((Perhaps it has been a few tomorrows, but that only increases your hopes that
this tomorrow of yesterday is really the right tomorrow. What right have I to crush your hopes by posting something today, leaving you with the knowledge that there will be no turn tomorrow?
Er ... That is, yes. Turn.
I've decided to increase the rate at which low-leveled workers level up if they are working alongside people who are more skilled. It's also possible to set up to three students to one teacher, to further increase this, but none of the four will produce anything while training.
Finally,
Please use bold for all actions, and only for actions. Thanks.))
Evergod's Company:
{15}, Luck - One miner has discovered a small cluster of flareflow opals. These highly rare, translucent gemstones appear to have a center of liquid fire, and are said to grant magical abilities to those who hold them ...
{6} - Victor Van Vrikt, the noble governor, takes some large leaves from the jungle, and heads towards the lean-to where the construction workers built a quick shelter for the wounded. Their wounds look quite bad, and he almost uses the leaves as bandages, but notices an unpleasant tingling sensation on his hands. Deducing that the leaves are at least slightly toxic, he decides against 'helping' the smiths with the leaves, instead tossing them deeply into the jungle where they will never be used as bandages again. ((Your int has saved the day.))
The lean-to itself is roughly made, but will not fall apart without outside intervention. The bedding is made from undried hay-like vegetation. It's only marginally better then leaving the patients outside, but people would be demoralized if their friends were left outside while wounded.
People have begun to question the lack of even the most basic of housing.

When Mage aims a spell at the rock, she can feel it pulling at her. She tries to fight it, but finds herself paralyzed. She black out.
Darkness. A void? No light. No sounds. No feeling. There is nothing. Nothing except for the strange feeling that *something greater* is amused.Mage wakes up in the make-shift hospital, shivering uncontrollably and feeling completely drained. One of the construction workers sees that she's awake and feeds her a bowl of hot soup. He explains that she was carried here after suddenly falling over, unconscious.

The Clockateer returns to the camp, gives the eggs to a construction worker, and grabs some tools. Several hours of unsuccessful attempts later, and he has broken several tools, destroyed a few units of stone, and hurt his hands. The masons give him dirty looks.

The herbalist finishes preparing enough fields for herself.
The town hall has been completed. There is barely enough room for everybody to sleep on the floor, but at least they're no longer exposed to the weather.
The military splits its time between training and guarding the area. They did not detect any more kobolds.
Three carpenters cease being carpenters, and head for the mountain to collect gold.
