Harvest Moon: The Story of Jack's Life
This is my story of Jack's life in Mineral Town. Welcome to the show! My name is Noko,
and I'll be your host for the evening! This story is how Jack came to Mineral Town, and how he
found love, as well as a family. With whom who may ask? That is for me to know and for you to
find out! Hopefully, you will like the story enough for you to drop me a review. Thanks for
listening to me ramble, and now for the factory-produced disclaimer.

Chapter 1: Prologue
The mayor walked onto the desolate farm. Thomas shook his head and thought about what
would happen to the farm without the old man to take care of it. Before he had died, Moon Ranch
had two cows, three sheep, and four chickens. Not to mention the rows and rows of turnips, corn,
tomatoes, onions, and even a few pineapples. The animals and remaining vegetables were sold off
to cover the costs of the funeral. Thomas didn't know what would happen to the farm, and the
community. The town depended on the farm for its' main exports. The entire town's economy
depended on Moon Ranch. With no one to take over, Thomas' job would become much harder.
Thomas walked back from the farm to his house. It was the 27th of Winter, and he had to
get the New Year's festival's in order. He ended up stopping at the bar for a drink, though, and
this was unusual because he normally doesn't drink.
"Hi, Thomas! Don't usually see you in here. What can I get you?" Doug, the barkeeper
asked.
"Oh, hi Doug, I guess I'll take a glass of beer." Thomas replied.
"You're still thinking about what to do with the farm, huh? I sure do miss the old man.
He was always so thoughtful. Used to bring me food to make my lunch specials with. He probably
grew the best corn I've ever tasted. What are you going to do with the farm?"
"I guess I'll have to think of something. Someone brought up letting a company build a
strip mall on the property, but that farm has been in the same family for years. I'd hate to see
it destroyed. But if I can't find someone who can manage it, I might not have a choice."
"I remember a relative of his who came here about 15 years ago or so. A little boy,
probably around seven or eight. Maybe it was his grandson! He would be at least 23 by now! Maybe
he would want the farm?"
"Really, you remember a grandson?" Thomas' hoped were really high now. Maybe he could set things
right! "Now I just have to find out where this grandson lives!"
"I thought it was somewhere in New York where the kid was from. You could probably check
the old man's house for an address." Doug said.
" I think I will! I sure hope the kid will want the farm, even if he is a city slicker.
Well, I guess I'll go check for an address. See you later!"
And with that Thomas paid for his drink, and left. He sure hoped that he would be able to
find an address of this kid!
