You should find out who has been here a long time and consider listening to them. Anyone who has lived in this town, or was in the previous one for any length of time, has lived through a lot of what this place can throw at a person. I spent more than a year in Deerington and now close to a year in this place, so I am one of those that has been here for quite a while.

You may not respect people all that much but I'm sure you can respect what wisdom experience can bring. I'm not just talking to you because I like the sound of my own voice. Understand?
