Birch Lodge

Mukuru left with Shala, and Kutai decides to make a birch lodge to be used as a meditation hut

[10:49] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov): first bring me a paga
[10:50]  Őℜİム (0Subira Resident) smiled, "Yes Master, right way," she said seeing a green beetle then picked it up to put on her shoulder and giggled while filling it crawl.
[10:50] nadi (Nara Zsun): tal Haruspex
[10:52]  Őℜİム (0Subira Resident) shouts: washed her hands in the cold water, it was much colder than before and perhaps signaled a change in weather. After drying her hands on a rep cloth she opened the cold box, spotting 2 more bowls of paga and grabbed one of them.
[10:54] nadi (Nara Zsun): Tal oria smiles
[10:55]  Őℜİム (0Subira Resident) moved back to the Haruspex with bowl in hand then lifted up for him to drink. Feeling the beetle on her shoulder caused her to twitch a little.
[10:55]  Őℜİム (0Subira Resident): "May I serve your drink Master?" -she asked
[10:55] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov) loks at the pretty and lovely slave "yes, girl you can
[10:56]  Őℜİム (0Subira Resident) extended strong arms to give the vessel to the Master. She giggled loudly as the insect made its way to her hands. "I hope this will be very tasty for oyu Master," she said and smiled seeing nadi.
[10:57]  Őℜİム (0Subira Resident): *you
[10:58] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov) bends over to Oria and takes the bowl from her slender but strong arms
[10:59] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov) while he drinks he speaks "I intended to seek berries to night, but i see we have a gap in the wall of wagons, I will build a visitors hut, for meditation and such, I need the help of both of you girls
[11:00] nadi (Nara Zsun): yes Master, turning her head noticed the space of the wagon circle
[11:01]  Őℜİム (0Subira Resident) perked up as she listened to the information, "yes Master, that sounds like fun," she said as she looked in the direction they were looking.
[11:02] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov) drinks his paga and gives the vessel back to Oira
[11:02] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov) sees the birch trees
[11:03]  Őℜİム (0Subira Resident) takes the bowl from him and holds it,
[11:03] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov): we go to those trees
[11:03]  Őℜİム (0Subira Resident) smiled to nadi and whisper, "Have you built a wagon before?" -she asked while playing with her bugs
[11:04] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov): ooh yes, but we build a hut now
[11:06] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov) arrives at the birch trees "i will cut a few small ones which will be the frame of the hut"
[11:07] nadi (Nara Zsun): listens as the Haruspex explains his wishes... smiles looking over at the family of creatures scampering about to hide for the humans

[11:07]  Őℜİム (0Subira Resident) knelt near the trees with white bark then glanced around the open land. Excitedly she watched as the Master spoke about chopping a tree then looked up, wondering which way it might fall.
[11:08] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov) takes an enormous axe, normally ment for battling Kur, but perfect size for cutting birch trees
[11:09] nadi (Nara Zsun): backs away slightly hoping the falling tree will not damage the slaves when it falls
[11:09]  Őℜİム (0Subira Resident) eyes grew wide and she looked to nadi, "That is a big axe," she said then moved a little towards the wagon for safety purposes once the tree would fall.
[11:10] nadi (Nara Zsun): joins oria a distance from the Master as he began swinging the huge axe
[11:11] nadi (Nara Zsun): whispers to oria I think the Master has done this before. He appears skilled at swinging that axe
[11:11] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov) swings the axe and aims at the underside of the tree then hits it with full force, under a certain angle
[11:11]  Őℜİム (0Subira Resident) cheered the Master on by clapping for his hard work of chopping at the tree. She closed her mouth though hoping to talk about everything was witnessing for the first time. But then spoke loud enough for the Master to hear, "Please be careful Master,"
[11:14] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov) wears some protection for his eyes "yes, girl I will" he knows even a famous Ubar died fro a wood splinter which went through his eye in the brain
[11:16] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov) wears someleather protection with very thin gaps, so no splinters could pierce his visual organ, he swings the axe again and hits the tree again
[11:17] nadi (Nara Zsun): jumps at the sound of the giant axe hitting the tree with such force. Slides closer to oria
[11:17] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov) aims the axe now at theother side of teh birch and hits it there
[11:19]  Őℜİム (0Subira Resident) jumps at the vibration of each swing, as if feeling it pulsate through the dry ground. She gasps then looks up to see which way the tree was to lean.
[11:20] nadi (Nara Zsun): curiosity gets the better of nadi, moving so she can watch the Master as he again swings the huge axe with a thud against the tree. Covers her ears the sound vibrating through the trees
[11:21]  Őℜİム (0Subira Resident) watched as green leaves fell like feathers to the ground and for a moment felt sad as the tree was loosing its life, but she knew it would help to provide a home for those in need. She looked to nadi and had a similar expression of excitement mixed with concern.
[11:22] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov) has hit th birch few times now and then presses against the tree so that it will fall to the other side then were the girls are sitting. He has to use consideral strength but then with a loud snap the tree falls
[11:23] nadi (Nara Zsun): jumps hearing the thunderous sound of the tree crashing to the ground
[11:24] nadi (Nara Zsun): looking at the large trunk of the tree the Master has felled and wonders if oria an nadi had the strength to drag it to where the Master wished to build
[11:24] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov) cuts of the branches of the tree so a naked white black pole remains "you girls can bring the branches to the spot of Mukuru's wagon, once i have cut a second tree "
[11:24]  Őℜİム (0Subira Resident) squealed, lifting her shoulders as it hit the ground. A few birds took flight franticly away from the large thing just in time to not get smashed.
[11:25]  Őℜİム (0Subira Resident): "Yes Master"
[11:25] nadi (Nara Zsun): yes Master watche from a safe distance as he continues his work
[11:25] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov): not yet

