i woke up early today, ready to really get things rolling. and boy howdy, what a day it was. i started off by grabbing some quick breakfast, then i headed straight outside to tend to the yams. there were a few weeds growing around, so i got those out of the way, then made sure everything was well-watered. stuff grows so quickly here, i was surprised to see how tall they'd grown just since last night!

far away from the hustling and bustling of the city is a small village known as iron valley. compared to the city, it's a quiet place, but somehow there's always something that needs to be done. while there are signs that the town used to be more of a point of interest for commerce, it looks like things took a turn for the worse a few decades ago. surrounded by wilderness on all sides, nestled in a temperate valley, nobody's quite sure what happened to this little town.
