I’m not sure they have a name for the aftermath of a dragon having a bbq, Hilda. But that’s probably close enough. I know the Inn renovations have been keeping a lot of us busy, but the devastation from the aftermath of the monster attacks left a lot of places either completely destroyed or close to it.

The Red Path was important for a lot of reasons to the natives here and if they want to get some vegetation and seedlings replanted there so it’s not a wasteland come spring. That means we’re a little limited on time to get things transferred and planted before winter officially hits. At least what the desert calls winter, anyway...

Anyway indeed and before we get too far into Sylvain’s thoughts on the weather - we’ve come up with an idea on what to do. It involved a little fundraising and some talking here and there, but we’ve found those willing to donate funds to purchase some supplies to make this happen or the supplies themselves from merchants around Cadens. Some of the soil we brought back from the Nether will also be going to good use here in hopes of making sure everything planted does as well as it can, and hopefully it’ll be good as new soon. Or, well, as close to it as we can get, considering.

While we’ll be out there working on this regardless, we wanted to extend the invitation to anyone else who might be willing to join in. It shouldn’t take up too much of your time, and any help would be greatly appreciated to help the Red Path recover a little quicker. Promise there’s also a round of drinks back at the Sarstina for anyone who stops by.

I wouldn't repurpose--but I have the plans, and the system is scalable depending on what you need. What are you planting?

[philancer]

Uhh. I have no idea. Claude's the brains and Hilda's the creativity here, I'm just the muscle.

[ He's basically assuming they'll hand him green things and a shovel and point him in a direction and that's all he has to worry about. ]

I know they've been in talks with the restoration committee to learn about what kind of vegetation and things were original to the Path, so we could keep the restoration as close to the original as possible.

[techmaturgy]

Are you sure you aren't giving yourself proper credit?

[philancer]

I dunno, I might be giving myself too much credit, honestly.

[techmaturgy]

That’s not very civic-minded of you.

[philancer]

that is DEFINITELY more their job.

[techmaturgy]

Should I tell them you're slacking, then?

[philancer]

Nah, I'll make up for it when they actually put me to work.

[techmaturgy]

I'll see you out there, then.
