Hands to build a house; Hearts to build a home

For tools Anann has two luperci made axes and hatchets. They are metal and a bit larger than human made ones. There are also four wooden pry bars that have been made from straight limbs/young trees. The ramps she made are notched so that once the logs get to a certain point they cant roll/slide back down. The horses will pull the logs up the ramps to the notches near the end of the ramps were the wolves can then finish the process =). There is also hammers and nails she scavenged up, but those wont come into play tell we get to the roof.


She had never doubted that Anatoliy would show up. A smile spreading across her face as soon as he came into view. Yeah, I figure it's about time I had a proper home. Though it would be a simple one. A one room house and a floor of dirt. But she would have the high ceiling that human constructions often lacked for a creature of her height. Thank you for coming Toliy, she said, smiling sweetly. How are you with an axe or hatchet? She asked, still reclined against the trunk of the tree. A hand resting on the wide belt at her hips. The horses will do most the heavy lifting. We will just need to fit the logs. Framing the roof was going to be a little more interesting, but she was using much smaller timber for that than what walls were to built from.

No more had she finished and she spotted Niro on his way from the stables. Anann waved, noticing it seemed he had brought the red-tail with him that she had noticed in the stables. It was good to see he had had some luck with his traps and that he had gotten his gloves not a moment too soon. Sure, tether him wherever you like. There wasn't a whole lot of options aside from the trees that were left standing. Though there were a couple of young trees that significantly smaller and lower limbs that would probably work as a decent perch for the bird. Rurik. Liliya. Glad you could make it! Having arrived just moments after Niro it hadn't taken long at all help to arrive.

They had enough hands to get started now. Excited to get going Anann decided that might as well get things set into motion. Heath is going to work with the horses. Ive made to set of ramps, so they will have to moved from time to time, but otherwise the horses will move most of the logs. We will just need to fit the logs and get them in place. She explained once she had everyone's attention. Because the logs will fit together at the corners, we will need to set both sides, then the front and back, and so on. So, if we could split into teams we could work a little faster. So, who is good with an axe or hatchet? Anann would probably end up jumping back and forth from helping Heath with the horses and helping with the fitting of the logs. She hoped everyone would be able to find a job they were comfortable with.
