No one has anything in their eyes other than fear and despair. Whatever industry once fueled Fìkh Yǐslo Hirè ’s existence has dried up and the village is drifting down the stream of history as it dries up. On top of this is an unmistakable feeling that Fìkh Yǐslo Hirè is in this condition because there is something terribly wrong with the village. Maybe it’s the way fog blankets the ground, but only in the connors of places. Maybe it’s the vermin scuttling between shadows in the corner of your eyes. Perhaps it’s the overcast sky which seemed to creep out of nowhere, or the distant howling of wolves. Maybe it’s all of those things together, or perhaps it's the way these elements combine which makes you worry someone might stab you in a dark ally for your boots. It’s not filthy, or dark, but the smiles seem strained, the locals seem to glare daggers in eachothers backs a little too much, and everyone is armed at all times. You may want to keep an eye on your valuables, and make sure you don’t wind up in any position of power. Regardless, you do not feel it would be wise to remain in Fìkh Yǐslo Hirè long.
