Stoking the Stove | Description |
---|---|
0 | Not that there's much heat […] in the first place. Sometimes the potbelly stove in the corner feels like the last soldier standing in a valiant but hopeless battle. […] Frost creeps over the floor until the stove coughs out a coal or two to drive it back. |
1 - 7 | Not that there's much heat […] Sometimes the potbelly stove in the corner feels like the last soldier standing […] Every windowpane is densely laced with ice. Frost creeps over the floor until the stove coughs out a combustible curse or two to drive it back. |
8+ | Not that there's much heat in the first place, since the potbelly stove has decided to strike out on its own and rampage […] someone ought to tidy up the mess the stove made […] For some reason, the Tracklayer's Union claims it isn't their responsibility. |
