Construction Begins

The dwarves set to work quickly to begin building. They stacked out a set of jungle land that would do as a pasture for their small livestock they brought with them. And sized up the base of the Founding Stone for mining. They quickly dug out an entrance with a winding set of ramps for future trade caravans to use as well as a quick access stair well. In addition, they started setting up the pasture lands.

The plan envisioned by Morul was to make the pasture lands walled off & only accessible via an underground route. So mining began both at the entrance at the base of the founding stone as well as in the pasture lands. Immediately Galena was found which if the forges could get set up would provide some Lead works as well as the possibility of Silver...

As the construction continued, the first set of rooms to be built would be the future site of the trade depot as well as the future offices of the manager, broker & record keeper. Also, the first real encounter with the wild life happened. A small herd of Elephants roamed between the base of The Twin Daggers. The dwarves ran away at first, but then just tried to continue working. Spending extra energy to get some fortifications up to keep out such massive creatures.

Trade Depot storage & office layout as well as unfinished connecting hall to pasture access stairway:


Dwarves continued to fall asleep on the job & the connecting of the pasture to the entrance via underground was taking too long. The dwarves needed beds to sleep on. So the tunnel construction was suspended & a dormitory as well as a woodworkers shop were sited.


Once the carpenter's workshop & dormitory got sited, a feast hall location & distillery location were picked for construction, as the alcohol was starting to run low and that became the top priority.
