Josiah detailed his feelings of the day with particular care.

“On my way to see you, I had mentally prepared myself. After all, the concept of a mountain village had always been just a term to me, so no matter how unfamiliar the surroundings here were, I could accept them. But what truly stirred me was this town.”

Lysander astutely sensed the underlying message in his words. “Are you planning to develop this area. yourself?”
