City Dwarves: Episode 13

__NOTOC__
==Synopsis==
The sisters, their friends and family arrive at the empty spot where the dwarven city of Cobbleton is founded. Construction work begins on the new society. The discovery of geodes leads to new ideas and traditions.
==Recap==
===Founding of Cobbleton===
The sisters are being flown from The First City to their new home, in a container, by a Roc. With them are Proton, their pet cats, Royboy, Giovani, and Einhard.
The plan is in the future for the future city to be build under the mountain. But for now the "starter town" will be built at the edge of the lake to the west of the mountain.
When the Roc lands there is nothing built. Einhard, the demigod son of Lazuli and Nadinis, breaks the first ground with a pickaxe, and proclaims that this is the start of Cobbleton.
The many dwarves that Einhard recruited are traveling overland and will be here in a few weeks, so the people here will have to get to work to build accommodations and amenities. The first project is a great hall. The 3 sisters decide the great hall will be in the shape of a boot; multiple stories in the back and flat a the front. Amoung the dwarves traveling overland will be the relatives of the sisters in the mountains near the First City.
Giovani, as a trained carpenter, is the most useful dwarf during the construction efforts.
During the first night, after the tents have been set up, Einhard notices the 3 egg-shaped red stones that the sisters found in Episode 8. Einhard suggests splitting them open to see what is inside, and Bouldara shuts down that idea right away. Einhard asks to be given one of the 3 stones, but Bouldara also shuts suggestion down as well. Einhard suggests warming the stones with fire, and the sisters agree to this idea. Pebble and Bouldara stay up all night to keep the one of the stones warm by the fire overnight but nothing appears to change.
The next day Pebble and Bouldara are tired and don't work as hard as the others on the construction. Lazuli tries to come up with ideas to separate the sisters from the red rocks, and decides on placing a red rock in a place of honor in the new great hall design.
===Geode Discovery===
Bouldara finds a geode while excavating. Days get wasted as everyone looks for geodes instead of construction. In the end 10 geodes are discovered. The geodes are split between the 7 people and the 2 cats who are there. The population object to the 2 cats getting their own geodes, but accept it in the end.
A ritual is invented for the founding famlies to displace half the geodes in the great hall, and keep their half in their homes, but when they are away the geodes are put together to show that they will return.
Another ritual is an coming-of-age ritual, where a noble dwarf will have to go find a geode in order to be considered an member of noble society.
===Arrival of more Dwarves===
The 150-ish dwarves arrive from their overland travel and are dismayed by the lack of process on the great hall. Lazuli reveals the riches they found, thanking Nadinis for the bounty. The dwarves are happy to find out this area has riches and also get to work.
Progress on construction continues, but is slowed by people still looking for geodes of their own. 26 more geodes are found in the next few weeks. Pebble sees the pattern of discovery seems to go along the creek bed that leads to future Battle Mountain. Pebble thanks Astair for her ability to see the pattern and order. 
There is a fear that Battle Mountain is a Volcano because of how Geodes are formed.
===Timeskip===
Over the next year the city grows outwards from the great hall.
There are 5 major temples made to Nadinis, Astair, Sayor, Martha, and Nerual.
There is an amphitheatre made, as well as a marina on the lake-edge. Bouldara had a tavern built "The Cat's Gift". 
The sisters decide to come up with virtue quests for Einhard to prove himself Wise, Kind, and Just. Each sister is in charge of a different virtue to test.
