Action 1: Expand
>At further examination, "lake" Supkha seems closer to an ocean, with borders we've yet to grasp.
>Decision was made by the elders to set up watch posts on as much of the forests as we could, to provide a buffer zone should our southern neighbors become cocky, pending seeding efforts to render the forests thick enough that no sunlight falls under them. Reports arrived of a different kind of neighbor to the southeast, settling parcels of land. Orders so far were to not interact until an envoy can be dispatched.
>Lost scout's spring was followed north to a lake. Do not recommend continuing further north until we learn more of the snowy land that would await, and how to survive it. Our thickest coats are not enough. Perhaps the leathers from the Orcmanie[1] would prove useful?
1. Nation of orc-descendants located to the west of Habitun.

Action 2: Dig
>Our Shadows had tired of the sunless valley and multitude of caverns of Fuaha. They longed for the depths they were promised.
>And so they began to dig, dig, and dig some more, starting from Fuaha, and slowly expanding through the earthen mountains and hills. They would prioritize grounds where veins of metals could be seen, for the more they could find and deliver to their Svartalf halves, the less they would need to interact with the abovegrounders, and the more they could aid them in the burrow to Terra's embrace.
>The zeal was considered disturbing by some, but romanticized by others. I am of the latter.
