[Lunatia's resident centaur lady is back on screen, starting out her post with her customary bow and smile.]

Hello, everyone! It's been a while since my last "post", I feel like there's probably so many new people here now...

My name is Konoha... If you don't know me yet, I'm a jinba... Or a "centaur" if you want! ... I'm from Tateyama in Japan, but lots of people say I'm from the past or that jinba don't exist, so I guess that's not very helpful? Anyway-

[She twirls the camera around, giving a panoramic view of the bucolic Tsurugi Farmstead and a large palomino centaur working in one of the fields before coming back to her face after she accidentally focuses on her front hooves.]


My husband and I run Tsurugi Farmstead in the Greatmoon Groves, and we're hoping to hire a few more extra hands to help out during harvests and planting! Which, um... Happens way more than I'm used to in my world, so...

[No one point out why that might be...]

You don't have to have experience farming, but you do need to be willing to work hard. It's not easy to work the earth, you know! It wouldn't be an every day sort of job, just a few days here and there throughout the month, but we pay in chroma money at the end of each day. And on days you work, you can take home a small basket of the harvest for yourself, and I'll provide lunch for free!

I guess I should use this chance to say that we also deliver, if you're looking for fresh vegetables and rice for yourself or your own business! Or you can find us on weekends at the green market... Wait, I feel like I'm forgetting something... Oh!

[As if remembering, she pulls out a piece of paper from the bear pelt tied around her "waist", checking it with a squint. Right-]

Also, my neighbors said I should mention that everything we grow here is... "organic". Apparently that's popular!

Thank you for your time, everyone! If you want to sign up for work or you have any questions, I'll answer you here, okay? And if you know where I can find a priest or priestess to bless the rice fields before planting, let me know, please!

Never worked on a farm before, but wouldn't mind helping out... if you still need a hand.

[Plus, free food? Rey can never turn down free food.]

[lumberlady]

Hi, Rey!

[greetings first!]

Really? I actually thought about asking you, since you're so strong for a human [wait] shaped person, but I thought you must already have a job!

[circumitus]

Well, actually...

[Oof.]

Don't have a job. Mostly just do short-time work whenever it's needed, but not all of those have gone well.

[lumberlady]

Oh, well in that case... I guess this is kind of "regular short-time" and not "full time" but- Can I count you in?

[circumitus]

Sure, why not.

What type of work needs to be done, exactly? Never done farming shit before, but can do heavy lifting, stuff like that.

[lumberlady]

Basically everything could use an extra pair of hands when it's harvest or planting season... If you want to start with just strength things, maybe you could take over some of our deliveries?

[circumitus]

[Rey just hmm's.]

Doing deliveries doesn't sound so bad...

[It might get her to see people more. An improvement to her usual habit of holing herself up in nature.]

[lumberlady]

It's either that, or just harvesting? It's mostly just pulling things out the earth, you don't need much experience for that part.

[circumitus]

Oh, well. Can do that as well, sure.

[lumberlady]

Whichever you're most comfortable with!

[circumitus]

[Options! What do?!]

Deliveries would be good, starting out. Got to know the layout of the city pretty well.

[lumberlady]

In that case... deliveries! You'll be a big help. The less Gonta has to go into the city, the happier he is!
