Clear as Folk by Beryl O'Laffs

It is a truth locally acknowledged that there is no place more peaceful, tranquil, and lush than Quill, nor people as friendly, helpful, and oblivious as Quillians.

And if you want to live a full life, avoiding the pitfalls others have fallen into in the past, you ought to listen to the wisdom of these honest folk.

Wherever you go in this fair land, you will come across vital pieces of knowledge scrawled on bits of weatherproof paper left behind by some generous soul.

Whether they're about how to abide by laws and customs, make the best of nature's bounty, or face some of the dark perils that lurk beneath the surface, you're sure to find them all helpful.

Well, most of them.

Of course, some knowledge isn't written on any scrap or tome, and you'll only find it on the tongues of people you meet.

Not literally, of course. But become friendly enough with such sages, and those tongues are bound to loosen.

Be sure to collect each saying in your journal, so you can refer to it often.

And there's much you can learn yourself from things you find in the world if you study them carefully, whether bird, beast, flower or anything else.

So go out, learn, and explore. As the old proverb says: "You can't lead a horse to water because they're extinct."
