    Summary

    For experienced builder Lucy, Sandrock seemed like the ideal place to start again. A nice quiet town to lie low in for a few years before she inevitably has to move on again.

    You see, Lucy has a problem: she is one of the people of the Old World and no longer ages following a long spell in a hypersleep.

    Unfortunately for Lucy, Sandrock is anything but the holiday she was hoping for. For a start, she is not the only one of her kind who has chosen to make Sandrock their home.

    Summary

    "Less than ten percent of domesticated species go into heats," accord to Tech and his research, and (un)fortunately, you're one of that ten percent.

    What else are you meant to do? Trapped during a heat cycle with five men - five willing men who are happy to help relieve you, but not all have the confidence to say so.

    Summary

    Lucy left her troubled past in Highwind and impulsively went to the dwindling city of Sandrock. She didn’t expect to be pulled into conspiracies, a potential war, and definitely didn’t expect getting closer to the townsfolk. She just wanted to build things and help people.

    An alternative take on a Builder who has a sad backstory, problems showing emotion and how she deals with the kindness from the people of Sandrock.

    Summary

    Lucy moved to Sandrock for all the wrong reasons, far too out-of-touch and ill prepared for everything that was about to come. Little did she know she was exactly the kind stubborn firebrand the town needed.

    Following the plot of Sandrock told mostly from the point of view of the Default Female Builder. Everyone's involved, there's shenanigans, a slow-burn romance and maybe some drama on the side. Lots of spoilers for late game, all the good ones.

    Summary

    Lucy enjoyed books— any she could get her hands on. She appreciated hard work, took pleasure in creating and her parents told her to build a career off something that lasts… Well bridges and water towers mostly did, right?
    So, that’s exactly what she did. She helped build back Sandrock. Hero? Maybe. Courageous? Sure. Fulfilled? Possibly… but that’s what she should feel, right?

    That comes into question after something simple. Andy mentioned something offhanded one day that led down a road of inconceivably dumb luck and perhaps building something more. Life isn’t just about building up a town; sometimes, in a rare few, the town builds up something more in a person. Lucy experienced such growing pains after the routine returned to Sandrock.

    This takes place in contrast to Cornered Beasts. It is another take on how a rough-and-tumble yakboy finds himself running into a thick-as-magnesium steelhead.
