"Sah Lovi, welcome," Hadama rumbled, courteous as ever but with quiet pleasure in his eyes for the young man who joined him first. Green eyes sparkled with mischief as his sweater received its first compliment, but before he could reply a second helper arrived. Though he had not met her in person, her appearance was unmistakable from the images Safrin had shown of her newest children. He inclined his head deeply to the young lady. "It is good to meet you, Nova," he assured her. "And thank you both." He paused and then gave Nova a nod, the edges of his eyes crinkling slightly. "Your hair is lovely." The colors were bright and cheerful, much like the woman beneath them seemed to be.
If others wished to join them they could do so later, he decided. They were enough to begin the tasks of cleaning out the shrine and he gestured for the pair to join him as he hefted a load of lumber and tools and started up the stairs that spiraled around the great tree. "The shrine was neglected for several seasons. We will need to repair the damage before we can clean it. And leave fresh offerings," he explained as they walked. "Several of the railings and floorboards were damaged by the nether vines and branches. But first we will need to repair the stairs."
Lower down the stairs and ladders that led up the tallest tree in the Sidhe Village were unchanged and still usable, but as they went higher there was evidence of storm damage from previous seasons. They came upon a roughly ten foot stretch of stairs that looked cracked and weakened, with some planks missing completely from where a large branch higher up had cracked off and crashed into them. Hadama stopped to set down his burdens and considered the obstacle. "We will need someone to remove the broken pieces," he rumbled. "Another to prepare replacements. And a third to fix them into place."
Round 1: Repair the stairs leading up to the shrine!
Hadama will take what's left, and there are several Fae along to assist as needed.
1. Remove the damaged planks of broken stairs
2. Measure and cut new ones
3. Use hammer and nails to replace them
