Lisbeth Looked over the weaponry with a less-than-expert eye. Construction wasn't really her thing, but she could at least make out any obvious issues.
"It looks like these struts need to be replaced," she told the crew leader, indicating a few wooden beams that were starting to rot through. "And the bowstring on both of the ballistae need to be completely replaced. They're starting to fray." She didn't know siege weapons, but she did know bows, and a fraying string would be an absolute disaster, whether it was the hair-thin string of a bow or the thick rope that fired the ballista bolts.
While the repairs begin, the workers set about their duties on each crew's tasks, but not without issue. Mutters begin to spread among the workers:
"Can't believe we're working for kids."
"This is ridiculous, I could be that kid's father."
"How is Stormbreak supposed to win the war if this is the best they have?"
And so on.
The grumbling continues until it seems like it might boil over and cause problems. Something will have to be done.

Each one of us will need to find a way to settle the concerns of the work crews! They don't like working for teenagers. Maybe they need a pep talk, or some good old fashioned discipline. Everyone is responsible for their own crew!
