...Well, it looks like the allure of that damn hole in the ground has cooled off. No more idiots jumping into it and proclaiming they're doing something important.

Meanwhile, I'm going to go back to work. Now that my stupid cold is gone. If anyone wants to do something other than sit around, I've got a building that needs to be built.

A building for people to do training and whatnot in. It's a much larger project than that lakehouse I built.

[filial_guardian]

It wasn't supposed to be a solo project, but a lot of things happened, I guess. All of that commotion over the hole didn't help matters, either.

[bernardelli]

I didn't think any of the people here knew anything about construction.

[filial_guardian]

How hard is it? You can find books on lots of things in the library.

...That isn't to say I haven't done construction projects or anything.

[bernardelli]

I'm not saying that I don't. I've helped build houses before, right before I arrived here, actually. I guess it didn't seem like anyone here would have the experience. A lot of the people around are either teenagers or heroes of some sort.

[filial_guardian]

"Teenagers or heroes of some sort." ...You do realize that, depending on the kinds of worlds everyone comes from, they could be builders or shopkeepers in their teens?

[matchbreaking]

Well I'm bored so-- I could lend a hand!

[filial_guardian]

...In the dark, Elda?

[matchbreaking]

Why not?

[filial_guardian]

You'd be the only one working in the dark.

...Once the situation calms down some I will... find you some help. No one has been willing thus far...

[filial_guardian]

I'm not sure what happened, but the construction project practically fell through the cracks. But whatever. I've been doing fine by myself.

[mywariswon]

I assure you sir, that was not my intention. While I appreciate your efforts, I wouldn't want to... overburden you.

[fates_ironic]

[Bored, thus curious.] ... what building?

[filial_guardian]

A training center type of building. Somewhere for indoor training, since it's annoying to train outside in the rain and, very likely, snow.

[fates_ironic]

... I see. Something of that sort would be useful in a place like this.

[filial_guardian]

Yes. It was either that or a watermill, and I found this project less complicated and more useful.
