The sun rose over Lornwood, casting a warm glow across the newly cleared plots of land. Emily awoke early, feeling the pulse of a new day. Today was pivotal—more than just a continuation of their work, it marked the arrival of support from neighboring towns. The anticipation electrified the air, and she could sense the excitement bubbling among her companions.
After a quick breakfast, Emily gathered her team for a morning briefing. "Today, we'll prepare for our guests. Let's make sure we have enough food, shelter, and a plan to show them what we've accomplished so far. This is our chance to inspire them."
Rafael nodded, his enthusiasm evident. "I'll handle the cooking. We need a warm meal ready to welcome them properly."
"I can set up some tents and organize sleeping arrangements," Thalia offered, already looking over the available supplies. "We want them to feel comfortable and valued."
