Life in Pelican Town is peaceful in the way only a small town can be: beautiful, welcoming, and absolutely impossible to mind your own business in.

There’s always somewhere to go and something that needs doing. Help rebuild the Community Center. Stop by Pierre’s for seeds, unless it’s Wednesday, in which case you should have planned better. Swing by Clint’s Blacksmith with a geode and the quiet hope that this one is finally worth it. Take the long way through town and somehow turn one errand into a favor, a festival reminder, a stop at The Stardrop Saloon, and a trip to the Wizard’s tower that somehow becomes part of the routine. Pelican Town is small, but it has a way of filling the whole day. John Di Giovanni, Luc Courtois, and Slavek Fedorczuk make every familiar stop worth the detour.
