Chapter XI: Baking bread

I said goodbye to Unicorn Phantom and continued my path to Willie. When I arrived at Willie’s I already saw Willie standing outside. He was cutting wheat, with a scythe, and making bunches of it. He told me that we would need them later for the bread. I offered him my helping hand, but he said he was fine. I washed myself and when I was done I helped Willie with carrying the bunches of wheat inside, to the mill. We putted the wheat between the millstones and then we took breakfast. Willie told me that it could take a while before the bunches where moulded enough. As Willie seems to do every day; we ate baguette, or like he calls it, bread.

After we were finished eating I went to see to the wheat and I saw that it was moulded into floor. We took out the floor and putted it into a bucket. Willie told me the next step was to mingle it with water. The mixed water and floor, dough, was what we needed to bake. We took the lumps of dough and putted them in the oven and after twenty minutes the baguettes where ready.

I thanked Willie for teaching me how to bake bread and he gave me two to take home with me. I told him I was sleeping at Obi’s and eh told me that there were no houses for sale on this island. I informed more to the island, and he told me this island was called Rookgaard. He also told me that if I became strong enough I could go to the big island with many cities, and he said the real adventure started there. I asked him how I knew I was strong enough and he said I would notice, I asked him where I had to go when I was strong enough and he told me to get back to him about that question when I was in the need to know it. I wondered why he was still on Rookgaard, and he told me he was cursed to stay there because of past misbehaviour.
