[QUOTE="Tales and Chronicles, post: 8347238, member: 6871653"] One day, in a setting, I'll have the Halflings be somewhat like the gnomes from Midgard: Being always tormented by the greater folks around them, they made a deal with the god-demon of Sloth and Indulgence. In exchange for yearly human sacrifice, the halflings can live in idyllic little house on the hills, with their perfect neighborhoods and full of free time to do nothing but to enjoy a simple of life of rest and eating, far from the great folks who would harm them. Their hills would be impossible to find for anyone with a goal or motivation, only aimless wanderer, lost travelers or daydreamers might stumble upon an halfling village to be invited at their table...and probably sacrificed to their dark lord. Ignorance is bliss they say. If the halflings could rip the veil of willful ignorance, they would see that their fields are full of weeds, with catoblepas grazing in them instead of cows, with rotten foods fulling their closets and dirty baths and laundries instead of what they thought was the comfiest of bath houses.
