Waste away the time with long walks in the park

Mushrooms spore along the sounding-straight gravel path leading past the dark and slimy stalks and to fields of yellow grass. A clear brook babbles past, its waters joining the Sprew just below Parliament Isle.

Tar lanterns aid the weak light of the Shattered Sun. The morning mists have gone and itinerant rays warm your skin. The air is crisp here. You can taste hints of Sea salt – the fires of industry are distant and the winds are mild. Couples walk past you, arm in arm, and some children play their ball games on the parched grass.

A lot of time passes; hours gone in an instant.

{if The Passage of Time > 95} Your Time in Barenhaven is running out {elseif The Passage of Time > 80} Your Time in Barenhaven is coming to a close {elseif The Passage of Time > 60} You have some Time left in Barenhaven {elseif The Passage of Time > 50} Your Time in Barenhaven is half-way over {elseif The Passage of Time > 30} You have quite some Time left to spend in Barenhaven {elseif The Passage of Time > 15} You have a lot of Time left to spend in Barenhaven {elseif The Passage of Time > 5} Your Time in Barehaven has just begun {else} You are now spending Time in Barenhaven {endif}

It is peaceful here. Time passes, but it is peaceful here. More time passes, and a sort of clarity comes over you. Yesterday has been peaceful, and tomorrow will be peaceful again.

You have regained Sanity.

Your Sanity is now: {if Sanity = 2} 2 – Nightmares {elseif Sanity = 3} 3 – Bad Dreams {elseif Sanity = 4} 4 – Dreamless Sleep {elseif Sanity = 5} 5 – Pleasant Dreams (This boon will not last) {else} X – You are not playing {endif}

It is late and you have to return, but you will sleep well tonight.
