Who: Anyone
When: Day 36, morning
Where: outside the Level 3 windows
What: lumberjacking

[So out on that tree that's closest to the outside walkway, there is a branch about seven feet up from the platform. Currently, there is someone standing on it, a vine tied around his waist and connecting back to the treetrunk, and another tied around the branch. There also seems to be a knife sawing through the branch just past where his feet are... by itself. But not for long, thank goodness, because it jumps back to his hand. The branch could snap right off, doing stupid shit like that.

Which it might, considering he's now trying to break the branch in half with his foot.

While he's still on it.]

Well, I can get back to you once I've made something of my own. This will take time.

That's fine by me, I'm not expecting anything in the short-term. And if it turns out this won't work, I can have you pay back in some other way. Works perfectly, really!

[shrugs]

Wood always has a use, even if it's not for furniture. There will be something that can be done with it.

Hahahah! That's true. Taking advantage of available resources— I like that.

It's been pointed out to me that the resources inside this building won't last forever, and it's true enough.

It stands to reason that they won't. Especially given how fast people are pushing nature back. We'll be forced to stick to going outside for hunting soon enough.

Yes, and things are bigger and nastier out here.

Far bigger and nastier. I've gone twice, and it's nothing as easy and manageable as it is inside. We didn't even go far before being attacked— and the first time me and Kakashi almost died.

That's unfortunate. I've only been out once, to get one of the serpents. And that was a difficult job, even between three people.

It's likely we'll have to start arranging groups once the time comes.

Yes, I'd say so.

Which is also why finding strong people to work with is a good idea. Makes things easier for later.

Ah, I see. That's true enough. Though I wonder if we will be able to clear level two of all that water.

I haven't really checked level two yet, to be honest.

There isn't much to check. It's entirely flooded. A brief look down the stairs will show you that much.

Mmhh...

The gods have been making us do some tasks in exchange of big changes lately. I wonder if that's what it'll take.

Water is Dellen's domain. It may be best to ask her first.

Wouldn't she have done it already if she could just get rid of it? It's probably not in her powers yet. That's why I think she might need a group effort done in her name for it.

[makes a noise of assent]

Hence why we should ask her.

Mmmh...

Well. More space is always useful.

Alternatively, someone can knock a hole in the outside wall and see if anything drains.

Even if it does we'd have to close that hole eventually.

Yes, so? There are a lot of things we need to do eventually. Like move outside of this building.

All I'm saying is that it's going to be a lot of work either way.

Obviously.

...but, I don't think we're at quite that point yet.
