Aldo McGillicuddy is overwhelmed with the influx of travelers coming into town. At first, he was friendly and sympathetic to the people of Noanar's Hold but of late he started to think like a practical man. He's been seen in the company of Iormel Cowell and Jaren Nurth who've both put a great effort into finding work for the idle hands that have come to town.
As the apples, pears and peaches need harvesting, Aldo has taken advantage of the newcomers paying 1/4 of the wage he'd have paid to the locals in years past. No one is really happy about this, not the locals of the people of Noanar.
