“Have you heard? Miss Baker wants to make Haritha her apprentice to the bakery. She asked that serving girl Briony to work for her. “
“Girl seems like a hard worker. Saw the two of them walking home together last night. Nice girls.”
“There is this healer about, Eldryssa. She seems to be friends with Owena because she and another man went to the bakery together after visiting in the Pony.”
“Didn't’t like the look of that man though.”
“Wouldn't’t be the first time Miss Baker is too kind to outsiders. You wont believe what I overheard her Pa saying to the Butcher….”
“There was a black horse stolen from behind the Pony.”
“More likely a drunkard forgot to tie up their horse properly.”
“Is the Sweetshop moving? I heard someone say it was moving?”
“Not if Mrs. Baker and Mr. Baker have anything to say about it. They have always given their girl independence but… there is a line, you know?”
“Watcher Timothie made at least two arrests in The Pony today! It was so exciting to see that man walking those criminals down to the jail!”
“He is so brave! And Handsome! Think he will notice me if I wear my yellow dress?”
“Were you at the trial of that man?”
“No! There are always trials going on and I don’t need to concern myself with the filth of this town.”
“So you don’t want to know what happened?
“I didn't’t say that. Tell me everything.”
“I heard Miss Baker was sleeping at the Fenflower farm?
“I heard she was sleeping at Dernwynn ‘s home.”
“I heard she was sleeping with Eordion and Dani.”
“I heard she hired a guard named Pahl.”
“I heard her lover went north so she doesn't’t know where to go.”
“I think she is still staying at the bakery and you all are wrong!”
“I’m heading over to the Sweetshop to give Miss Baker some soup. Such a dear, such hard days.”
“She has been giving the woodworkers of the town lots of business to do her remodeling. And the people of that shelter have been all over helping.”
“You know it is not just remodeling right?”
“I don’t want to know! I have to sleep at night! Keep your thoughts to yourself and bring her that soup!”
“So many people were at the bakery helping clean!”
“Yes… but do you know who was not there?”
“Tells you something.”
"I heard there was a fire at the west gate!"
"People need to watch there children better!"
“I went to find Miss Owena. I couldn’t find her, do you know where she is?”
“Oh, I am sure she is fine.”
