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.

	We began preparations as soon as we received the warning, but there were some... miners, others... who we could not reach in time, and some who refused to come. Nevertheless... [... she gives a number, it's most of the population of Cygnus, give or take ~1000] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Everything we could carry with us. We have some herds with us from outlying farms, and their harvests as well- what remained of either by the time we left, that is. Water - as we believed that it would be precious here and of no use to an empty country. Metals, minerals and ores from the mines, what we could get before they collapsed. The majority of what we brought is knowledge- tomes, records, magical tokens and charms, and those who can use them, or at least were once able to.

I will see to extra tents being designated for the preservation of your library.

[He nods and bids you back into a tent, it is blessedly cool after the blazing trip.]

Meat, fruit, vegetables and water may be kept, for now, in whatever shelter you build. Take the time you need to settle your people, as I realize it is no small task.

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 western to southwestern 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.

If you have any questions or concerns, I will hear them.
