O que está de pé aqui

THE WINTER TENT — on the low knoll. House-sized, about 6 m. Turf, stone. On the ground.
"A broad turf pavilion guyed low against the wind with a ringed hearth pit inside"
A roof of stone atop the top: pitched low to shed rain and heavy gusts. A hearth of stone inside the centre: set with flat stones to hold the embers through the night. A doorway of turf facing the south: fitted with a heavy latch on the leeward side. A storage rack of turf along the north side, hung with dry provisions, cordage, and spare gear.
Of this land: turf, stone.

THE WAY SHRINE — beside the north hill. Small, about 4 m. Turf, slate, bronze. On the ground.
"A quiet turf enclosure with a carved post and a sheltered offering shelf"
An altar stone of turf inside the centre: worn smooth by salt air and rain. A lantern hook of bronze at the front: lit at dusk when travellers are abroad.
Of this land: turf. Of the region: slate, bronze.

A história, como Elara Thorne conta

Do lugar

• Far Basin was laid out by Elara Thorne, who marked the low knoll first and set the winter tent to face out of the prevailing weather.
• Late autumn, the first year of Kotilampi: a long thunderstorm crossed the country, and every place for a day's walk around heard it. (heard in autumn) tirada da crônica

Do povo

• They keep a dry stack of fuel beside the winter tent and share the first meal at the hearth with any traveller who crosses the low knoll. (heard when a people lives here)
• Before winter sets in they check the lashings and stones of the way shrine and sing the names of the first four who came. (heard when a people lives here)
