Does the Crystal Work?

It does, now what?

The feeling of comfort overcomes you for a brief moment, Home you think to yourself is a beautiful thing. Looking around it really isn’t much, but for as long as you can remember it has kept you safe and hidden. The rubble of the tower has fallen a bit more into the ravine and all of the furniture you have managed to make or gather over the years is nowhere to be seen. So it’s starting from scratch yet again. You can remember a few times that this has happened to you, the first time you were so mad that you went off to fight something and got killed. The rest it was hit or miss. Hopefully using the Claimant Crystal will fix things and they will stop crumbling and disappearing whenever you are gone for more than a few hours. At first sight of the Ravine both Green and Tulip start darting around and looking things over. First thing is first pulling out the crystal a text prompt appears.

Claim Victors Tower/ Harpies Haven?

Clicking yes, a beam of green light shoots from the center of what's left of the tower straight up into the air. Then it divides into two walls of green light that stretches for a mile all the way around. Sealing off a mile area around before more text appears blurring your vision before it all goes black.

Slowly your eyes open and you can see the broken top of Victors Tower looming above you in the canopy of trees. You have no idea how long you were out for but it had to have been a couple of hours, as the sun is now well past midday and it was morning when you used the crystal. Sitting up seems to take a lot of effort, and your wing sends a sharp jolt of pain through your shoulder. Thinking to yourself “I have got to stop hurting that wing or it will never heal.” The glowing green dome is still there and some text prompts appear.

40 Fame remaining

So now onto building up my land you think to yourself as you climb the short way back to the top of one of the many little hills that surround your land. As you do it sounds as if there are footsteps following you through the undergrowth.

Perception Check Passed

Yes there is, whatever it is, maybe 20ft behind you. A rather large humanoid, almost 6ft, in flimsy cloth coverings, brutish looking with rather short legs for its size. Large arms that seem a little too long and a flowing beard.

Fullangr Lvl 1 (Half Giant/Half Dwarf)

“Owh, Lad what’s the deal with summoning us and leaving without instructions???” Says the creature in a gruff masculine tone. “We are the minor minions, Whatcha wanton us to do Laddie?” As he asks his question another massive frame appears almost identical to the first save the color of orange hair rather than blonde.

“Well I didn’t know that it summoned you guys now, ummm What are you guys good at?” You stumble out in response to the jibe.

“Well we are part dwarf which means we are really good at cutting and mining stone and everything that comes with it, we are also good at hauling and mason work. We are big so i s’pose we could cutt’cha some firewood and logging as well. But really Boss it’s not up to us, see you are the boss Lad and you tell us what we be doing.” The blonde one says.

“Ummm go cut and stack stone blocks for the tower repair.” You say the only thing that comes to mind immediately. Hoping that they will do as told and stop stalking you through the trees.

“Ay Ay Lad, come on Bizmo we got some stone to cut, oh where would you like us to start?” asks the blonde Fullangr.

“Cut the stone out from below Victors Tower to make room in the chasm for lodging for all you new people, after all you have to sleep somewhere.” You say and can envision the end result before the sentence has even fully formed. A large cleft under a restored Victors Tower with a long ramp leading up to the gate with a small village of friendlies nestled around the base of the ramp and safe inside the chasm.

“Ay Ay Lad off we go Bizmo the boss has given his orders.” The Blonde one states to the other large creature.

“Okey dokey Gizmo off we go to cut stone for the boss.” He whistles a happy tune as they start back towards Harpy Haven to work.

Once making it to the top of the hill you see the ocean of trees and small hillocks that hide your claimed abode. Plenty of Elm, Oak and Pine for your needs, as well as all the large boulders that occasionally dot through the screen of greenery. You sit enjoying the view for a couple of hours reveling in the thought that this time it will be different any changes you make permanent, before you are interrupted by the red haired giant shuffling up behind you.

“Ummm boss, we don’t have tools to mine the stone…. Gizmo sent me up to see if you have any or if you want him to start crafting some for us to use.” Bizmo sounds nervous like he is shy or scared to be approaching you without his possible twin. Digging around in your pack you pull out the two matching sets of bronze pick and axes, handing them over to the shy giant before asking him a question as he turns to leave.

“You seem nervous being around me, why?”

“Well boss you are the boss and the other bosses i had before you weren’t very nice at all, I don't know what to make of you yet.” Bizmo states hesitantly.

“Don’t be afraid we are in this together, I just want to carve out a safe place for “monsters” like us. When you get down below would you find Tulip and Green and send them up here we have some plans to go over. And Thank you for your honesty Bizmo.” With that the Giant heads the rest of the way down the hill.

How does Planning go?

More fun
