The Khan's Stallion was not the best tavern in Rassilon  nor was it the loudest however, both those titles belonged to Marco's but what the Khan's Stallion was, was close it was very near to the bandstand where Satoshi, Ragnar and Calder had listened to the Weelond Players.

26722501617_a0a48b58d5_t.jpg"Well how does one find Labourers to hire?, ."

26722499947_509fd16633_t.jpg"Rassilon is a place full of opportunities, we just have to hope we find one" 

 26722501617_a0a48b58d5_t.jpg"Well I doubt people will just show up out of nowhere and ask for a job."

Two rough looking blokes came together in front of them, one of the had come from the concert, whereas the other had just exited the Khan's Stallion, yet the men stood together and clearly had ties.

Ragnar headed closer to the men and they neared him, surprisingly eager to strike up a consersation with strangers on the street.

39846588780_9cbfb93f21_t.jpg"I saw you fellows down by the bandstand, did I not overhear you looking for workers?"

26722501617_a0a48b58d5_t.jpg"You did."

39846588780_9cbfb93f21_t.jpg"Me and my friend here would be willing to volunteer for such a position and for a very reasonable fee too"

26722501617_a0a48b58d5_t.jpg"Deal!"

41614681112_4883ef1ff0_z.jpg

26722500727_2cd59c58ff_t.jpg"What, are you just going the hire the first people, you see! No background checks or anything!"

26722501617_a0a48b58d5_t.jpg"You said We should get this over with quickly."

26722500727_2cd59c58ff_t.jpg"This was not quite what I had in mind."

39846588470_cd39c405b5_t.jpg"Trust me chaps, you won't regret it."

26786737327_e4f5f07843_z.jpg

The other ASTG marines returned bringing with them a cannon from the local factory.

26722499947_509fd16633_t.jpg"Lovely craftsmanship, that will do nicely."

The marine turned to face Ragnar

26722500287_1e89b36601_t.jpg"Yiroe said we were to assist you with your studies whilst we waited for him and the doctor to finish their duties."

26722501617_a0a48b58d5_t.jpg"Splendid, why don't we start here, find out how a tree can grow simply from sand with little proper soil, exciting no?!"

26722499947_509fd16633_t.jpg"It sounds great in theory but I think that the fine people of Rassilon probably don't want you laying your, uh whats it called...?"

26722500727_2cd59c58ff_t.jpg"Quadrat"

26722499947_509fd16633_t.jpg"That's it, thank you laddie, yes , they probably don't want you laying your quadrat across the street."

26722500727_2cd59c58ff_t.jpg"Not the mention the city environment will probably have an affect on your results."

26722501617_a0a48b58d5_t.jpg"Ah yes, a fair argument, I suppose, We'll head away from civilisation to carry out our field work."

26722500287_1e89b36601_t.jpg"Good call"

Out of earshot of the Laborers Calder again addressed his grievances to Ragnar, something Ragnar and now Satoshi were becoming used to.

26722500727_2cd59c58ff_t.jpg"Do those men not look like brigands to you?"

26722501617_a0a48b58d5_t.jpg"Calder, they are just men out for an honest living, no more dangerous than a simple insect like an ant."

26722499947_509fd16633_t.jpgCalm down Laddie, you seem to think everyone in this town is some sort of pirate, which is quite plainly, absurd"

26722500727_2cd59c58ff_t.jpg"They did have a skull and crossbones as the flag on their fort!"

26722499947_509fd16633_t.jpg"Fair point" Satoshi replied chuckling.

Little did Ragnar know that the ants you find in Rassilon are the size of a man's head with venom that will paralyse you with one bite.

40943197044_6a0470d241_t.jpg"Argh Aiie, Ahh!!!!"

OOC: Out of the Mocs I've built for BotBS so far (including some I haven't yet published") this one has to be my favourite. I think I'll start a list of the chapters in my signature, anyway thanks for looking I hope you had fun, and as always C and C are most welcome. Bonus pictures on Flickr and in the spoiler tag below.

Nice facade, I like the stud technique you used here, it's quite original to build an arch with hinges, the cannon looks good too.

Indeed the facade is a nice build, but the base really caught my eye - very well built! You also got a lot of great storytelling out of this one small build.

An overall great MOC, you can be proud. Well done! :thumbup:

*and suddenly the world turned studs up*

"ehh why is that palmtree growing sideways?"

very nifty technique indeed..I also like the pattern you used for the blue tiles

not too sure about the "branched palm tree" though...although I like your trunk and branches the palm foliage just seems off on top of it
