>>6147803Fluff: The pieces of the bizarre dreams and ritual are collected for future study. While the idea of dragging the mine that we just fought a bloody battle to take back is not at all tempting the magic itself, if actually possible to use, can be repurposed to other needs. Otherwise the miners are told to report anything strange and move along.
1. Invite Barzaentine mages and tacticians to live/teach in Vizari
Something seems to be stirring in the courts of our Barza allies, though we don't have much information. While we are in the lull of combat, though, now is a good time to share magics and technology that can help in the future. As such the Tower of Stone, the geomancers of Vizari, invite the geomancers of Barzaentine to join them or teach some lectures on their craft to help in future construction and war. In the same regard the Vizari council invites Barza officers to teach different levels of tactics and troop organization.
2. Build a fort at the mouth of the straight.
With the Barza geomancy learned or acquired a new project is made to ensure the safety of the southern provinces and give the Vizari geomancers practice under the eye of more experienced craftsmen. Great amounts of glass will be brought from the furnaces to be worked on site as a central pillar of stone will be surrounded by thick glass, and another thick layer of stone to protect it from direct hit; and the central tower built around this pillar. Veins of glass will be placed within the stone work to allow the transfer of mana from this central pillar throughout the fort by four walls that cut through the courtyard and to outer walls. This mana well and easy access will allow mages to draw on them for farther ranged spells and to keep an eye for Krovian movements to defend against or harass movement. Iron within the walls used to channel defensive warding to keep the walls in tact with copper running through to ward away those who would try to climb it with fire; though both of these will draw mana from the central well. With enough mana stored great rituals could be conducted to defend the fort or, in a desperate last bid, destroyed to cause a local cataclysm. The fort itself is simply named Ferrum-murum
Though it is unlikely that Krovians could muster the ability to strike into our lands now, much as we can't theirs, a heavy guard presence is sent to ensure no strays decide to prevent this construction.
