Devlopment's and Finding Valuables

Nathan POV

As I lean over the balcony of my bedroom, which could hold two regular-sized rooms. I begin to consider my future step; it has been around 6 months since my arrival, and I have made improvements and discoveries.

First, I developed ports large enough to hold commerce ships while still leaving plenty of area for warships. In addition, I built a bridge from the castle grounds to the docks for easier access when I start trading products. In addition, I created a retail center for future merchants and built a wall between it and the housing sections. So far, I've developed two districts: one to house the ordinary population and another to market products and services.

In terms of housing, I built complexes with three bedrooms and the basics. It took me a while, but I finally built many sewage lines to keep my kingdom from stinking like 10 cans of shark shit. Speaking of products, Valyria is a resource paradise; not long after I arrived, my "son" returned from cutting the trees I had told him to do.

(Flashback)

As I wander about the castle grounds, I have several ideas. I would most likely put in a small plaza for the higher-end things I want to sell, as well as a garden someplace on the grounds. Loud footsteps approach me, jolting me out of my reverie. I whip around, ready to use my magic to protect myself, but I come to a halt when I see my "son" I should really give him a name, I can't just keep calling him my son, I reasoned. "Father! I returned and performed the task you assigned to me." He waves his arms like a tiny kid and smiles broadly.

"Thank you for completing this for me...Lyonel." Instead of my "son," I say, and he stops smiling, a puzzled expression on his face. "Who's....Lybolt father?" he attempts to say. I stood there dumbfounded.... he butchered his name, however Lybolt sounds a little cooler screw it. I said to myself, "You are Lybolt now that is your new name, I have given you do you like it?" I inquire, then stillness falls for a few seconds until Lybolt bursts out an enthusiastic shout.

"Thank you very much, Father!" Yes, I will cherish my name that you have given to me forever," he adds, and then he attempts to embrace me, most likely for a hug, but I stop him. "Hugs later, Lybolt, show me how many trees you were able to cut down," I say, and he smiles. "Of course, father, follow me."

We leave the castle grounds and head towards the forest. I think to myself that if I can get my hands on some Valyrian steel, I can replicate as much as I want and then create weapons and find a blacksmith who can rework the steel while teaching my future bots to not only replicate it but also use it in different ways.

But my thoughts are interrupted when we come to a halt. In front of a clearing, my eyes widen in disbelief as I count the amount of trees that have been felled; all I see are hundreds of stumps reaching for over a mile. I turn toi Lybolt. "Did you do all of this, Lybolt?" I ask, dumbfounded. He responds with a wry smile: "Of course I did father although it took me awhile to cut down the first one but before long, I understood how, and I continued until my Axe broke on those Trees over there that are different from all the other ones I cut down."

He says this as he takes me to two enormous heaps on the left where the trees were nearly hazel in color and might form fine trading ships, and as I glance at the pile on the right, I smile with delight. OH MY GOD! I assumed that this kind of wood only grew in the north, yet what I see here are around ten huge trees with black wood. Ironwood is one of the strongest woods known to man, and I have enough of it right here for the taking.

"Are there more of these black-colored trees?" I turn back and ask Lybolt. He shakes his head with delight. "Sure there is plenty of them, but that's not all father while I finished cutting trees down, I saw lights coming from inside one of the dark large holes" I suppose he means a cave, so I say to myself, "Well okay, show me the way so I can see for myself." I tell him, and he nods quickly as we move towards the cave.

We arrive upon the Cave, as Lybolt described it, and Fuck is this thing massive and a bit spooky, but I can't be afraid of what lurks in my lands, and I'm sure there are plenty of other critters and animals I haven't discovered yet.

As we progress deeper into the cave, I think to myself, Lybolt must have incredible strength and endurance to chop down so many trees, not to mention ironwood trees. I should increase my charm magic so I can equip my workers with strength and endurance charms so they don't get tired and can work faster for me.

But the bots I'll make won't be like Lybolt; they'll be more like robots that will perform everything I say with enough experience, to the point where they won't require sleep or food. I'm not sure what role Lybolt will have in my kingdom, but with his strength and the charms I'll bestow on him, he'll be a fucking tank.

But my plotting comes to a halt as we reach a point in the tunnel where light is shining through, and as my eyes follow the lights, I'm stunned. "Is that a Vault?" I exclaim.
