With my newly forged saw finally in hand, I’ve unlocked the sacred gates to the kingdom of carpentry and countless wooden wonders await! And one of the first of these is leather production. Yes, leatherworking: the noble art of dunking hides into suspicious barrels of bubbling and foul smelling chemicals while trying not to spill any of it on you.

Of course, nothing ever goes smoothly in this realm. What should be a simple task… such as “gather limestone,” will likely spiral into a chaotic scavenger hunt involving rogue wildlife, broken tools, and at least one existential crisis. I fully expect detours, disasters, and possibly a dead end… hopefully not a literal one. But hey, that’s half the fun!

Meanwhile, the dream of a fortified house still looms large. Our current abode? A charming dirt shack with all the elegance of a compost heap. If I can make even a dent in that upgrade, I’ll consider it a win. So come along, brave soul. Let’s conjure some magic, dodge a few disasters, and try not to die in the process. It’s going to be a ride.
