God Is A Game Designer 72 C71 Blushing Summer Day

During the beautiful day, spring has finally ended. It was time for the summer to arrive inside the vortex. It was usually one of the holiday dates ignored by those living inside the vortex due to the constant barrage of heat that engulfed every portion of the land.

Today inside the small town of Sanctuary as the locals singing songs of praise to the coming of summer as children ran into the river, splas.h.i.+ng and laughing others around them with joy-filled eyes.

Many small tables carved by the local artisans and carpenters only after a few days, the surface almost glossy with the finish given to every one of the tables made.

Covering the tables to an almost ridiculous state was the ma.s.sive piles of food that seemed to become almost endless. Fruits, vegetables and even to the surprise of everyone around. Small game like desert rabbits and foxes also had a little place on one of the tables.

One woman bringing over the food, laying down another set of wooden bowls filled with leafy greens felt onto the table. She felt her arm brus.h.i.+ng against another person doing a similar job to hers, her cheeks growing redder by the second as she turned to see a similarly aged man from the army helping out.

It was a rather lovely sight to see both blus.h.i.+ng as they stared at each other, the month of Growth not only the month of Summer starting but also the month of love.

The town had grown from one simple large and straightforward building to house everyone. Currently, sixteen buildings spread out all across the village as the introduction of the newest members of the family had made everything go much faster.

The first building constructed was a large storage hall for the food, water and many other traded goods that the town needed to use on a daily basis.

The next eight buildings constructed were the central places for those with families. The buildings consisted of the upper house and the lower house. Each family was getting either the ground floor or first floor as the homes became apartments then substantial homes.

The next building constructed next to the river was a fis.h.i.+ng dock with drying racks, a set of jars lining along the side of the pier as every worker was squeezing a small gland from each of the flying fish, a very sticky paste getting pushed into the jars.

Along with the paste from these fish the feathers from the fish got taken. Each set of wings from the fish gave roughly. Three hundred feathers which only gave two hundred to two hundred and fifty usable feathers.

Currently, the feathers which were one of the topics of debate were split equally between the civilians and the military. One for comfort and ease of living and the other for arrows and other items.

The next building made was due to the plan Nathan had suggested regarding trade with the city of Sengi. The constructed Inn was here to house incoming merchants and officials that came. While at the moment only a few rooms held some furniture and just a small selection of alcoholic drinks which was one of the few items brought by the vampires.

The Inn was also one of the few buildings with both vampires and other mortal races working together. This move helped ease the tensions of having the immortal bloodsuckers suddenly show up at the front door of this new village.

The last four buildings made at the request of the military for defensive purposes. The entry into the valley now had one ma.s.sive palisade around the entrance with two watchtowers and a single wooden gate to allow entry.

This building became a high priority after not only the vampires arrived, but many carts with others arrived. The vampires coming was not the only new addition as almost the same amount of mortal races came along with them. Farmers, merchants, workers and others who worked with the vampires.

This event drew the attention of General Lee who suggested and quickly pushed the idea through as having hundreds of people just wandering into the valley was not the best idea around.

Fifty soldiers always on duty at the wall every day as the defense of the valley and the treasure it held was to be protected. It was standard now to see hundreds of guards patrolling around the outer limits to protect the grounds.

The water temple was one of the few places that had seen a flurry of activity. Soon after Nathan had left a small group of villagers and guards came together to found a temple in honor of Nathan. Cleaning up the temple and with the help of many of the new vampires had turned it into a real temple wors.h.i.+pping the man.

The temple grew at a rapid pace till almost all of the town had officially joined, small groups of people still supported the other religions, and unlike the other cities of the Dusk this was allowed and supported by the people.

The last area in the valley was a small mine that started in the north area, the few workers still around the entrance as they continued to dig around as the prospectors continued to use necessary earthen magic to discover veins.

The critical part about the vortex was the materials available to mine, due to the previous religious area the rights of mining never got fulled exploited, this was due to it almost always being outlawed. Today now this law had been destroyed by the need to survive.

The miners had found traces in the Northen Area but due to the disruption of the natural Celestial power in the area around them it currently posed a difficulty trying to find or even access such veins.

The small town of Sanctuary grew in such a short time to become a busy and loved area.

It was such a shame that a power struggle had already begun inside the newly formed area.
