Frank marched to the head of the table within the council camber with rising anticipation. “Town Management” he vocalized as he took his seat. A new screen displayed upon his HUD.

  What the hell does "Citizens Slain!" mean? Frank sent to his majordomo!

   Therod politely responds despite being chocked at the tone of his Emporer.

  Frank opened the Notifications screen for more details.

   Frank informed Therod. Frank wanted to run out and find whatever killed one of his precious hunters, but he knew he need to wait until morning. Frank sent to the Captain of his guard.

   Narious counciled his Emperor.

  Frank replied sternly to end all discussion. He sent a different message to Soro

  Frank sighed and opened the Buildings screen to review the current stat of the town.

  That is a very short list of buildings for a capital city. He definitely needed to pickup the pace on building up the infrastructure, and he was glad that the longhouse was under construction after seeing the effects of the military tents. The city could not afford any negative morale. There is a definite lack of crafting and economic capacity within the town and very limited military infrastructure. Time to see what is available for 5 town points within the store.

  Nimrod mentioned that the system would show items up to 3x the currently available points to help Frank make long-term decisions about saving or using his points. He had already decided he would be spending the points since Farm, Livestock Area, River Dock, and Trading Post each met a need of the town. He decided to take a look at the the details for Trading Post.

  The creation of a trade network would be critical to sustained growth. Frank did not see how any of the other buildings would add more value. Adding farming or raising livestock would help the food needs of the town, but the trading post allowed access to all products including food. Frank decided to check the River Dock just in case it surprised him.

  The increased fishing yield is very small, and the synergistic relationship with the trading post just reinforces the case for purchasing the trading post. I guess this easy decision. Frank selects the trading post from the store and clicks yes when asked to confirm the purchase. A large round disk appears in Frank's hand as a window with instructions for placing the building token to begin the 12 hour construction process of the system built trading post.

  Frank stands and walks to his room reminding himself to attempt healing sleep again. He failed yesterday to successfully learn the power, but he must keep trying!
