The last several years of repairing structures and building things from scratch had honed Tal's sense for construction. He might not be a professional, but he was pretty damn good at it, if he did say so himself.
He and Alys had picked out a spot a little distance from the Refuge where her magic and his items would still work, and together they'd laid out the lines to make the foundations. He'd been eager to get started, but there were supplies to haul in (thank the gods for the Peregrine) and letters to send out, and the upheaval in other parts of Caido meant occasionally stopping to lend a hand elsewhere.
But in spite of the death and the ill omens the courier was stubbornly determined to grab this happiness in both hands and tell the void-fucking-doom-shit to fuck right off. He was going to build a fucking home with his partner, and not even a whole ass moon landing in Torchline was going to ruin that.
So one morning early in Longheat he and Alys were laying out shovels and getting the fire stoked beneath the cauldron where the mortar was being mixed for the foundations of a new building. Boreal had been sent to lead Hotaru and her beau to the chosen location, because today was the day!
The first day, at least. Even with magic it would probably take several days to build the whole place up from scratch, but Tal shot Alys a hopeful grin and added more wood to the fire.
This is a PQ to build a new place of business for Alys and Tal, with a home on the second floor! It will involve making things from scratch for the SE. It will take several days IC.
Please post your character arriving with anything they're bringing for day one: laying foundations!
