Rance was in charge as the one most experienced, and Jigano let him answer Freina's question as the two men worked steadily away on the shingles. Once the first hole was fixed the bard set back on his heels and gave the raven a rueful smile. "They are and it will, I'm sorry to say. Usually when people look for a building to move into they check the roof first... even if the interior needs more work, at least it's dry work that can be done in any weather." He shrugged, though, his grin turning a little lopsided. "Ah well. Consider it a learning experience for when you're ready to find your own place. If we can get her through the winter she should be able to gain enough work to be able to barter for more help come spring."
A learning experience all around, it would seem, but he had offered his help and he wouldn't stop now just because the job had gotten harder. With a quiet grunt he rose and picked his way delicately towards the next hole he could see, pulling shingles away to reveal the extent of the damage. He did that with the other holes as well, letting Rance follow behind to hammer in the new boards before circling back to help nail the shingles into place over the patches.