[11:27] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov) gives some hard hits with the Kur crusher axe against the birch tree, the splinter flies around, but his eyes are protected, and he also swings with closed eyes, having the aim already visualized in his mind
[11:28]  Őℜİム (0Subira Resident) moved towards nadi's area and knelt as she watched the Master lift his muscular arms while grasping the handle of the axe. A blush formed across her cheeks and she did not look away.
[11:28] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov) quickly finishes f this tree also, and then pushes the tree aside so it falls in the long grass of the plains
[11:29] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov) cuts the braches from the tree also, laying them a side so they can be a nice cover together with bosk furs as a roof for the hut
[11:30] nadi (Nara Zsun): may we begin to gather the branches Master....
[11:30] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov): yes, Nadi you can start that
[11:31]  Őℜİム (0Subira Resident) noticed the sun began to set so jumped up quickly to help gather some branches. She moved near the downed trees carefully to figure which would be easier to carry first.
[11:32] nadi (Nara Zsun): bending over starts to pick up some good sized branches shaking them so the leaves fall to the ground. Moves closer to the the cluster of trees not wanting to miss any of the pieces knowing they should make use of all of the supplies the sky gods provide for them

[11:33] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov) walks to the stables and returns with a big work kaiila, he also took some strong leather roped. He binds the ropes around a yoke around the neck of the mount, then he connects the ropes at one of the just cut birch poles and he drives the animal to the place where the wagon of Mukuru had stand, Mukuru the old Ubar who was now travelling over the Eastern Plains with his wagon and kajira Shala
[11:35]  Őℜİム (0Subira Resident) shouts: bends and lifts a few branches but then gets a small splinter from one as it moved through a finger. She sighed momentarily from the pain but would remove it later in the day. Making a bundle under her arm she takes the good ones away but would return for me.
[11:35] nadi (Nara Zsun): settles to the ground laying her bundle of wood close to the logs, kneels and waits for the Master's next command
[11:37]  Őℜİム (0Subira Resident) lays down some branches then goes back to get some more. She wipes some sweat from her brow, then strolls past the pond.
[11:39] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov): "girls I want you to remove birch skins from the pole and use it together with bosk furs to cover the frame of birch poles i will make as a basis" he then bends the pole and also cuts them in smaller pieces, with some bending and binding he manages the get a frame of wood for the lodge
[11:40] nadi (Nara Zsun): smiles watching the Master's skill as he construct the hut. Carefully binding the trunks of the trees together with heavy rence ropes. Ant then stretching the skins over the frame. Watches his steady skilled hands create a handsome hut.
[11:42] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov): takes some asts from the trees and satrts building the roof cover made of furs, asts, leaves and birch skin
[11:43]  Őℜİム (0Subira Resident) walked back over slowly with a bigger bundle this time. She spit a little as a bug flew into her mouth and shook her head. Strolling towards the the other bundle, she laid the new batch on top. Some of the branches had insects so after she was done she dusted her skin off.
[11:44] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov): "the dangerous, the tree cutting and the bending of the frame is done, now you girls can help to complete the covering of the lodge
[11:45] nadi (Nara Zsun): yes Master....
[11:45]  Őℜİム (0Subira Resident) moved towards the lodge as it looked like a stable structure. "Yes Master"
[11:46] nadi (Nara Zsun): goes to her Master's wagon for some heavy bosk hair thread an large needles to sew together the many hides and furs to make the cover.
[11:48] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov) shakes the hut, to check if it will not collaps under the first autumn storm, he takes ropes and wooden spikes, also called tent herrings. He rams the herrings in the ground f the plains, then he connects the topes to the top of the frame and connects it at all four corners, as far as possible at a round hut, to the spikes in the ground
[11:49] nadi (Nara Zsun): from under her Master's wagon, opening the trunk of treasures, takes two shark tooth needles and a ball of bosk hair thread and kneels at the pile of furs and hides. Reaches out to oria handing her a needle....here oria let us sew the hides together tightly so the rain cannot drip through to the inside of the lodge.
[11:49]  Őℜİム (0Subira Resident) watched the Master work and then nadi, "May I assist. I do not know how to make a covering," she said with intrigue
[11:50]  Őℜİム (0Subira Resident) moved over to help nadi with the sewing
[11:50] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov): yes, please help Nadi
[11:55]  Őℜİム (0Subira Resident) sat on the ground, taking up some of the hide and a very sharp needle. Her eyes gazed over to see how nadi was sewing and she copied for several ahns and felt her fingers ache..
[[11:58]  Őℜİム (0Subira Resident) stretched her back in a deep yawn and watched the fur hide size grow. "Master this is going to be a wonderful hut"
[11:59] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov): yes, i think so too
[12:01]  Őℜİム (0Subira Resident) glanced up from her work and watched the Master for a little while then lowered her eyes smiling in her thoughts of him

