Dust motes dance in the cold air as Commander Korth steps through the mist, his cream fur matted with gray rubble. He surveys the tunnel entrance with eyes wide and wary.
Commander Korth
The ground is still screaming, Kalazan. My guards at the surface are readying spears, convinced the very mountain is coming down. We must return to the light.
Kalazan
The sigils are still pulsing with a rhythm that matches my own heartbeat.
A Field Healer
Commander, the tremors have opened deep fractures in the nursery foundations. If you do not stabilize the ley lines above, the pressure will burst the entire western wing.
A Field Healer clutches a satchel of glowing herbs, her knuckles white as she nods toward the darkening tunnel behind the pedestal.
A Field Healer
I have the poultices to soothe the dire beasts, but only your magic can mend the stone. Please, lead the way.

“I proceed there and use my power of the mountain to heal, expand and upgrade the structrual design and strength of the nursery”
SUCCESS (Great Construction, rolled +1)
Kalazan plants his feet firmly upon the uneven stone, his staff humming as he channel his connection to the mountain core.
Kalazan
The ley lines are raw and exposed, begging for a master to command their flow.
He releases a pulse of raw arcane force, knitting the hairline fractures back together with reinforced obsidian webbing.
A Field Healer
By the gods, the vibrations have stopped. You have not just sealed the cracks, you have hardened the very marrow of the nursery foundations.
Commander Korth
Look there, the stone is humming with a new resilience. The beasts in the lower levels have finally gone silent.
Deep beneath their feet, a resonant, metallic chime echoes upward, signifying the structural integrity is now superior to its original state.
