>>6138586Action 1: Expand into the ruins, and plumb them
>Bever Hitab: Your continued complaints to the council irk to no end. You deny us our prize for no benefit but your own belly filled. What would it take for you to be satiated?>Blomsterlok Rus: In the question, an answer. Grant us our fishing waters. We fish here, you build the boats only. Do not demand our fruits!>Bever Hitab: You could not begin to afford the price for those ships. A portion of your every catch is a reasonable price. Especially when we maintain them after every journey.>Blomsterlok Rus: Robbery I say. You price yourselves beyond anyone's reach. The council shall continue to hear of our plight.- Series of communiques between Hitab patriarch and Gronn Dal village head
>Small ones plumbing Terra's bowels>A-shiver of fear and suspense alike>Yet soon, all that echoed from them, howls>Into lake Supkha a river flowed>From one path, unstopped, persuaded away>And so all in its path, it mowed- Seer Of Shadow,
"Visions"
>Structure buried deep. Passages small, but finely crafted. It was either shrunken by magic, or its builders were guppies.>Fishing only takes us so far. Landed on shore. Strange woods, more humid than Shipwreck Bluff, and hotter than grandpa Blue Eye's cabin in the summers. But very easy hunting. Lots of animals. Won't go hungry soon.- Report from Fisker Hitab to Habitun Council
>The fishing waters within 100 mil of Gronn Dal and shore will provide agreed upon portion of catch to house Hitab. Council will dispatch adjudicators to measure distance and anchor markers of distance.>House Hitab will maintain any and all Habitun ships that arrive to its shore.>Pioneers moving to the Svette Woods for work or settlement may requisition 10 ort of gold per head for the journey from council coffers. Any participating in the uncovering of the ruins shall be awarded century-long luxury rations and three kin's tutoring under mancy of choice.- Council decree
