Dragon Cypress, accompanied by Molan, Round Cypress, and Spiked Cypress, rode the Dominating Throne to survey the North Mountain terrain.

"We can use stones and clay to build a dam about fifty meters long and block the valley entrance over there."
"There's a gap there; we'll need to dig some earth and fill it in."
"If we're going to build this reservoir, let's make it large. In the future, this reservoir can also handle irrigation for the North Mountain Orchard during drought seasons. So, we'll need to dig a water channel westward for irrigation, too. The clay we dig from the channel can also be used to construct the dam."
