One Coin, One Song



One coin, one song.

There was always a troublemaker or two who’d ask for the Red Blizzard Saga or Unending Love, but most people would just want the classic bardic tunes. The Dragon Call, Green Hills Under Starlight, The Ballad of Drena and Ednor, stuff like that.

One coin, one song.

And very occasionally, some young novice would pay for her to try out their ‘masterpiece’. She always tried to be kind to them, she remembered when she was young too.

So she didn’t think anything of the chant from the hooded figure.

Most costly one coin she’d ever earn…
