House Fire by Alexander

    Late last night, a fire broke out in Tikal, killing one person. On first look, people hoped there would be minuscule damage, but on further inspection, most of the crops were destroyed, along with several palapas. Peope will not be satiated for months.

    Many men, women and children, some shouting expletives, were pulled from the rubble, but another did not make it out alive. One person died but the repairs will cost possibly as much as two or three temples.

    According to the builders, the repairs should take between four and six months. The Foreman demands the job be done in three months, but that seems inconceivable. As a minuscule detail, donations to the homeless are accepted.
