Maea
It's not a demon at your door
Thalassa's offer was generous, but Maea wouldn't let her do all the work alone. Seeing the others get to work, she smiled at the Captain and came over to join her as part of Group 1. "I believe you more than capable enough for the task, but it would feel better for me to join in the actual work."
She watched for a moment as the assistants and Thal got to work on digging, and considered how to add to the structure.
"Let's add a fence as a perimeter," she suggested, "and make it slant inward. If we add Hanging Snakes they should not be able to leave so easily."
It was a fairly easy task to braid a fence, the only issue with it being the time it took. Maea joined the assistants with a knife in hand to split the wicker they would braid together, telling herself that it was better to be thorough and make it properly.
Thalassa would find the Sweetgrass plants easier to manage than the Hanging Snakes. The moment they were ready to release, the serpents realized that she was far warmer than the ground and attempted to wriggle their way into her sleeves, climb her legs and in general make a perch out of her. Noticing, Maea wavered between the urge to help and trusting her companion. "Uhm, are you... alright?"
In Group 2, Sah and Talyson made a good enough team despite their apparently shaky relation. Unfortunately they were perhaps a bit hasty in planning, because even though they completed their construction swiftly and efficiently, once they were finished and it was time to fetch their tumbleweeds, it was only to find the plantimals a good size bigger than they perhaps had expected. And while the regular one was fine with rocking gently in its crate, the Void Tumbleweed kept rolling and bouncing against the reinforced bars of its prison, reaching eerie branches through the gaps as if to search for weaknesses. The nearby guards watched it anxiously, only too eager to be relieved of their duty.
Group 3 meanwhile had a slow start. Edmund's idea to use glass was good, if a bit unexpected, and it took the assistants a long while to procure the exact dimensions he wanted. Ellyra meanwhile was provided with the hastily scribbled sketch of the container from an assisting architect, only to be met with a handwriting so abysmally poor that it was nearly illegible.
Round 3!
Experiment 1, Round 2.
Group 1 has finished their construction. Hanging Snakes are trying to get cozy with Thalassa - do you need some help?
Group 2 finished their construction too, but the Tumbleweeds are a bit bigger than normal, and the Void one seems to be on the verge of escaping its crate. Decide whether to enlargen the pens or release the critters before the Void Tumbleweed escapes!
Group 3 is beset with delays. Describe how they solve the issues in order to complete the construction!
