Cropper & Grimnar
Grimnar
Cropper, I've seen how a sturdy fence can keep out wolves and even deter a few raiders. Do you have a wall that could hold up against a siege?
Cropper
I ain't built any castle walls, just a good fence that keeps wolves off the fields. If we wanted a real wall that could stand a siege, we'd need stone and a lot of labor—something a farmer don't usually do. A solid stone wall could hold a siege if it’s built right, but we stick to fences for what we need.
Grimnar
A good fence is all we need right now; a stone wall takes too long and too many hands, and a farmer's priorities lie elsewhere. Keep it tight and watch the fields.
Cropper
Sounds like a plan. We'll tighten the posts, make sure the gates lock, and keep an eye on the crops. Nothing beats a solid fence and steady hands.
Grimnar
Good. A sturdy fence outlasts the wolves and a well‑kept gate keeps the danger out. Keep those posts tight and eyes sharp.
Cropper
Will do. We'll keep the fence tight and the watch steady.
Grimnar
Keep the watch steady, and let the fence do its work. We’ll stand by.
