Those thoughts, however, were something to keep to herself. Regardless of who was right or who was in the wrong, she still had work to do. The bulk of what needed to be done was construction. As much as Atani wanted to put her skills in sturdy design to good use, it seemed there were already citizens who had that covered. She just hoped that whatever blueprints were drafted up, they made for a better building that could withstand storms. But of course, as Atani was still very new to the area, she wouldn't know what it looked like before, so she wouldn't know if there were truly any improvements or not.
She did all the work requested of her. She assisted in carrying supplies, hammering in nails, cementing stone, solving various problems that aroused during construction, and whatnot. Though the citizens knew she was a member of a wizard's guild, she still refrained from using magic around them, still out of fear that it would somehow get out of hand and that she would end up causing even more damage. But she simply gave the excuse that she liked to conserve mana whenever possible. It was good enough for them, and by the end of the day, substantial repairs had been made to the buildings. Atani was rewarded, and her work in Marigold came to a close.
