Demesne ch 1-15

Out on the frontier of a new continent, the wizard Lori and her group of settlers try to build a community for themselves in a land actively hostile to intelligent life. With their wits, their will, and their newly built Dungeon to protect them against the Iridescence, the deadly growth that makes life inhospitable beyond the borders of their demesne, they should be fine. If they can survive the lack of infrastructure. And the deadly beasts they need to hunt for food. And idiots who don't get exactly what having to settle somewhere entails. And dragons...

Using structural engineering, the scientific method, the comparative advantages of stone and ice as building materials, logistics, the dark and terrible art of personnel management (outsourced to more experienced individuals), and her own magic and experience, Lori and her newly dubbed lord Rian must face the persistent problems of shelter, sanitation, drinking water, morale, transport, food storage, material collection and refinement, and keeping horny idiots from fucking everywhere they shouldn't.

Hopefully, she can solve these problems before winter arrives so she can get to work on taxation.

Even that last one. Though if they try to do it in her room again, she will not be responsible for her actions...
