Kapitel 214: Spine

Soon enough, the people from the Church all gathered in front of Eisen, who was already preparing the wood to be carved. Luckily, the whole log was delivered unstripped, so the bark was still on it. With a large knife, Eisen then cut into the bark of the Ironbark tree, which was quite hard, just as the name suggested, to show the workers how the bark should be separated and stored, in large rectangular sheets. The bark itself seemed to be incredibly hard, so it surely had a few uses here and there, so Eisen didn't just want to throw it away. And lucky for Eisen, since the warehouse was explicitly used to work with Ironbark trees, there were tools specifically for that purpose already stored there.

Of course, he could have made the tools himself, but that would have cost quite a bit of time, and Eisen wanted to finish this as quickly as possible.
