Pelagon
GRP
is within the Great Hall of the North and says to ALL: I walk from the storage shed with what I need to finish off the inside of the main hall, this will have been my 5th trip to the shed and more from other areas gathering all I need, I place what hopefully will be my last load onto the verandah section of the Hall then opening the door I walk inside, it was like walking into an ice cavern but that is to be expected as no warming fires have been lit in the fire pit as yet...
Pelagon
GRP
is within the Great Hall of the North and says to ALL: I walk over to where the central fire hearth has been built...it rises from the floor built with large stones that have been fire hardened and I check to make sure that the mortor holding had been well placed and didnt need repairs as some time it cracks as it hardens but all seems well, it is a deep fire pit which is good it means that some rocks can be placed in the bottom of it which will help keep in the heat if the fire burns low...

GRP
is within the Great Hall of the North and says to ALL: I smile towards Clarissa then walks to where I have piled some fire rocks and picking up a few at a time, my arm and back muscles are straining as I carry them inside the hall, I walk over to the central fire pit and places them at the bottom then after a couple of more loads the inside base of the fire pit is ready...I layer twigs, leaves and small pieces of kindling upon the rocks then pours a little tharlarian lamp oil over the twigs etc...I pick up a couple of lamps before walking over to Joe's home, I knock on the back door and pia opens it, after explaining to her that I need them lit she smiles and within a few ehns both are lit and I return to the fire pit in the main hall....
Pelagon
GRP
is within the Great Hall of the North and says to ALL: I take one of the oil coated twigs and holds it over the flame of the lamp and within a few ihns the twig catches fire, I lean over the wall of the fire pit and holds the twi against others and within a few ehns the flames start licking across the kindling and a few ehns more the fire is well lit...I places some light wood over the flames then a few dense pieces are lined around the edge of the fire then I place some normal sized logs across the top of the now well lit fire resting them across the logs surrounding the fire but not upon the kindling, I know that the heat of the fire and the way the flames are licking around the top logs that it wont be long before the fire is raging...
Pelagon
GRP
is within the Great Hall of the North and says to ALL: I light the giant hearth at one end of the main room of the hall then after adding fire rocks to the kitchen fire pit I light that fire, so that the kitchen starts to warm and the fire pit will soon be ready for cooking...I walk to the verandah and calls out to a few of the bond maids I notice are sitting on a log giggling, they all look towards me then come running to me, "I want you to start bringing the food and the things for cooking as well as the dishes etc from the main store cabin and start packing it all into the kitchen."...they listen to my orders then all run off together to start moving what is needed from the stores cabin into the main hall kitchen..

GRP
is within the Great Hall of the North and says to ALL: while I was lighting the fires some thralls were bringing the long tables and bench seats into the main room and setting them in place while two bonds were bringing in some furs as well and placing them closer to the hearth fires, I watch all that is happening and smiles knowing that the hall is starting to look good...I walk over to where I have some wall hangings rolled up and picking up the first one I carry it over to one of the long tables I also pick up one of the metal rods that will be used to suport it and carefully threads the rod thru the top hem of the wall hanging...I pull one of the bench seats over to the wall...I pick up the wall hanging and carrys it over to the seat and climbs onto the seat, I have to stand on the balls of my feet and stretch as high as I can to reach the ends of the rod over the massive hooks then drops the rod in place, I then release the hanging and let it unfurl from the weight of it, I step off the bench and move back a little and look at the sceene upon the hanging, this one is a hunting scene, a group of hunters some with arrows loaded into bows are pointed towards a flock of tabuk while others of the hunters are moving closer to the herd....I hang the other 9 hangings and look upon the sceene of each one, admiring the quality of the tapestries and I hope that Joe likes them as they were gifted to the Island from a past guest of the Island...

GRP
is within the Great Hall of the North and says to ALL: I order one of the bonds to light all the lamps so that the room has a soft ambience about it then I walk through the kitchen to the room that is going to be holding all the barrels of paga, mead, ale and wine racks and notice that it has been fully stacked...I return to the kitchen and finds most has been done there, I alocate two bonds to dust and sweep and look around to see what else needs to be done...

GRP
is within the Great Hall of the North and says to ALL: I walk out onto the Veranda and sees Sedim talking to Clarissa, Tal Sedim is good to sees you again. Perhaps you and Clarissa would like to enter the hall now and tell me if there is any thing else that needs to be done?

GRP
is within the Great Hall of the North and says to ALL: I call out to one of the thralls and tell him to start filling up the massive lidded wood boxes, and also tells him to tend to the three fires to make sure they are well burning so that the hall will soon loose its chill and feel more welcoming..

is within the Great Hall of the North and says to Pelagon GRP: **My tiny body is nearly lost as I step into the Hall. Already warmth is beginning to fill the place, and the fires give off their cheerful light and crackle. Jade eyes sweep around as I take it all in, impressed....then realize that something is missing** Ummm....are furs still being fetched?
