Today I'd like to share a small vignette I created to flesh out storytime...Nothing impressive from a building perspective, but I intend to use it as an introduction and gradually populate and build the village. I don't really know if this topic is more suitable for the "Town" forum or the "Special Themes" one. I created it here because despite being related to the everyday life of a LEGO town, I thought it felt a little bit odd compared to the great buildings and vehicles that populate the "Town" forum. Don't hesitate to tell me if this was not the appropriate choice! Have you heard of Brickenthal? No? Well, hardly anyone has. It's one of those tiny villages nested in steep mountains, in the heart of dark forests, where time seems to stand still. The kind of village where travellers get lost at dusk only to learn that the only inn is full, and are advised by smiling villagers to request hospitality at that strange, gloomy castle up there. But our story is not about lost travellers meeting the welcoming Count of Brickenthal : it's about the villagers. About the peaceful, quiet life of the villagers. Miss Kafka was the village librarian. She took care of the books, helped readers choose their next bedtime reading, shooed away the spiders who tried to settle down on the shelves - all those activities librarians usually do. She was also the president of the Sonderthal Book Club, whose members gathered once a week to discuss their latest book crushes. On this lovely evening of october, a storm threatened and the rain was pouring. Principal Voigt, the school headmistress, had brought homemade cookies. Miss Grünhausen, the dressmaker, had brought an interesting yet uncooperative fantasy book. Everything was perfect for a cosy club session.
