Extra rakes, shovels, brooms, mops and buckets laid out for any who had the desire to lend a hand....

*The cleaning efforts about the city undertaken by various good sumaritans since the siege ended have begun to show in some respects. The Docks and East Gate districts, the clearly less damaged parts of the city, begin to approach levels of rubble and trash from more normal times, while some areas of the East Gate and Docks still remain garbage or rubble ridden. But the Palace District and the Farmlands are still overwhelming covered in objects and rubble left from the damaging siege. The land in the Farmlands also seems to smell a bit odd in sections, with some crops still a bizarre sickened color and withering more than usual even in winter. Whether they need a call to Chauntea to remove outstanding blight from the undead or, just better watering and fertilizer application, remains to be seen.*

Mi-Le spends some of his time in the harbor district, offering healing to any who might be injured, and removing diseases from those who might ask.

To the extent possible, he coordinates with the Temple of Ilmater's efforts.

*A fair amount of adult wounded and lost children or orphans are said to be temporarily brought to the Temple of Ilmater and areas surrounding it in recent days by concerned Baldurian adventurers. Those whose parents claim them return home shortly and those adults whom recover from wounds leave promptly as well, often with smiles on their faces despite the hardships due to the emphatic care and support received by kind adventurers. Still, some wounded adults and orphaned or otherwise unclaimed children remain.*

Ameris continues, when he is able, his rounds in the city treating any wounded and sick, and bringing anyone who is in great need, or a child without care, back to the Temple. His treatment of general patience in the temple of Ilmater continues as well. However, some of his time is dedicated towards organising care for the orphans being brought in, and he approaches the other clergy for quiet words.

Posted around Baldur's Gate and the Friendly Arms Inn:
The Forest will NOT bear the Burden of Rebuilding
Use stone only

As the lands of Baldur's Gate has suffered, so has the forest. Between the war with Amn -- for which the forest was consumed for war machines, fires from dragons which fought wars over the lands, the orcs who overhunted animals to scarce lavels, a drought, and now the undead. These forces have scarred the forest in such a way that it is no longer able to bear the burden of Baldur's Gate's recovery. Unlike Baldur's Gate, it takes a tenyear for the forest and woodlands to recovery and therefore it will be a tenyear before it is appropriate for Baldur's Gate to use the surrounding woodlands for rebuilding. Use stone only.

Mi-Le can be seen reading one of Robin Silver's posted notices in Baldur's Gate. He stands in front of it for several minutes, apparently contemplating its message gravely.

He nods, perhaps to himself, and walks towards the Temple of Ilmater.

Michael Dunn travels to the outlying farmlands of the gate, and spends the next four days helping the first family that'll take him on as a volunteer. Clearing rubble, soured crops, and performing menial tasks - but especially learning and taking in what he can. The only thing he'd ask in exchange is food and drink, preferring to take up his lodging out under the stars. A few blankets, one in particular with an embroidered corner depicting a patch of flowers, keep him warm.

An elven woman is seen traversing the streets of Baldur's Gate, offering healing and prayer to the bereaved. She pulls the cloak from her back, offering it to a little girl and her siblings to use as a blanket. The elf then lights a small fire for which to stay warm in the night.

A male elf, adorned in fine robes then walks up and addresses the woman. "Mistress, how do you wish to proceed? Our caravan is ready, gold and gems to trade the Dukes' Court inorder to buoy their mercenary security and offer us leverage in contract negotiations", he states to her. "We only await your word", he follows after waiting some moments for a response. "No, you will trade the gems and gold for grain, dried fruit and meat", she tells him curtly, not turning around and as if not liking to be interrupted.

The elven male's eyes grow a bit wide and his response seems a bit put off, "The House will not like this Mistress, why...." he began to interject before be customarily interrupted by the woman whom turned from the human children to offer him a glowering look. "Tell me, you whom are so intelligent as to question me, when you look around, what do you see?", she asks the male elf while pointing around to streets filled with the displaced. "Peasants...", the male elf retorted. "Many peasants...", she replied before continuing, "and how many mercenaries do you see?" The confidence in the male elf's voice began to wane, "...few?".

"Very good", the woman retorted condescendingly. "So, if you were looking to leverage the Dukes, knowing that their economy lies in near shambles, that their peasants whom are now bereaved but soon to be homeless and hungry, would it not seem right to invest in the commodities which keep their majority populace from possible insurrection?", she punctuates her point with a raised brow. "That is if our House wants leverage in contract negotiation and interest...." she pauses before continuing with a slow shake of her head, "they can not feed their people with diamonds and gold".

"Um, yes of course Mistress..." the now sheepish feeling male elf states. "I will work on obtaining storage and purchase the commodities which you seek!", is the last thing he states before puffing his chest back out, turning and moving briskly off. The female elf let out a small sigh. She was bluffing she knew but she hoped that she could keep the ruse up long enough. Shaking her head, a small sense of doubt overcame her before she felt a slight tug on her boot from the little girl she had been helping. When she looked down, she saw the girl not smiling but looking passionately up to the woman. The woman forgot all about her concern. She bent down to tidy the straw bed for which the girl was laying, tucked the little girl in with her make shift blanket, sat down beside her and stroked the little girl's hair until she fell asleep.....

Thanks to the efforts of various groups the Harbor District is now free of any human and zombie remains that certain animals could have used as a snack. But those still looking around be it for easy coin or out of worry would notice some sick animals wandering about. Some of dock's dwellers report that their neighbor's dog or cat has become sick as well. The number of stray animal has gone down in the last few days. The same would go for the population of rats. Worth mentioning is the fact that no citizens have been reported ill. It seems the sickness bothers only the animal kingdom.

Sadly shaking his head, he scribes on the parchment sheet, apparently summarising tasks that need to be done. He approaches everyone who may help him judge the urgency of each of them.

Later he may be seen decidedly walking towards the Sword Coast Commercial Exchange. After entering the offices he is not exiting for the long hours, a candle light seen in the windows, shadow of him seating by the desk.

Ghrimold can been seen around the Baulder's Gate area generally helping with needed labor and healing. Not really focused on any specific task, just generally trying to help out any and everyone who needs it.
