[Canis Area]
*Jace's magic is of limited assistance working with wood and stone; though he's creative with the power he has, most of his contributions to the construction at this point are made through the work of his hands. Earth shamans and those with powerful shapeshifts do most of the hard labor; it's not uncommon to see a djint or a team of wolves dragging stones into place, or a shaman shaping a wall with his bare hands.
Often, Jace brings his band out to scout the area for game or hunt, like several other bands whose talents are better suited to such things. They bring back food enough to stretch the supplies they brought nicely. In the morning, the clans retire to their maze of tents, little different than what they would call a city in the wastes, to eat and swap tales before they sleep.*
