This is so cool.

I forgot one thing too. In the northern part of Eladormere there is a
mead hall being built using (I beleive) structural likenesses to a saxon
building. We have the frame up but thats it. It is taking a while as
this is a hobby for the builders and there are generally only 3-4
"regulars" toiling away. Me, I just feed them.
