possible from the two men that shared this room with you for the night. Creeping towards you comes a little bug; but when is about to reach your naked feet, it is wise enough to stop and turn around quickly. No, you are not clean this room; nobody really cares about the place where 'drunkards' and 'mice kids' sleep; you have the honor to polish the great Athuraha'i statue... Congrats!

Would you wait for a caravan to - hopefully- employ you?
