You can have a shopping cart, but you must pay to rent them.

The rent is cheap though: a few crumbs of bread or bits of cracker will buy you several hours.

Don't forget to pay the ones who live below, too:

Two: The Stream Thorns

In winter, this stream grows giant thorns. They make good swords, I'm told: the blood of those they strike congeals into rubies and garnets.

Three: The Glazier and the Vandal

The glazier and the vandal play a game here. No one else knows the rules, except that when the glazier scores, a window pane appears, and when the vandal scores, a window pane disappears.

window, no window

[livejournal.com profile] zyzyly, I know this is the wrong place to say it, but I have really adored your retrospective photos of the year. I'll have to go over and tell you (or, in some cases, tell you again) the ones I really like.
