	Build site is oddly well guarded, with many seeing yeomanry with Gold stars, and White rams heads on their livery present at the mouth to the well day and night, any who approach asking what is going on is given a sharp tongue and a humble request to go elsewhere.

	The site is heavily guarded though this didn't deter a band of Feni, come across the region of Hay, and for some reason ignore the village only raiding and attacking the build site... they are repelled, somehow, and again some few days later, a pair of Ogre almost from nowhere erupt out of a local wheat field to attack some of the workers on break, were it not for the local garrison of Fidelis being on manoeuvres they surely would have been devoured... even though they were no longer able to work after the assault.

	Many workers fear the project cursed, luckily their Foreman the Landskeeper Gerraint Black, along with his apprentice the Historian Gemma Brightsmith allay their fears, that no curse currently sits on the stones - and were a curse to be laid down, it would certainly be far far away from the dig site by now, perhaps even in the Barrens. This however does not deter many workers leaving, a brief visit from the senator for Mournewold however rally's the few masons still in residence.

	It takes nearly a fully month to complete this one project, with workers tired and frustrated, many claim to feel anger and disdain for the rock the well the whole project but this abates after some time away from the well and a good meal, though when it's completed their stands a large Dolmen with a three linked chain under an oak tree carved into it, along with a alien rune that few recognise, and those that do are wise enough not to reference it. As the dolmen is moved over the hole, the howling and screaming begins again, and some builders claim they see a strange lion carved on the bottom of the dolmen. Some of the more frightened builders flee the scene, seeing this howls as an ill omen - other filled with anger throw boiling water from local fires and chips of rocks and stones into the hole, the Master mason is throwing her tools down the shaft in anger when a rope snaps and brings the Dolmen crashing into its resting place, trapping her arm. Her life is saved due to the actions of the Landskeeper, but the marches loses the right hand of the most skilled mason in the nation.
