Rorikstead, Skyrim, Wednesday morning

Cold enough for you? Well, you only have to endure one more day of working and helping the poor dragon-sieged folks before moving on to places without dragons (at least, as far as you know...) so everyone out of bed! Breakfast on delicious mammoth steaks! Help the people of Rorikstead rebuild!

Or hide under the covers. We'll only judge a little.

The rooms of Frostfruit Inn are sparse, containing twin beds for the students and queen-sized beds for the adults who requested them, a table and a dresser. Each room also contains a bowl of local fruits and vegetables, and is lit by wall sconces made of goat horn. Bathrooms...well, thank God for Barry, right? There's also the hole in the ground if you're feeling authentic.

Anders would get up and go help with the construction. Eventually. Right now it was cold, and bed was warm, and he was going to stay right where he was as long as he could.

He drowsily half-opened his eyes, decided he didn't like the light,and shut them closed tightly again.

The large common room is the heart of Frostfruit Inn. On one side sits a bar, where you can order drinks and local delicacies from Mralki. There is a large fireplace at the center of the common room to keep everyone warm, while tables and chairs line the walls of the remaining real estate.

Today seemed like a perfect day for curling up by the common room fireplace, sipping hot spiced wine and taking advantage of the wifi (thanks, Barry) to watch Tired Valley on her phone. Alana always appreciated a good fish-out-of-water story.

Flick wasn't really feeling like doing anything but sitting in a comfortable chair and relaxing. He'd grabbed some fruit for breakfast and was kicked back, listening to the bard and contemplating getting up and doing something more productive.

Nah.

A bard roams the common room, strumming her lute as she sings various traditional songs of Skyrim. Dance, or request a song!

Now that Cowflop Farm is back up and operational, there's only a few structures left that need work. Lemkil's roof needs to be replaced, and while the man insists he can do it alone, other Nords will point any students hoping to help one last time in his general direction. Likewise, at least one more home needs to have holes in its wall patched, so get ready to lift some stones, everyone!

After spending time on a roof yesterday, Barry opted for hauling stones. You know. For the variety.

After sleeping in, Anders found his way to the construction site. He ended up helping with the walls, which he didn't mind -- the plaster and paint were much easier to deal with than heavy stones had been.

He hummed a song he'd picked up from the bard at the Inn to himself as he worked.

Nathan had done a lot of hiking yesterday so today he felt like he should help out. Stone lifting wasn't a strong suit but he did his best to help where he could. He did have a lot of endurance.

Since the wall seemed to have plenty of people working on it, Johnny decided to help out with the roof. Of course, first he had to talk Lemkil into letting him help, but once that was squared away with some of the old Storm charm ("Come on, man, I just want to help out. I'll even just mix the tar or whatever it is you need.") Johnny was hard at miserable work.

Cosette had actually enjoyed the adventure of working on the roof yesterday, enough so that she was up on this roof again today and singing cheerfully so long as she had the spare breath to do so.

Kitty was hard at work on the roof today, though she kept offering to help fix up anything else that needed to be done if that would be better. But until he came up with something, she'd be learning herself some roofing skills.

There's a mountain range close by; the local Nords have supplied ponies for the students to ride if they wish to explore it. Or you could simply use your time off to ride around the tundra to the east, where you can find small shrines along the roadsides and beautiful flowers.

All right, Edward was going to go for a walk. And walk he did, at least for some measure of time - that's about when he got bored with all the flowers and the rocks and the pretty little everythings and got distracted by the sight of a bandit encampment.

He had intended just to lurk out there for a bit (in outrage, of course) before taking off-- but then he'd spent five seconds too long thinking about their loot and how terrible and illegal it was that they'd likely taken all of that from poor travelers, and they'd noticed him.

He escaped. Eventually.

You should see the other guy.

Travis had done a lot of helping the past few days so today he decided to head out and take a look around. He'd bundled himself into a jacket and yanked up the hood which was keeping him warm enough while he found his way around the cold area.

Thanks for nothing, crappy African internet connection.
