Tonight was way too cold to stay outside but at least it's getting warmer. Thank Goddess, I didn't know how much more winter I could take; I feel like I'm still starving from the months of barely any food. Anyway, I'm staying in this inn in this town called Forgot-Me-Not Valley. I'm just passing through for a night, I'm heading for Flowerbud Village. Apparently I've got an uncle who runs a vineyard there, maybe he'll give me a job. After paying for my room, I don't have any money left. At least, there's complimentary breakfast in the morning. Cain is resting on a tree branch right outside of my hotel window. Animals aren't allowed in, which is understandable. Cain is a rather large hawk that needs room to spread out his wings and not knock things over. I met another wanderer. Her name is Nami and she's been staying in this inn for a while. We spoke for a bit earlier, she seems pretty cool. She's quiet, I like quiet. Well, I guess that's all I have to write for tonight.
A/N: Most of my chapters will probably be little drabbles like this. Cliff is one of my favorite Harvest Moon characters and I find him so interesting and mysterious, particularly the 64 version of him, so this will be fun to write!
