I thought you said forever over and over
Taking the pulley from Nikandr, Liam made his way back upstairs to the platform above, where he selected a particularly sturdy branch to tie the pulley to. Then he passed the rope through and back down, and it wasn't long before they had their first load of lumber being pulled up using the new system. Liam had to admit that it was useful, and he was glad that they'd managed to put it together before they spent all afternoon hauling supplies up and down.
And then it was time for the walls. Liam headed up, pausing to lift Niki up if needed, and then got started on framing out the walls and rafters. Fortunately, this was fairly straightforward given that he'd gotten the platform they were working on so precisely level - but straightforward did not necessarily mean fast or easy. Indeed, it was quite the task to measure, cut, and assemble the frames before hoisting them into place, but he did the work without complaint. It was satisfying to see their creation coming to life before their eyes, and as Liam began to see the shape of what they were making, he only got more excited to finish it.
