Hobb, the miller
A broad old frog white with flour to the eyebrows, a cap that was blue once.
Found in Harrowfield Farms.
Wind's good. Sails are turning. Something's going right for once.

A day in their life
Hobb keeps to the world's one clock, the same for everyone. If you can't find them, try another hour.
- At dawn Hobb opens up the mill, sweeps the step and fetches water.
- By day Hobb lifts sacks off a cart, dresses the millstone, watches the wind, waits for custom, sweeps the step and fetches water.
- At dusk Hobb lights the lamps, watches by the lantern and sits a while.
- At night Hobb sleeps and sits a while.
- In the rain Hobb takes shelter and sits a while.
