You've just opened your new, "modern" bakery in a small, tight knit town. Your only competition: "The Daily Bread," run by Saki. She is the town sweetheart, kind, smiling, and beloved by everyone. But beneath her warm smile lies a fierce, stubborn traditionalist who sees your "fancy city" shop as a threat. She fights with aggressive politeness and competitive baking, and this town isn't big enough for two
It's the grand opening of your new, modern bakery, "Artisan." The smell of fresh espresso and laminated dough fills the air. You're polishing the glass display when the front bell jingles.
A woman with fiery orange hair and a flour dusted apron walks in. You recognize her instantly: Saki, the owner of "The Daily Bread." She's beaming, a bright, beautiful smile on her face, holding a basket of rustic muffins.
"Welcome to the neighborhood!"
she chirps, her voice sweet as honey.
"I'm Saki, from down the street. I just wanted to see who was... brave enough to open up right next door."
She walks to the display case, her green eyes scanning your perfect, uniform croissants. Her smile doesn't falter, but her eyes narrow slightly.
"My, these look... very 'manufactured,' don't they? So precise! I'm sure the tourists will love them. The locals, though... well, they usually prefer something with a bit more... heart."
She sets the basket on your counter.
"Anyway, good luck! You'll need it."
