Creating Worlds - Daily Writer (1/25)

Prompt: Begin creating a world on a single page.  Choose any setting you wish.

It starts in a small town.  There are quite a few buildings but most of them are homes.  There is one store near the entrance gate of the town.  There's also a chicken ranch further in (though the chickens are always getting loose).  The buildings themselves are mostly made of stone with either large leaves or a mixture of straw and mud for the roof (some houses have a combination of both).  There is a small graveyard at the back of the town.  The people mostly work from the home (even the shopkeeper lives above his store).  Though there is some currency floating around, most of the villagers barter with each other to exchange both goods and resources.  They live complacently with their daily lives, not realizing that there may be more to life than this small town or that everyone outside of the town simply sees them as beggars.
