Once again, the leaders of the Croglatovic are divided between leaving the Scagravic in peace and subjugating them. Once again, it is the pacifists who win the argument. The status quo is maintained. Though the Rodac diehards and the more bloodthirsty Sitrunic are displeased by this decision, the Anamilivic and the softer followers of Sitrun are relieved – they see no reason for conflict, as the Scagravic are barely a threat at all. A hundred and fifty blood-drinkers patrol the rivers to the north and south of their territory are more than enough to keep them at bay.
Another year passes and as autumn approaches, the drobrac declare it to be a good year. There shall be enough surplus for the Croglatovic to invite representatives from all of the river and coastal tribes. Sure enough, leaders from each of those clans arrive at the harvest feast to enjoy the hospitality of the great lake. Painted men, wing-stitchers, thin folk, rock-eaters and river bugs – who are seemingly normal people – they all show up to pay their respects to Sitrun, the lady of the lake.
It is at this great feast that the favourite daughter of An declares that a colony and its queen must have a hive. Tradul serves as her interpreter – it is not enough for a hundred Croglatovic villages to surround the great lake, there must be a single seat of power where all of these feasts can be held and where the family of Igladac shall rule from.
Of course, the responsibility of overseeing the construction of this seat of power falls to the various tribal leaders who serve the Igladac dynasty. Labourers and craftsmen who work on this project shall be paid with the shell money that the ruling family has accrued with their recent tax, but it is difficult to determine the right spot for this new hub.
Our civilisation could choose <span class="mu-s">the populous northern bank</span>. The most populated area with the largest villages. Using one of them as the foundation will give construction efforts a headstart.
Our civilisation could choose <span class="mu-s">the fertile southern shore</span>. Crops grow especially well here. The abundance of food here will ensure that the people of this great village shall never starve.
Our civilisation could choose <span class="mu-s">the prosperous Choslitol</span>. A spot near where the Croglatol flows into this river would be an ideal location for a trading hub and serve as the heart of Croglatovic commerce.
Our civilisation could choose <span class="mu-s">the rugged southeastern foothills</span>. Though the air here is thin, this land is very defensible and a source of good stone, which might be a good building material.
Our civilisation could choose <span class="mu-s">an artificial island</span>. Sitrun and Tradul shall be honoured with a project of titanic proportions that shall likely take decades, if not centuries before it sees completion.
