[Transferring Sabre Tooth Tiger pups to the Beast Hall]

[Sabre Tooth Tiger Beast Hall of Riverside

Beast Hall Grade - S

Spawn Rate - 2 Animals Per Day (Can be upgraded with Village Growth)

Spawn Type - Sabre Tooth Tiger

Beast Hall Level - 1

The Beast Hall is for none standard creatures that can be tamed and trained, domesticating something that wouldn’t normally be domesticated. This is a rare building type and the necessary creature must be tamed and placed within the Beast Hall by the Town itself. Creatures within the Stables can spawn their own kind through natural means.

Beast Hall can be upgraded with the appointment of a skilled Beast Tamer]

There was a loud roar from within the Beast Hall, as some slight changes took place. In the centre area there was now some large thick logs with string balls dangling from them, some large piles of straw and large metal plates of meat. At the far end some saddles had now appeared on the racks as well. On the entrance gate an image of a Sabre Tooth Tiger appeared and Dom could see that the first 3 doors within had numbers above them, signifying that they were occupied. Dom assumed this would be the three pups in one of them and two adults in the others.

"Who is going in to investigate?" Dom asked, suddenly realising he had just unleashed an expert predator on the Town.

"I’ll go." Chen Lu said, he headed inside side confidently, wearing his thick armour and his halberd in hand.

Dom decided he should probably follow him in, from a safe distance, as they approached the first gate. Dom was flanked by an armed Subutai and Homer as Chen Lu pushed the gate open, revealing a fully grown Sabre Tooth Tiger that towered over Chen Lu, who stood bravely in front of it.

Dom wasn’t sure what was going to happen, and held his own sword in his hand as he suspected the Sabre Tooth Tiger may pounce on Chen Lu. However the opposite happened, the Sabre Tooth Tiger approached Chen Lu, and pushed it’s head against him and started to purr.

"Good Girl." Chen Lu said, stroking the Tiger with his free hand, causing the Tiger to purr even more. "Whose a good Girl, yes you are a good Girl!"

"I think we are safe." Homer whispered to Dom, who nodded his head in surprise at the situation.

The Tiger suddenly collapsed on the floor and rolled on to it’s back, lifting it’s paws in the air. Chen Lu headed inside the pen and began to stroke the Tiger’s belly, playing with it as it rolled around.

"Well, at least they are tamed." Subutai said with a smile, putting his sword back in it’s scabbard and heading to the second pen, which he pushed open and was greeted with a similar scene himself.

After a few minutes, both Tigers had been put away and the third pen had also been opened, revealing the pups who were all cuddled up and asleep in a corner. The group discussed what they would do, and Chen Lu explained that he would take over the management of the Beast Hall with his Forbidden Guards, making sure to feed and train the Tigers. Dom was excited for the next few days as more arrived and they would begin to have patrols of heavily armoured Warriors riding on Tiger back.

Dom and Subutai left the Beast Hall and headed back towards the Town Centre, Dom had four things left to do. Firstly he needed to spawn the Mausoleum after choosing the correct area for it. Secondly he needed to use the Random Green Cube, before finally using his upgrade tokens. With the increase of one hundred warriors, he was now only short of less than one hundred more people before he should be able to upgrade the Town Centre, as he now had eight level 2 buildings.

"Where are you planning to place the Mausoleum?" Subutai asked.

"I’m not sure, because I don’t know what it does." Dom replied.

"Well, the one at the Ancient Underground City held the bodies of some of their warriors." Subutai replied, "I would recommend we place it near the graves of our dead that we have been starting to to put together."

"That would make the most sense." Dom agreed, heading towards the west of the city where they had started to bury any of their dead. There wasn’t much here currently as their losses had been minimum, but there was a plot of land that had been dedicated to them on the way up to the mountains.

"System, please use the Mausoleum Green Cube." Dom requested.

[Spawning Mausoleum]

There was a slight shake as a stone building appeared in front of them, similar to that they had seen in by the Lake in the Red Woods. It had several engraved pillars that surrounded the outside and a stone entrance way that would allow you to head inside. The building looked majestic and gave the burial ground a central point.

Dom hoped that this would be a part of Riverside that was rarely used, but felt it was an important part to any Town, where the characters within could mourn their friends and family who would eventually be placed here.

"System, show stats." Dom asked as Subutai walked around the Mausoleum.

[Mausoleum of Riverside

Building Grade - S

Building Level - 1

Building Perks - (Eternal Rest - A Place to store the bodies of the lost Heroes from your Civilisation)(Key to the Heart - A Place to respect those who have contributed to your Civilisation, giving them a place in your Civilisations Heart, to be remembered throughout the ages)(Unknown Perk - Upgrade needed)

The Mausoleum is a stately building that houses tombs of the most influential people. The Mausoleum is currently one story tall, but can be upgraded to have multiple underground tombs if needed. Both Heroes, Commanders and Elite Villagers can use the Mausoleum as their final resting place.

