Orchard Clean Up Log
[Yuuko sends out a message letting everyone know that she's checked all the trees and is ready to proceed with taking down the dead ones and growing new ones! She actually has a whole list of things that need to be done:
- Dead trees need to be taken down. The dead wood might be able to be crafted into something.
- All living trees are marked with a ribbon and need to be healed by those that can.
- Still living trees should have their sick branches removed and be pruned properly, to avoid further sickness
- Stone pathing is needed!
- Simple signage directing where certain fruit trees are growing. The orchard isn't big yet but it may be some day!
-Anything else that you'd like to add to the orchard. Small gardens for vegetables/berries and other things would be lovely and it'd be nice to keep everything in one place.
If your character collected seeds from the previous world Yuuko can make them grow instantly. Trees she can't make fully grown just yet, but she can get pretty close. Maybe by the time they've left for the new world/returned there will be fruit on these new trees.]
A - Cutting Down Dead Trees
[The orchard doesn't look super great. Even the still living trees are hard to ascertain from the dead ones. Yuuko has gone ahead and checked them out with some helpful hands and claws so you can figure out which ones to take down because they don't have a ribbon. These trees need to be pulled from the root and completely removed.
All this dead wood must be good for something though. If not fire wood maybe someone can make something out of it!]
B - Healing the Sick Trees
[First things first when it comes to the healthy trees: you make sure those ribbons get back to Yuuko. Otherwise, if you have powers to help them out please try! There are a few on the island that have already said they can save the trees. Hopefully they grow something tasty!]
C - Healing the Earth
[Before growing can commence the dirt leaves little to be desired. The earth isn't in great shape and perhaps it's the reason all the trees started to die? Yuuko's no tree doctor so she couldn't tell you... but before she risks planting any trees in the ground she hopes that someone with some kind of healing magic can revitalize the dirt. Healthy trees need a healthy ground first and foremost.]
D - Planting Delicious Delicious Fruits
[It's time! Yuuko doesn't have a lot of seeds but it's enough to get started. There's apple, oranges, lemons and two pear tree seeds! (Impressive!)
With all the sick trees removed and the dirt revitalized Yuuko has carefully planned where each tree and future tree should go. But maybe her and Waver weren't the only ones to collect seeds. If you also managed to gather something from the previous world hopefully you're inclined to share and pass the seeds over to the rest of the group. Yuuko can make instantly grow any small/medium sized plant. Berries and flora may take a day or two to actually bloom but it won't be a long wait.
As for the trees... well, she now experiences her limits. She can get them pretty grown but not to their full potential or size. Oops. Shoulda maybe been practicing, huh? Oh well. There will probably be plants and apples when they return from their next world.]
E - Pathing/Signage/Build Your Own Thing!
[There is still so much that can be done for the orchard. Pathing will make it easy to get around and not get lost in what will hopefully be a sea of trees. The signage makes things easier to find. But what about making things aesthetically pleasing? Yuuko is all about that. Making a koi pond or a fresh water source will be helpful in keeping things watered.
Smaller gardens to grow different things like vegetables and herbs would be splendid. Are there bumblebees here? Maybe some bee friendly plants that will keep the trees and the rest of the things here growing. There's so much that can be done and while Yuuko has planned out the tree part there's still lots more that can be done and crafted to make life here a little bit better.]
(OOC: Please interact with each other and spam this post all you like to make the orchard super great! And really, do whatever you like and build whatever you please if you're able!)

I hope it doesn't snow. Snow means so much digging.
no subject
[his eyes go huge.]
I want it to snow... as long as we have someplace to go out of it! You can roll around in it, and it crunches!
no subject
I don't know, it might? I don't see any snow-shelter on this island, but there's plenty we haven't explored, and it's strange and in the sky already anyway.
no subject
[Geir's enthusiasm for the idea of snow is growing.]
And we can get a bunch of stuff while we're waiting. Warm clothes and blankets and things to put on the floor. Just in case...!
no subject
[he's wearing a crooked one-sided smile, though. it's sweet to see.]
no subject
[he grins back at Vern, exhilarated. new weather, new sights and smells to share with Vern -- what could be better?]
--let's get a bunch of reeds to make into floor coverings when we're done planting the little trees. That can be our start for today.
no subject
[they've gotten most of the death-smell out of their cave, but not all; reeds or rushes would help absorb what's left.]
It shouldn't take long to plant the trees, anyway. We were only able to pack a couple.
no subject
[they're almost at the lagoon by now; Geir looks around with interest to see where Vern is going to lead them to plant their little filter bark bushes.]
I bet more will grow once they've been here a season or two.
no subject
no subject
We might want to plant them under something, actually. If we could find a little stone ledge or something... Aimintas didn't have a lot of direct sun, either.
[what with the ocean in the way.]
no subject
[up near the outer edges of the beach, furthest away from the actual seawater; there's a likely spot or two with the right shading]
no subject
[now that Geir is invested in the fate of these little shrubs, he really does want them to survive.]
no subject
Here, I think...help me dig?
no subject
[with a huge dragon to help with the digging part, planting isn't a particularly laborious task. Geir's sharp talons can pierce and break up the earth like a child grabbing a handful of sand from their sandbox.]
no subject
a decent bit of teamwork]
no subject
[Geir stares at the shrubs in satisfaction and imagines their thirsty roots stretching down further and further into the ground; perhaps to the center of the world. he knows they won't go down that far and most plants aren't like the Tree, but it's a fanciful thought.]
You want to head back to the place with all the reeds? We can at least get started...
no subject
[vern suggesting food before geir does! progress!]
no subject
[teasing, but gently; they can head that way.]
