Re-adapt the fish to the new composite structure, adding sacs of the contagion to the fish themselves.
The Caerri are now back to equilibrium. Normalcy starts to return, and cleanliness is now back in force.
Continue research at a faster pace. This is unacceptable.
More Triathi are thrown at the problems!
Give the fortress colonist what he wants.
Continue training/researching potential uses of the Perk, particuliarly their exoskeleton.
The Fortress Colonist retreats into the room attached to the balcony and begins a mysterious construction!
The Grounded Colonist has started yelling his requiremnets at anyone that comes near.
The discovery of the frustrated Perkbreaker sped up proceedings immensely. While the Perks are not domesticated per se, they've at least given up trying to deny the Floatune Riders' commands, which is good enough for now. Their exoskeleton could be used as ok armor, or at the least a stronger tool material than tightened kelp bark.
First lair has a population explosion at this point do to the new food supplies.
Second lair sends out groups to try to capture the shelled beasts and tame them.
Third lair will gather more of the material, then experiment with it. Seeing how it reacts to heat and pressure ect.
The shelled beasts are found to be afraid of swarms, and are thus scared back to second lair except for a few who bolted the wrong ways.
Heat testing of the Deep Material is done with liberal application of Kriblit fire. the material melts after 2 full barrelfuls of it, but remains melded together and container-shaped after cooling, where it had started as multiple chunks. Pressure testing only results in 3 dozen bored Kriblits standing atop a large shell sitting on the Deep Material, and no change in the material aside from a slight tightening right at the start.
Plans are drawn up for a colony outside the car. Expeditions are sent out to locate more resources and animal types. The Peretics mine into the plastic parts of the car and carve them into decorations and trinkets.
Squads are sent out to the south, the west, and the northwest.
