TNGF

SELECTED

Thomas Farriner

primary

A middle-aged man of sturdy build, with flour-dusted hands and a ruddy complexion from years working near ovens. His dark hair is streaked with grey and tied back with a simple leather cord, while his face bears deep worry lines now creased with distress.

Samuel Pepys

primary

A well-groomed man in his early 30s with a full, dark brown periwig framing an oval face. His sharp, observant eyes are framed by arched brows that frequently lift in reaction to events. He has a neatly trimmed mustache and carries himself with the upright posture of a naval administrator.

City Guard

secondary

A middle-aged man of sturdy build, with a weathered face marked by deep lines from years of service. His dark hair is streaked with gray, tied back in a short queue. His sharp eyes scan the chaos with practiced vigilance.

Baker's Apprentice

secondary

A thin, wiry youth of about 16 years with soot-streaked cheeks and calloused hands. His light brown hair is matted with sweat and flour dust, sticking to his forehead. Narrow shoulders show the lean muscle of someone used to kneading dough and hauling sacks of flour.

Fleeing Mother

background

A thin, exhausted woman in her late 20s with soot-streaked face and tangled brown hair escaping from her cap. Her hands are raw from clutching her child too tightly, and her eyes are wide with terror. The child, about 3 years old, has tear-streaked cheeks and is clinging to her neck.

Thomas Farriner God's teeth, had I but doused the embers proper! The draft—the flue draft was all wrong—

City Guard Move along, Farriner! This ain't the time for excuses—your oven's set half London ablaze!

Samuel Pepys Mark it—the western eaves of St. Paul's now catch! Tempus fugit indeed—four churches consumed since matins!

Thomas Farriner My apprentice—where's my boy? He was fetching water from the conduit—

City Guard Stand clear, you fools! That timber's near to fall!

Samuel Pepys Observe how the wind drives it like a fleet before a gale—thirty houses, nay forty, must be ashes by now.

Thomas Farriner I'll not leave without my ledgers—five generations of accounts in that strongbox!
