Oh, no! It doesn't go that fast! But the sooner we can get it done, the better, right? We probably should have done it even sooner than that, but I wasn't sure who to ask.
But, I think if we can figure out the logistics of it, if we get an engineer or go to the library and see what's hidden there, we might be able to get some energy. Limited, of course; it might only be able to be used in the hospital or surrounding areas to the windmill and that, but it would be something, right?
A waterwheel on this river might be enough to run a mill, but not to generate the kind of electricity that would power a small settlement.
You'd need the force of falls. Even a micro hydro project would require careful planning, and even by a simple survey of the river....it's very doubtful.
I was educated in a world with very advanced irrigation systems that ran primarily on hydroelectricity. While I am no technical engineer in that field, in quick-glance comparison this world's resources are insufficient for the sort of generator you have in mind.
But perhaps among the worlds represented, there are alternative forms of energy. What is commonly used? How many of the population are even from worlds where electricity is familiar? I would begin surveying the technologies available...and unless we have skilled technicians...well. Such a task is a long term project.
Our resource wasn't isn't something that can be used here, I'm afraid. I don't think we will be able to bring much to the table in help on that front. But I'll see if I can get any information that might be needed, if that would help.
Right, and I don't think any one person should have to have the city depending on them. Especially if the gods suddenly send him home; then we're back to square one.
There isn't a Lifestream here, so I have been wondering where the power comes from to cast it. I still don't know, but I think it's pulling it from ourselves.
I'm okay. I don't use magic as often as other people.

....I didn't realize summer finished up so quick.
I could help out a bit. I can carry things, when I'm not guarding stuff.

What about solar energy? Or Magic users? Maybe there's a way to charm a self running engine or generator.

It's...harder for me to use my magic now. It takes a lot out of me. It's...painful.

Materia? Why do you think?

Are you alright?
