Dragon Cypress felt that the pond for the Divine-Given Gorgon Fruit Seed had been dug large enough.
However, since Ink Orchid was unsettled, expanding it a bit was fine; they just had to dig it shallower. It wasn't a major project.
Now, a trench 2.5 meters wide and 1 meter deep was being dug on the eastern and southern sides, leaving a half-meter-wide 'ridge' in the middle.
Once the trench was completed, the ridge was removed. The edges were then repaired, and the corners rounded off, shaping the pond into a circle with an approximate diameter of 16 meters.
The expansion of the pond was complete.
The three offshoots of the Divine-Given Gorgon Fruit Seed quickly grew, their leaves emerging from the water.
They still needed to wait for a second offshooting before they could rest assured. Ink Orchid guarded them around the clock.
Dragon Cypress and Round Cypress led the ant swarm to continue digging the foundation for the dam.
