Sample text:

The village children squealed with delight at the wondrous sight of hundreds of gliders swooping out of the sky and landing in the nearby wheat field. Even the adults in the remote mountain village stared at what looked like a flock of huge black birds gently drifting into their midst. 

It was not unusual to see a lone glider or sometimes two or three but never hundreds.     However, one old Nuven was upset by the arrival of the intruders. Ancia Fawzer shouted as she marched toward the Verdans who were trampling the village’s field. Amused and curious, all the inhabitants of the village fell in behind the determined little woman. 

“Stop, stop. Have you no respect?” she yelled at a Verdan who stood with his arms folded while flashing a satisfied smirk. “This is our wheat, we need this to get through the winter," Ancia snapped. “Oh my ancestors, half the field is down!” 

The Verdan shrugged as he surveyed the scene. “My apologies, but my men and I needed an open area to land.” 

Ancia was not to be placated. “We expect to be compensated for this damage Verdan,” she growled, pointing a crooked finger at the stranger. “Who are you and why are there so many of you?” 

“We are merely hunters,” the Verdan chuckled as he watched the Nuven villagers crowd around the angry old woman. “It looks like the entire village has come to greet us,” he replied, gesturing toward the curious onlookers.
