Well I don't know if this belongs here or not, but this and the RP section are close to the same. Anyways, this is a little something that I wrote within the first little while of my new fort(or Compound as I call it) using IT 000's Corrosion mod. If you haven't checked it out, you should!
Move from said board above to here.

The Lights of Symmetry have embarked on their quest to build anew. Descendants of the Furs of Legend, it's a given that they must succeed.
They arrived at their decided destination that would sooner be known as "GlowPoint".
Ember: "Hold up everyone!"
Flicker: "What is it?"
Ember: "Haven't you noticed a pattern yet?"
Flicker: "Pattern..?"
Ember: "Yes! I've noticed a few Star Spider Colonies, as well with Bee hives in the last little while. Not only that but there seems to be a fair
amount of trees around, as well as shrubs, sand, a river, and what appears to be some clay deposits. I think this is what we've been looking for!"
Flicker: "Hmm... Maybe you're right, Ember... Okay everyone! We need to get the ball rolling! Ember, I want you to take a quick scout around and
see if there is any immediate danger and if possible figure out how long it will be before those infected catch up with us."
Ember: "Sir, yes, sir!"
Flicker shakes her head, "Sir..?"
~Flickers Diary~
They all set about their tasks. Piras was ordered to dig out an area for farming so that Luminous and I could get working on the crops.
Aura was to cut down some of the surrounding trees so they could later be used to build the fortifications. Candle scurried to set up the Bee Hive
and populate it, Blaze not being able to cook at the moment was forced to haul the wood along with the rest of the idlers.
With direct orders and careful watch, Aura was able to help the others construct the walls in no time and after awhile they did not need supervision
to complete the rest of what was required, allowing Aura to continue his lumbering.
Spring passed and Summer Rolled in. We had finish a large portion of the walls, and were scavenging what we could from the
surrounding area. Lo' and behold some survivors rolled by. Saying they had escaped a crumbling utopia a year back. They were a bit skeptical about
whether or not this hamlet would meet the same fate, but a bit of coaxing and assuring, they decided to stay. Of course. They were not of the same,
not pure as we are. The new comers would be further known as "The Numbered".
The Horde was on us. Luminous had. . . dissapeared. But other than that everyone was okay, a bit damp in their spirits, but okay. Aura took
up the challenge of making some old rudimentary weapons. Crossbows. They'd have to do something. Ember and one of the new comers, who went by the
name of Cantus, headed up onto the walls. It took them a good long while, many bolts, and a whole lot of cursing before
one of them had been cut down.
Bone bolts aren't as much good as we all hoped. . . They'll be up there another good long while clearing the infected. Elsewhere we need to get that
windmill to grind our wheats, and the screw press to squeeze our honey, that shouldn't take long. Things aren't looking bad at this moment, I don't
see why other places have had such trouble staying alive. . .
Great! Aura got the windmill built after Piras
finally got the foundations and the plans laid out. Chicken shit. . . Scared of a few scrawny
infected that can't even reach her. . . Alas the lack of bolts laying about is making it difficult to dispatch the ones milling about outside the walls.
There is a group of them on the other side of the river which seemed to be killing each other. It was a strange event to watch, but that's a few more
that we don't have to deal with. I'm all for friendly fire if it's happening on the enemy's side. Other than the basics not much is going on, we still
need to finish the bridge, but that'll have to wait until we can clear these bastards out of here.

That's it for now, I will be adding more if you like it or not xD
I wasn't thinking, and didn't take pictures along those developments. I'll take one of what has currently been done, and if you'd all like to see how it progresses I'd be more than happy to keep taking shots.
