Gretel's smiled as she knelt down and placed a woven basket with root vegetables at the stoop of a modest wooden house. The chill in the highland air carried through the village.
The old woman standing in the doorway leaned heavily on a cane as she gave a grateful smile.
"No problem, Miss Avia. Always happy to help," Gretel replied with a slight nod, rising to her full height and brushing the dirt from her gloves.
"You truly are a blessing to this village, Gretel," Avia said, chuckling as she placed the basket inside. "Helping with chores when your time could be better spent on yourself. Always running, always serving."
