Stack them continuing the pattern already there. Ever few feet put in the gravel. And pour in water with that green fluid in it. It causes a vine to grow in the gaps till it fills every tiny space. When the bricks get to 12' tall its done. A construction mage will lock the bricks together. Then you seal it with stucco. The vine comes to the top and makes the green topping you see everywhere. I am using a berry vine. It will top it with a thick raspberry crop. Eat them any time. You won't finish for a few days. Just keep at it.

The work is hard but not backbreaking. The Dasa is tasty and does seem to dull the muscles but not the mind.

Despite the Dasa, exhaustion is setting in. Rafe will have to decide if a couple more house of labor working on the attic sleep space is worth it. At least its just clearing junk furniture out.
