Life of the main character (farmer): Life was hard, if a man didnt have enough land. One had to rise early in the morning to start working on their fields, and stayed out late taking care of the crops. Sometimes hardships arrived, diseases that spread to animals, not enough food to feed the farm animals, not enough water (drought), animals that eat plants (for example: locusts, grasshopper, etc), and unusual weather. Many people in the area also farmed, and sometimes, we would help each other out, by lending cows, horses, or even working side by side in fields. Selling the food was equally hard though, for after collecting the harvest, one usually had to bear the burden of bringing the crops from faraway fields to cities. Along the way, there may be bandits, or other dangerous things. On arriving to a town or city, you had to go through guards-posts and pay to bring your load in. Selling was a different matter, whether a person would buy your products or not. In the end, you had to pack up whatever you didn't sell, and leave to start the cycle again.
