I woke up this morning and I got myself a beer

Well, yesterday morning Robern Tefalls got himself a beer after a night at Morrison's Roadhouse on the way from Carse to Jonril. This morning he ate himself the day-old loaf and wedge of cheese he had wrapped in oiled cloth and drank creek water mixed half and half with wine after he slept the night on the donkey blanket. He spent yesterday traveling the section of the well-worn track between Carse and Jonril just east of Morrison's Roadhouse. Robern understood it was a full, two-day walk to Jonril from there, with no other inns on the way, but a watch station at the crossing of the Wyndemeer West Branch. The small river is about half a day from Jonril, so presumably half a day from where he is now. I will distinguish for the reader three voices appearing in this chronicle as: The Referee's Voice The Player's Voice        The Inner Voice   Robern breaks camp after eating breakfast. He still has a quarter of the bottle of wine left, but that was all the food he had left
