[ Nebula does not like this form of communication. She regular turns it off - sorry twinkies! - and avoids using it all. In rare instances, she does if someone reaches out first.

Today, Nebula reaches out to SOLVUNN with a few simple lines: ]

The Council has granted us an old stable to fix up.

We'll be setting up a board inside where you can place tasks, jobs, request for training or other community notes. It'll be primarily used for helping with delivery tasks from suitable couriers between the cities. Do not offer if you cannot defend yourself.

It can become a space for working together or teaching those who need it new skills.

Anyone can use it and locals can post up jobs themselves.

If you want to help set things up you can.

Nebula.

[ Of course, she doesn't mean to actually sign it but barely using this form means she doesn't know it's signed! Or think to hide it! But anyway, any Solvunnites who have met her probably know that direct manner of speaking anyway, right? ]

Not a bad idea. Let me know if you need help clearing the stable.

[suplexer]

This is such a great idea, Nebula!

[ Tifa's used to this sort of thing from home as well. Most large cities or even decently sized towns would have a noticeboard where people could post if they needed help. Even with the most mundane things. That hadn't necessarily stopped them from pitching in for some extra gil or items. ]

I'm down, both to take on jobs and to help with whatever you might need for the setup.

You said we can offer help with training, too?

[furibund]

More help won't be unwelcome. I have plenty of experience rebuilding structures now but our materials are usually more advanced.

[ preparing wood... for a building, for example ]

[furibund]

You're welcome to come by.

You can. Figured if there's a listing for anything else, Summoned looking for help or offering it can give it too. There's too many people who show up who can't care for themselves.

[lightkeeping]

Lots of metal, not so much wood, right?

[furibund]

Mostly.

Some tech that does it on its own, but you'd have to have money to spend on it.

[ and the guardians Do have money but they have a lot to repair and a city to care for ]

[lightkeeping]

Nothing automatic here. You've seen my compound, right? Did that from the ground up.

[suplexer]

Sure. When's a good time?

And yeah, that makes sense. Though what do you mean, can't care for themselves?

[furibund]

They'd probably not know what to do with it.
I saw - it was good work.

[furibund]

Most any time I'm around.

[ read: she's a workaholic :') ]

Only that they've never had to live in conditions where they must learn to house and hunt for themselves. Let alone possible dangers on the road.

[lightkeeping]

It took a few months. We'll need some extra hands for this.

[suplexer]

Alright. I'll see about coming by before one of my shifts at the inn, then.

[ Tifa isn't too sure how she can help out just yet, but she'll figure it out. ]

Have the monsters not always been around? Or have they been more aggressive lately?
Either way, I'm happy to help with escorting people. Or even teaching people how to defend themselves, if it comes to that.

[furibund]

Maybe. Maybe not.
I have plenty of time.

[furibund]

They've gotten more aggressive.
Even if they weren't there are children and people brought here who've never lifted a weapon.

[lightkeeping]

Sure. But you don't want to be working on it forever.

[suplexer]

Do we know why? Is it because of the Heralds?

[ It does always seem to go back to the gods, from what she's observed. ]

I'd like to hope that no one would let children wander outside the settlement alone, but it's true that not everyone wants to learn how to fight. I'm happy to be their bodyguard.
