Who: Any
Where: At the base of the great mountain
When: King's Year 199, early autumn
What:

[The great mountain is the largest mountain on the content known as the First Land. It is a marker that can be seen over most of the lands of Pyxis and Canis for its inspiring height. The crystal city, in all of its marvels is built into the western side of it, perhaps a fourth of the way up in a valley between it and the nearest mountain.

Its peak is obscured by the clouds, and no traveler or climber ascending to its great top has ever come back alive, leading most to simply accept that it was a dwelling place of the Gods and thus, no place for man or his ilk.

Today, at its base, a priest is pouring over detailed construction plans that seem to shift and expand under their own magic as he pens in the countries and supplies as they come in.

Great flags of black are set in an enormous circle, stretching out of sight in an enormous circle, and far into the lands that are considered Pyxis.

A great deal of shelters are set up, most tent at the moment, within the circle. Food and water getting the first stone structures erected and thus far are without guard.

A young Ophiuchus of Caduceus cut greets you as you approach, and waves you to the table that the hooded, red lined priest sits.]

His excellency has requested you report directly to him. Please hurry and send your representative.

	Those who have had their lands flooded and those of smaller ruined port towns have all been sent. The numbers are estimated to be [a fairly accurate number goes here, suitable for a small seafaring nation]. Dulfim has not yet been evacuated but arrangements are being made.

	Bid them to hurry, there is little time. [He makes a few notations on the map and it changes in front of your eyes.] Do you have as fair of an estimate of supplies? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Our Lady will arrive with the best of our stores and with the most able hands of our people.

Those here now are refugees, but we bring with us food enough to last this caravan a few months time, distillation devices and water, as many building supplies salvaged from the lands lost as our numbers could manage to take with us...

[Another official takes out an inventory of all the supplies not used up in the trip, and another list with an estimate of what more will come and in how much time, handing these over.]

	Should it be deemed necessary, word may be sent to Our Lady to have materials taken from the deconstructed towns and shipped to Pavo along the Aquilon. Unfortunately we are unequipped to handle such heavy materials past that point. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	We may see to the arrangements from there. ... Please bear in mind that very little outside of here will survive come the new year. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	All haste is being made. The second wave of arrivals from our nation will be the last of those officially arranged. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[He nods.]

For the spirits you may brew there is a central storehouse with a cellar, it is the only safe place with the heat for it. Meat, fruit, vegetables and water may be kept, for now, in whatever shelter you build.

Some rudimentary shelters are available, and a great number of tents. They have been specially treated and you will find the inside of them cool no matter the heat outside. Do not let any worker take themselves beyond exhaustion, rest, water and food are necessary.

You will be assigned to the eastern block. Your designation of the wall will begin here and here. [He indicates the placement on the map.]

Materials and tools will be provided. Work only at night, light will be provided. The Gods are not without generosity, and conscientious work will be rewarded with far more than mere survival. You may tailor your area as you see fit.

Any questions?