[[12:02] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov): i could use a cold paga now, after the good work
[12:02]  Őℜİム (0Subira Resident) laid down her work, "yes Master, " she said then walked tot he kitchen
[12:05]  Őℜİム (0Subira Resident) turned then saw the Master nearby and smiled with the cold bowl in hand
[12:06] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov): specially the axe swinging made me thirsty
[12:07]  Őℜİム (0Subira Resident) knelt demurely to the ground, opening soft thighs and held the bowl high, "Master, this is some very cold paga because it was all of the way in the back. May I please serve you Master?"
[12:09] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov): yes Oria
[12:09] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov) leans back ward against the tree, he is quite tired of the work at the end of the day
[12:10]  Őℜİム (0Subira Resident) smiled then handed the master the drink. She lightly flailed her hands in the air to try and make them warm, then rested them on her thigh.
[12:11]  Őℜİム (0Subira Resident): "Master, that was some serious work you did with cutting the trees, was it scary Master?"
[12:12] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov) takes the bowl from her hand then drinks thirstily "no, if one is careful nothing can happen. If not a tree can fall at one, and he can break a leg, spine or skull"
[12:13]  Őℜİム (0Subira Resident) shivered then felt the ache inher finger of the splinter and showed it to him, "Master I got a little splinter....," she said in a confident tone to mask that it actually was hurting.
[12:15] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov): hmm then we need a healer, but that one we chased away so let me look
[12:16] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov) takes her finger and puls it close to his eyes. He sees the small wooden splinter "we must remove it immediate before it infects your skin or worse blood
[12:17]  Őℜİム (0Subira Resident) innocently looked at him with pouted lips and then held her left hand much closer. "It is my index finger Master," she said as if
[12:17]  Őℜİム (0Subira Resident): ..begging for his help
[12:18] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov) places the nails of his two thumbs near the splinter and presses, he sees the tip of the splinter coming out. He then takes a pincet he normally sues to move arrow points and picks the splinter form her skin
[12:20] Ronja (sandra Plassitz) is offline.
[12:20]  Őℜİム (0Subira Resident) winces and closed her eyes as the thing get removed from her finger. "Ouch.....thank you so much Master," she said with a large smile
[12:20] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov) keeps her finger still, his thumb nails press again, till some drops of blood flow out "this is to remove small wood remnenats and to wash away some infected fluid
[12:22]  Őℜİム (0Subira Resident) watched in awe of the Master's skill and only half winced this time. She did not want to seem afraid and stuck her chest out.."yes Master thank you..."
[12:23] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov) let then flow some paga over the small wound "this will kill all infections". He then releases her finger

[12:24]  Őℜİム (0Subira Resident) gazed to his blue fabric and winced at the sting of the beverage on the small wound, "Master that.... is a nice pattern," she said very curious of the texture but did not touch his clothes.