Upgrade opportunities can be found]

As Dom read the notes, he realised that this really was just a cemetery building, but for key people. He hoped he would never need to use it as all of the Heroes and Elite Villagers he had within Riverside he liked. Some of them were getting older, but Dom doubted that the game would still be relevant by the time those characters reached that particular age.

Dom wondered what the Unknown Perk was, but he didn’t want to use one of his Wooden Tokens on this building, as it had no initial impact on Riverside’s growth or defences. He waited for a few minutes at the graves of those that had recently passed away fighting against the Type 3 Humans at the Cave, before calling Subutai over.

They headed back towards the Town Centre, accompanied Homer and Hector who had returned to their side, soon reaching it. Dom held the Green Cube in his hand and decided to head towards the Merchant District, this and the Manufacturing districts where the least populated, but he felt it would be ideal if he could place another building in one of those. He decided he would place this building between the Docks and the Market and see what he received.

"System, please use the Random Green Cube." Dom asked.

[Rolling for Random Building....Building Selected....Tavern]

As usual, the ground shook, before a small two story building appeared in front of them. It was made from the same silver wood as the Silver Forest and looked very homely, with glass windows on the outside and an wooden archway at the entrance. Outside the Tavern were a couple of wooden benches.

"Show Stats." Dom asked, impressed that they finally had a building with some entertainment.

[Tavern of Riverside - Please Name

Building Grade - S

Building Level - 1

The Tavern has been around since the founding of Human Civilisation in some form or another, a home for people to share a drink and food with friends and family. Taverns have been known throughout history to be the centre of the Town, with people flocking to it throughout the week for a relaxation and an escape from day to day life.

The Tavern can be upgraded in multiple directions, depending on the wants for it’s location.]

"A Tavern!" Homer exclaimed from behind Dom excitedly. "Hey Hector, we can have a drink later!"

"I don’t think now is the time." Hector commented, nudging Homer and pointing his head towards their Lord who watched them both with a grin.

"I think you need some professional guards." Subutai commented, shaking his head at the two.

"It’s fine, I enjoy the fun." Dom replied, thinking of Gregorios and Trojan who were his favourites. They had been busy with him the previous day and were currently having some time off. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

"We’ll need to find a good landlady for this Tavern who can look after it." Subutai said as he looked at the Tavern in the distance, "It’s in a great location as we can use it to gather data from any travellers that pass through."

"I will have a think about it." Dom agreed, realising the maybe he needed a spy master who could look after a building like this. He also wondered what upgrade options there would be to the Tavern, and decided he would ask Sostratus to look at some possible options when he had chance. "We also need to name the tavern."

"I do worry about naming things." Subutai said, "We need something imaginative and welcoming to our own people, as well as travellers."

"How about Medusa’s Wrath." Homer said, thinking about the face on Hectors old shield.

"That’s not very welcoming." Subutai replied with a raised eyebrow.

"What about Tigers Grotto." Dom said.

"I know you are the Lord, but I need to disagree on that one." Subutai replied with a laugh.

"Well do you have any ideas?" Dom asked.

"What about the Rivers Edge?" Subutai said after thinking for a few seconds.

"Not sure about that one either." Dom replied, "This isn’t going great is it."

"Let’s come back to it later!" Subutai stated, "So that is all of the buildings, which should we upgrade?"

"We have two Wooden Tokens." Dom relied, still trying to think up a name for the Tavern. "We have currently upgraded the Forbidden Guards Warriors Hall, as well as having the auto upgrade of the Coinsmith from the second Blacksmith. I am thinking that we should upgrade the Mine to increase our flow of materials, and then something none military."

"Why not do the Tavern?" Homer said from behind.

"He’s full of ideas today isn’t he." Subutai said sharply, turning to the guard again who kept getting involved.

"I’m used to it." Dom shrugged, "But that may not be a bad idea, the population is growing and one Tavern for nearly two thousand people is not enough."

Subutai shrugged his shoulders, disappointed he couldn’t persuade Dom to upgrade anything Military related, but also agreeing that his two choices were both ideal for the current situation.

"System, please use the remaining Wooden Tokens on the Mine and the Tavern." Dom ordered.

Suddenly the Tavern in front almost doubled in length, with more benches appearing outside. Dom was interested about what would be inside, and headed in that direction as he checked the stats. Grateful that he was close to another Town Centre upgrade in such a short period of time.
