Catering ages

Since the Forberg expedition consists of more and more people, we´ve had a meeting about new food resources and how to acquire them. B.P. told us, that one of the Resehren-ages and another age found in J’taeri had been ages of the guild of caterers. We agreed to visit these ages this weekend – maybe we can obtain some of our food directly from there!

In Afelahn, Tom Woods and I set up lights in most of the rooms in my home base. They are simple and not very pretty, but they´ll do.
Although the age is not complete yet, I´ve decided to start using the base. At first, there´ll be only limited access, for expedition personnel.

I brought a crate full of firemarbles from Dasharen to Afelahn, I´m planning to design some lamp variants for my ages with them.

New ages

When I was ill, work didn´t end for the Forberg expedition. Due to the new guys who had joined some months ago, they have managed to start work on half a dozen additional ages, mostly from linking books they found in Resehren.

One of the most interesting ages is Dasharen, a kind of a residential area, built into a underground cavern system. The age itself is an arid, hot environment, mostly consisting of desert and rock formations. Dasharen is similar to a small town, built for around 100 to 150 residents. There were no remains of D´ni found there, so either the plague has not reached the place, or the residents fled beforehand.
Near the caverns, on the outside, there is a rather expanded cemetary. Our historians speculate, that this community was mostly self sufficient, for unknown reasons, so they buried their dead here instead of one of the usual burial ages.

Alitnee is another new age. It is cold and windy, but with a bright sun. The only place we are able to reach is the top of a high pinnacle with constructions made of metal that appear to be viewing platforms.
The place is full of flying creatures of various kinds and sizes, some of which are breeding their youth at the rocky walls of the pinnacles. It is a great place for bird watchers, although the winds are sometimes really uncomfortable.

B.P. promised me to show me more ages over the next weeks. Looking forward to those!
