Master Blueprint

Expanding Sector Alpha into a massive fortress for the ant squad requires an overarching architectural schematic before excavation begins. Kneeling beside the walnut-shell depot, I salvaged a flat scrap of smooth cardboard torn from a product tag. Using a sharp quartz flake clasped between my gauntlets, I began scoring layout gridlines into the fiber surface. I mapped outer boundary walls, reinforcement bulkheads, and dedicated cargo transit ramps to guide the ants' heavy hauling. A wandering scout paused, tapping its antennae against my freshly etched trench lines as if reading structural contours. It is an ambitious, long-term civil engineering project, but phase one is officially drafted.
