<strong>Aeryn Sunlight<br/>In the Market Square of Point Respite<br/>Considering yet one more potential problem</strong><br/><br/>"Thank you, Goodman."  Aeryn paid him generously for the... well, some sort of meat skewered on a stick with more identifiable vegetables and roasted over an open flame.  She bought enough for everybody, of course.  Probably not rat.  She took a careful bite.  No, not rat.  She had tasted rat before.<br/><br/>"So where are the children?"  Her eyes quartered and searched the crowd.  Older children, but no wee ones.  Good sense on the part of the parents not to risk a crossing with babes and wee ones but...  But."  Her brows drew together.  "Women get with child.  It happens all the time, planned or no.  For the poor, anyway.  So where are the babes and toddlers?  For that matter, where were the pregnant women among the wives doing the day's shopping?"<br/><br/>"Caution, reluctance to bring children into a land as wild as this? Part of the answer certainly, but not all of it.  There should be women heavy with child in this market!"<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Spoiler: Click to Show/Hide</div><div class="spoiler_body">Welcome to the Elliquiy Dice Server Healergirl!
