>>6111306There is a blindness to warmaker Manumanu, perhaps because he was trained for so long in the dark. Long before his name was made, lineages of heroes and kings made their deeds be that of peacemaking and naturetaming under the watch of our now-dead gods. It is a good way, one that does not steal from the rest of our people just to lose it all again. We've felt the cultists of Kholan delay our meant-to-be fates just to pursue whatever plot their god and Manumanu says must be done. We do not begrudge them, but when their numbers are this severely reduced and their enemy so unknown, we act as we must to secure our own path.
>Establish the Second City, An'naudThis centre of orchards and gardens has been slowly growing since the Domo first made land here and sought out the native flora. Now, with tales of Kholan's obvious dominance over nature, this city may at last be christened as truly a city of the Domo. Enkhet, taking up the moniker of "Last True Kholan Archpriest" to the dismay of the other remaining cultists, took it upon himself to be appointed as First Speaker of An'naud and mandated the construction of a temple dedicated to Kholan in her role as the jailor and suitor of Marlene.
>Establish the ShipyardsIn Koll'naud itself, with leather available at last, the Domo may finally return to its true nature as seafarers. East of Koll'naud itself, before a tiny inlet of the homesea, a great many structures are laid for the constructions of vessels to the sea. Most of these are for the smaller kind of ships, meant to transport goods to and from our kin in the east and south. The rest was dedicated to larger vessels, meant for larger cargos and further ranges of the sea, for fishing in the far southeast or to patrol our seas if it needs be. We still haven't figured out how Manumanu convinced the stone to move on its own, so we make do on these larger vessels with oarsmen or larger and more numerous sails, though that still is in the works.
