But it became abundantly clear that more work was to be done – given the state of everything. Mostly from lack of use: covered in either white sheets to protect upholstery, tapestries, trophies, and documents, or left to the devices of dust. But at least it hadn’t been burnt or gone to flames.
Permitting one vague sigh, he rolled up his sleeves and tended to the great hearth first, allowing heat to find its way to the walls, to the rooms, once more. He’d sent a few notes to fellow members earlier, to see if anyone else would be interested in assisting with opening the world again – grateful and appreciative for aid of any kind.
That didn’t mean he’d rest on his laurels though, and the monolith began to snag at the ivory cloths covering the tables and chairs.
