Well, OK that IS a lot of wood. I guess I can understand why it took so long, but you best not get caught napping on the empire's dime. You'll be strung up on a gallows made from the very wood you gathered if you are. Ok kid here's the deal. I think you're alright but we have rules. What we do here for the Emperor is a secret which we don't share with just any old Torch bearer. First, you'll need to prove your loyalty to the Empire. When you reach the rank of Stone Worker I'll be able to put your paperwork through for clearance. Yet I think I can help you out there. I need some metal bits for a metallurgical experiment I'm running. Not just any chunk of tin, I need a rare sample of pristine Kujix soldier armor. Perhaps by ridding an enemy tower of its guardians and claiming it for the Asharr you'd find my metal AND raise your standing in the military community... hmm?
