Gear up as you wait for company, so you can go into battle~

Turning the 40 silk into 8 silk sheets before constructing the 'Basic Magicians White Hat' using up 2 silk sheets, before checking through the basic upgrades for the newly constructed piece and realizing that most options wasn't even available, leather and basic magic components were very much needed. The three options that there was there for you were quite simple, Lightly Reinforce with 2 iron, imbue it with earth energies with 10 stone or Medium Reinforce with 8 iron. Taking a moment to think things through you lightly reinforce the hat and equipped that on your head making you note about the shadowy hand of a dark mage, you've lost your corporeal form because... because... and now you finally realized that you've had amnesia about how you actually got into this castle!

And you honestly don't care at all about that, your here and your currently king of a empty castle.

That side tangent aside you quickly go back to the work bench and unequipped your robes and places it on it before trying to get them to be Medium Reinforced, and was pleasantly surprised that it only took 6 iron to upgrade the robe. You were pleased with the results and equipped them once more.

You check your status before waiting a bit longer for more heroes to appear and see if your trap is as effective as you want it to be.

The huge upgrade in Hp was helpful, though 3 extra defense didn't seem all that significant all things considered. Going through your skills once more made you sigh, you wanted more so you'd get more options to fight the heroes.

Seeing as no more options were visible on what you could construct with silk sheets that you didn't own, you tried the other remaining items and found that nothing really had opened up for you in the way of construction. Seeing as there still wasn't any heroes to be fought, a quick trip to the Facilities feature allowed you to repair your bed with the rest of your silk sheets and 4 stone, while the closet was restore with 10 stone and finally an upgrade to the bench using 5 wood and and 2 iron.

[Partially Restored Bed: A bed that has had it's outer part been restored, yet the insides are as old as this castle stands still. Restores 2 Work per hour, automatically wake if intruders are inside the castle or Work is fully restored.
Stone Closet: A storage container meant only for the boss monster of this room and cannot be interacted with by Player Characters, currently it's empty and unused besides the resources. Storage of 30 unique items, stacking resources to 50.
Work Desk II: A better version of the Work Desk which gives access to more basic blueprints.]

Checking the closet made you pretty peeved that Dust is actually filling in 3 spaces of items, before noting the lack of dust over the new chest and trap floor around it that stood in the middle of the room. Taking the small stack of 21 dust which you really didn't understand and watched as a large amount of dust just coat the room, much to your annoyance.

Tidying up the bed, you got into it and quickly fell into slumber.
