The time is autumn and the weather is pleasantly cool. The trees of the woodland nestling Bree-hill are arrayed in lovely fall splendor, their bright leaves blown astir by a gentle fall zephyr. William Wonderboom, an eccentric baker and candyman of legendary repute, has finally appeared in Breetown after a long hiatus. He has arranged hot chocolate stations around the market for these specialty drinks to be sold for a silver coin. Old orchardist Wes Marble has his booths set up for hot spiced apple and pumpkin ciders, cheaply gotten for five copper coins.
More stalls or stores are needed! You can fill the form below in your IC posts and I'll add it to this OP so we can have a record
of businesses, including owners and employees (Plaza members or NPCs); if you'd like to work for a particular owner, you can ask her/him in the Imladris OOC, https://lotrfanaticsplaza.com/forum/vie ... ?f=10&t=34. There will be a security roster, also. Anyone playing a Hill Watcher will receive points to be counted for promotion in the Bree-land Constabulary which is being made anew by me on Narv Plaza; the HQ thread will be created sometime this month.

It is said that Dwarves do not reveal their true names and the ones they use are of Northen (Mannish) origin. He is known to the Bree-landers as Sanikolas but they casually refer to him as Santa or Nick for short.
