Barul din Kirkwall avea cinci mese și un foc. Polly s-a așezat lângă căldură. „Îmi puteți aduce meniul?”, a întrebat ea. Pe listă erau doar câteva feluri.
„Îmi puteți recomanda un fel bun?” Proprietara era un stârc. A spus turta de bere. Bere este un orz cultivat aici de sute de ani, nu este băutura. Orzul bere crește repede, într-o vară scurtă.
„Aveți opțiuni vegetariene?”, a întrebat Polly. Stârcul a arătat spre același rând. Turtă, unt și brânză moale.
„Ne puteți aduce nota, vă rog?”, a spus Polly. Stârcul și-a luat timpul, ceea ce este un semn bun. Afară, vântul era aproape calm. Polly a urcat spre catedrala roșie.
That's the story.
