The small village was situated among the mountain peaks.
It guarded the pass from east to west, but not on purpose. It was simply the
best spot for a village. There was a convenient source of water and the land
could be terraced for farming.
The villagers lived there in peace. While it was the only
pass through the mountains for miles, it wasn’t an important one and people
left the villagers to themselves.
For their part, the villagers were happy to be left
alone. They lived simple lives, working in the fields and taking their ease
with homemade wine.
