It was already dark in the big forest. Mr. Duhlen, one of the largest merchants in the town, had tightly closed all the windows in the hall before the hours of darkness prevailed. The fire inside the iron brazier had increased the heat inside. As he was taking the beers to the round table on the wooden counter, he said, "Eorwen, come here and cook the fish. I'll go to the garden to chop wood,' he said in a slightly excited state, and after carefully placing the beers on the table, he took his thick woolen coat from the rack and went out. Eorwen, Duhlen's son, was in the upstairs room thinking about his friend Mildraze, who was coming towards tonight, at least he was until he was called. Without making him say it a second time, he got up from his bed and opened the door of his room and went out into the corridor, there was a kitchen at the end of the stairs, and he saw his mother making deer soup there. he went up to her and said, "Mom, it looks very nice, if you want, I can try to see if it's OK,' and he smiled.

While the woman was stirring the soup in a large pot facing the stove, she kissed his son's hair, who came to her, and then said, " There's still dinner, so watch January cooking your father's famous fish. Or he'll eat his head off.' she said and laughed.

Eorwen knew that this was true because he had had the opportunity to do so many times by experience, thanks to their trade trips to the north and west. His father was not the type to say something twice, he was someone who wanted what he wanted to be done to happen at that moment. Perhaps the reason why this is the case could also be due to the fact that he had the entire load of the caravan consisting of 60 sleigh deer and 25 horses.

★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★

Eorwen was thinking about this while he was trying to salt and cook the fish, he didn't know exactly what would happen in the future, he should have continued this job if it was up to his father, but for some reason he couldn't think of herself watching over a trading caravan. Even when he was helping his father, sometimes he felt tired enough, especially when they were going north, and this was justified. The coldness of the weather, the disorders of the roads due to the weather, the responsibility of more than two hundred people next to him and diseases were the main causes.
