[After the requisite amount of time, a blinding flash fills your vision. When it clears again, you find yourself standing (or sitting, for the less balanced among you) on the beach … except you’re a hell of a lot smaller. And the sand dunes are a hell of a lot bigger.
You and your knights are each approximately an inch tall, with exceptions made for the lucky dragons and other large non-humanoids, who are the correct size, proportionally. A large flat stretch of sand is on one side of you, with a fresh mound of easily moldable sand next to that. Not that there’s any shortage of sand on the beach. In addition to that, you will find a box full of tools that you can use to craft your sandcastles, including shovels in all shapes and sizes, buckets, cups, and other basic sand stuff. There is also a box labeled SPECIAL SUPPLIES, which has the following items in it:
+ One flag (in team colors)
+ One collapsible drawbridge (push the button to make it life-size)
+ One collapsible portcullis (same as the drawbridge)
+ One cute plastic dragon (person-height)
+ One packet of “instant moat” (just add water!)
You will find that all the tools work at amazing speeds with very little effort. Constructing an epic multi-story castle is very doable even within this short time frame.]

Re: BUILD
[going to start attempting making one, then. It doesn't look very good at all]
Re: BUILD
[ Starts on another tower. ]
"High" is the best place for humans to watch the stars.
Re: BUILD
I guess it's not going to last long without support. Watch the stars, though? That's pretty romantic.
Re: BUILD
[ Taking a while to finish up the third tower. ]
Re: BUILD
Re: BUILD
They are... important to me.
[ Starts work on the inner wall. ]
Re: BUILD
Important...?
Re: BUILD
and then getting started on outer wall ]
Stars are light.
Re: BUILD
[ build build build ]
So, what next now...?
Re: BUILD
[ Going over to the special supplies and building the drawbridge across the two walls. ]
Re: BUILD
[not doing anything for now, just looking over the special supplies]
—what's with that ring?
Re: BUILD
[ And shrugging at the ring. ]
Re: BUILD
Re: BUILD
[ Puts the portcullis in the wall aligned with the drawbridge, even though it just goes into the moat and isn't really useful. ]
Re: BUILD
Re: BUILD
[ Kind of paper mache-ing the outer wall with seaweed in circular and spiral patterns. ]
