Still winter.
Dragon Cypress and Ink Orchid were busy in the mountains.
They selected flat, large stones, loaded them onto the Dominating Throne, and transported them to the North Mountain Reservoir.
The reservoir's dam needed large stones for its edges, especially on the water-facing side, which was constantly soaked. Clay wouldn't work. Only hard stones could withstand the water immersion.
Moreover, the stones had to be laid as tightly fitted as possible.
This dam might need to last for ten or even dozens of years. It had to be built strong enough.
Later, Dragon Cypress planned to invite a Mountain Lord-Level Warrior with Earth System Abilities to solidify the dam.
Dragon Cypress and Ink Orchid left early and returned late, the Dominating Throne transporting stones trip after trip.
Day after day.
Time flowed like a mountain stream.
Winter passed and spring arrived, marking the busiest season of the year.
