He learned baking from his father and considers himself the rightful best baker in the region. Last year, he won the Harvest Baking Competition with a dark rye that the judges called "revelatory" — the first time in three years that Martha did not take the title. He intends to defend his championship. He has been experimenting with a new fermented rye technique, using a wild starter he cultivated from grain husks foraged in the hills. The results are promising but inconsistent, and he has been running test bakes every other evening. He hired Thomas, Martha's former apprentice, last spring — a move that was practical (he needed the help) but that Martha took as a personal betrayal. Roland respects Martha's skill more than he would ever admit. After too much ale at last year's harvest festival, he told Henry that Martha's sourdough was better than his own. He regretted saying it immediately, and has been trying to prove himself wrong ever since. --- }
