A light swarm has begun the new experiment of creating a structure. After the experience with the
border pillar, and our recent
conversation with one of the
Newmaker's
parts, we have decided to attempt making a place to hide things from the
bright animal.

An immediate difficulty is acquiring materials. The swarm that made the pillar was fortunate; the pieces of
young cloud happened to arrive at the
border section. This swarm will have to go find young clouds and looks for any that died prematurely. We have had the thought of breaking down some young clouds for their pieces, but can't think of a means of doing so.

Once again the Newmaker has been of invaluable help. One of their parts provided a collection of thin but strong pieces of material that the Newmaker says they use often for building their structures. We have seen pieces like this before, but never knew they had such a particular purpose.

Linking the pieces is proving much more difficult than we had thought it would be. The swarm that made the pillar has passed along a description of how they connected the pieces of cloud, but it seems that method doesn't work on such skinny supports. This stage will take much longer than anticipated.

The tall sections are in place! All that is left is to place a cover on top to complete the shelter. This will not be so easy to do, since no parts individually or in pairs can reach high enough. The swarm may have to learn the secret of moving through light like the
travelers in order to finish the work.
