Iris kept thinking about it as she walked.
The injured survivors had been taken care of. Claire was still with them, making sure nobody decided to ignore their injuries and wander off again. The bodyguard had been ordered to rest, though Iris doubted he would stay still for long.
The others had gone back to whatever they had been doing before the hunting trip.

They were going to gather resources.
They were going to hunt monsters.
They were going to level up.
And they were going to get hurt.

What she needed was a way to make sure those people could return alive.
Iris opened her Lord's Panel.

The list of available structures appeared in front of her.
