Humans have began to put their silly wants in front of the Earth's needs. Verily foolish, as now, the harvest goddess had concealed herself under a pond, upset with what we have done to the planet, only to appear to those who emit a kindly aura, those who help the Earth in its state. A group of nomads, of all different ages, professions, and with varying personalities pass through the valley where the pond is said to be. The harvest goddess sees that they are worthy, and emerges, to be seen by the travelers. It is decided that a town will be built around the pond. Also in the area is a vast, blue, unamed lake. It is perfect for fishing. There are also forests, and wild animals running around. The land is great for farming and growing crops. Everyone will need to contribute theri skills if the harvest goddess in the be revived, and the town is to thrive, surely not a simple task.

It is the first of Spring, and so the weather is still a little chilly as the first settlers begin to arrive. The land was set out by the Founders, having saw the Harvest Goddess in residence there.
One of the new settlers walks off the trail, entering the basic town. There are some log cabins, and some people have set out fields. Some birds are flying through the trees dotted around the new townsite. Jakku Ebansu takes a deep breath, and walks towards the general store. Having been told of where his plot of land is, he wanders over, tiredly. He takes out the basic two-man tent he has been sleeping in on the walk from the City, and sets it up, marking his land. He notices woodland, not too far away. He heads off to search for good building wood.
 
Ruby and Ryou walked into the place. Ryou held a shovel and had an axe strapped to his back, while Ruby carried two buckets full of water. "It sure is warm today!" Ruby sighed, "I'm so glad winter's over!"
Ryou nodded in agreement and added, "The perfect weather for building: warm but with a cool breeze, just like how Spring should be!"
Ruby smiled, "Ryou why don't you go get some wod from the forest?"
Ryou grinned, "Okay, take the shovel and start digging in our plot."
Ruby took the shovel from Ryou and dropped the bucket for begining to dig up the ground to make the bar as Ryou walked off into the forest.
 
From the woodland path to the City, a man emerged. He stopped at the end of the path and took off his hat, dusted it down and mopped his brow, tiredly. He'd been on a long journey. But it was over now. Gary carefully placed the hat back on his head and looked over the land. A few cabins stood some hundred yards away. A beautiful valley with a stream running through it... Gary slowly began walking down the dirt road, humming under his breath as he approached the small village.
 
Patrice lugged her large suitcase through the fields.

"Ok, lets find a place to start..." she said.

She started going through her stuff to find wood for a dock. That was essential.
 
Chris walked into the town carrying large amounts of supplies, she blew her blue bangs up off of her sweaty forehead, "Don't worry I'll carry this all the way to my plot of land for the new clinic," she muttered to no one in particular. She set all of her medical supplies on her plot of land, there was an old building sitting there it, "At least it has charecter," the old cabin was falling apart, who ever built it was long gone, "I guess it's time for redecorating." She opened one of her packs and pulled out blue paint, it was one of those things given to her by the workers of the old clinic, as a joke saying that if she was making a new clinic it had to be blue like her hair, "I'll show them," and she set to work.
 
Xavier quickly walked, guitar strapped on his back, to the town where he had spent his childhood summers, happy memories being shadowed by the grief of his father's death. As he entered the town he saw many people building and renovating their new lots. Lucky for him, he already had his. He found the house and put his key in the hole, turning it before opening the door. He calmly walked in his room and set down his small bag of belognings, mostly just keepsakes his father left him. He sat down on the couch and started to sturm on his guitar, though it was primarily electric it also worked as an acoustic. To his dismay, he would have to deal with introductions due to all the new villagers.

Gary eyed the other arrivals as he entered the small village. They were a shambled bunch if anything, but everyone was worth something in a place like this. Everyone contributed. He went inside the general store and found a kindly gentlemen who directed him to a nicely plowed plot of land at the end of the road.
"Nice." He muttered, before exiting the shop and started once more to walk down to the plot of land. He saw that it was surrounded by a small stone wall and a pond lay outside its hastily built gate. He grinned. Excellent.
 
"Perfect," the whole house was painted a rich blue, it had taken her semingly forever, "That'll show them," she started to work on the inside the shelves were sloopy at best and each shelf had a layer of dust so thick she couldn't see what color they were painted, she took an old rag and dusted them and scowled, "They're purple," she hated that color, "Time to start painting, again." She took the remainder of the paint and started, no way she was having purple shelves in HER clinic, only blue would please her.
 
