three wayside stories

One: The Sparrow Entrepreneurs




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.

The vandal likes to change the rules of the game, it seems to me, but the glazier is creative in meeting the challenge.
