Humanity has always been famed to continue pushing the limits of the known. So when a rift in reality appeared in a nearby island, the senate quickly mounted an expedition to investigate it. You took your ships and your men and started to go through the rift. Your mages began to understand its mechanism.

However, during the transfer of a large stockpile of supplies, the rift mysteriously closed! You became stranded in this weird land.

You are Septimus, the General. You have at your disposal about half of a Legion. (some 2,000 men or so).

There are, however, no women.

The exact place were you got stranded was:

> Mana Crystal Wasteland - a vast wasteland full of many crystals, but where no plants grow. Weird monsters that feed on mana or sunlight wander the place.
> Blue Fungus Cave - a vast cave system with walls lined with blue fungus. Some exits to the surface have been located, but they are mostly out of reach, either due to height or the strange burrowing creatures that plague the region. The fungus is edible, if a bit bland, and is everywhere.
> Vast Plains - a vast field with what looks like endless amounts of wild wheat. Some of the men thought it was afterlife. Gazelles and strange predators prowl the land, and your scouts have ascertained that they saw either horsemen or centaurs in the distance, though they never approached.

>Non wasteland post apocalyptic world . Literally our world in a distant future (let's say 2050), with apparently empty cities overtaken by vegetation. Might be full of monsters and/or killer machines.

Your men got stranded in a vast plain of wild wheat. Though its yield is inferior to the one you had at home, its sheer amount more than compensate. It is labor intensive, but you got plenty of food available.

You quickly locat a water source in a nearby river and set up tents. You only need to get some game to have meat in your diet, so you send constant hunting parties.

"General, it is soon becoming clear that the rift will not open again. We must make do with what we have.", says Liberius, your chief mage.

You ponder your situation. Food is plentiful, but lumber is very scarce - an ancient tree here and there, but largely just endless fields of wheat. You do not know if this place has harsh winters.

Might be a good idea to locate more resources.

We can use dirt from the quarry and mine to start earthworks.

We should attempt to locate a good location to establish ourselves.