"Yaaaaawn. Well, that was some real hard work, but the dock, and the shop is done."

Patrice looked up at the long dock she had built, stretching out over the beautiful lake. Her house looked great too. It was a cute blue, it seemed to fit the whole "fishing thing."

"Hmmm... better walk to town to see the other villagers." she said.
 
Artie walked to the village from the woods. His body is full of sweats.
"Sweet." He slung his bag to his shoulder then started walking.
He reached the village. Lot of people is doing their own work.

Artie saw a girl digging for a plot. "Jesus, this village is filled with hotties!" He muttered.
He walked to the girl and greeted her. "Hello."
 
Xavier soon finished his song and cot up from the couch. He walked out the door and headed towards the town hall. On his way, he saw many of the new villagers, but didn't bother himself to talk to them. He wanted to delay that as long as possible. He walked into the town hall and posted something on the bulletin board, advertising himself and trying to find some places to play at. He sat in the corner of the town hall and began to strum on his guitar.

Chris had just about finished the shelves only getting some of the paint on the floor, "There, all done!" she breathed a sigh of relief, she then opened up her bags and started to put her suplies on the shelves, this was going to be the best clinic ever. After everything was organized, she looked in the back room, there were several beds, she would have to get sheets for them, she ran out the door and to the store picking out blue sheets and materials for a sign, as well as more blue paint, she had just enough money for it all. Once she got back she set the shets out on the bed and began working on her sign. As she made it she wondered if any more healers were comming to the town, she surly would need help.
 
Jakku sat on a fence.
He mentally corrected himself.
He was sitting on his fence, the one he'd spent all morning building.

There'd been some wood in the forest, so Jakku had been happy to use it.
He was pleased he had a house, rather than a tent, but no windows yet. He'd need to buy some glass...
He'd also ordered for a cow, before he left the city. That'd be arriving soon, so he resolved to build a paddock tomorrow.
His stomach growled.
Jakku headed back to the general store, whistling. He needed some supplies, it seemed.

Ryou came back to see a nice plot that Ruby had created. She had already put some wood down that she had been offered by the nice guy at the general store who apparently had 'just too much of this wood stuff'. So Ruby had taken it from him happily.
"Good job" Ryou nodded and he grabbed his saw, he began to cut up some wood for floorboards. "Go fetch some bricks from the general store so we can build us a nice strong wall."
"Ok," Ruby rushed off to the stpre where she bought herself some bricks and came running back to Ryou. She and also bought some cement and was mixing it. They soon had a good solid base and a short wall around the building. The downstairs would be the bar nd the upstairs would be thir own personal living space.
"This is looking good," Ryou chuckled as he handed Ruby a sandwhich. All morning they had been working on this, "Tonight we'll have to stay in our tent though, but we could camp on the base of the house.
 
Patrice went too the store to by more supplies. She decided she needed a big sign that said "FISH MARKET: BUY FISH HERE!"
No.... she needed something more catchy...

"FISH MARKET: BUY FRESH FISH HERE!"

Ahh much better. Now she needed to combine her fishing skills with her art skills to make the best fish sign ever.
 
Artie walked to the forest. There, he had found a small river.
He took out his whip, ready to lash it if he spotted something that moves.
"Bingo!" He spotted a fish. He lashed his whip through the water, making the fish jumped and then he caught it with bare hand. "Yep, I'm goin to make a lot of cash."
 
Ruby an Ryou were building theh second floor now, although the bottom floor was missing a wall, but the main reason for that was that they had no door yet, and Ryou owuld just go find an old one in a skip somewhere. So they were ow fixing in a window or two on the top floor and had already sperated the three rooms. They ere looking forward o haing a nic ehouse to live in.
 
Artie just caught a dozen fish, a dozen fresh fish.
There were 6 char fish, 2 catfish, and 4 weird fish that he don't know the name.
Artie went back to the village, looking for a place he could sell his fish.

"Now where can I find fish market?" He muttered. And once he got his cash from selling fish, he gonna walk around the village, selling his goods and he's gonna look for an inn, if he can't found one, he'll build a tent near the river on the woods
