Repairs [Action]
Gil was interested as anyone else in exploring the depths to see if anything interesting was down there, but he bowed to necessity. His skills were of infinitely greater use back up in the city. He was leading a repair crew about Union, dealing with damage dealt by the Earthquake. His crew was glad to have his technical expertise and organizational skills, but...something about him made them nervous.
"The elevator shaft for tower 97 is warping from stress, but it's towards the top so we won't have to worry TOO much about the whole thing come down on our heads. This shouldn't take long at all. Hmm, and if we replace these cables with a ferrous alloy we should be able to make mag-lev elevators that move at five times the speed of the old ones AND can be converted into an impromptu rail gun should we ever fall under attack! We can make a ballistic infantry cannon to quickly deploy troops and supplies anywhere within fifty miles of the city walls! QUICK SOMEONE PASS ME A WELDING TORCH!"
That. That was what was making them nervous.
