Clearing of the bodies takes two more full days of work. The reconstruction of the smithy is under way as is the reconstruction of the general goods store. They have cleared out a space west of the roadway along the stream for Jason's building north of the smithy, and cleared a spot to the west of the general store for a Inn.
"Ah, for the ability to Stone Shape or Wall of Stone! Rebuilding would be far easier with advanced magic. Call me impatient, but I need to get to more advanced concepts of this world's magic Weave and make it work for me. Is that library still closed??" Moving from work to meal to work as the days pass. Keeping busy to avoid dwelling on my family and life left behind, and anxious to communicate with them as soon as possible.
Surprised the building I had requested was being given any kind of priority under the circumstances, I'll continue to help out where I can in the day, and working on magic items at night.
When I can, I'll spend time with Thalica, trying to make sure she recovers well, and grateful for her company myself in the face of things.
I'll be sure to ask for Grant's help with the initial setup for each scroll, since they're liable to be tougher than anything I've made before.
Out of Character: Scroll of Fireball, Scroll of Haste, 2 DC 23 UMD checks each, Ghost's Bracers of Armor+1 DC 21 only one check per item needs to be passed. Edit: Uhoh, hopefully Grant can pull off an Aid Another check or that fireball scroll is going up in flames a bit early .

I spend my time helping out as I can and training with my crossbow and mace, to keep in shape. Kelvin and I spend what time we can together and talk about the new buildings that will be built and enjoy each others company.
I will chat with the group as I see them at meals. I offer to Jonathan, that if he wishes to train when I do he is welcome.
Happy to keep busy, I assist Jason as he requests, trying to learn more about the methods he uses and the materials that go into such things.
Specific Action: Aid Another checks. DC 10 UMD +4 for inspiration once per day.
Out of Character: : Jason, I could really use a INT bandanna which would improve my rolls across the board *smile* When you find time, that is.
Once the clean up work is I begin roaming further and further into the field with Ghost. I'm trying to learn more about the area around us. The woods call me and I feel more at home in them every day. I study the wildlife to learn more about them and to have more options for summoning and wild shapes. I make sure to return to the stronghold each day by dusk.
The morning of the fifth day since the orc attack I'll get everyone together. I'll present to Rachel a pair of newly finished bracelets. They're as light and small as I can make them, and shaped to fit just behind a large canine's wrists. "A little something to keep our large furry friend safe. The effect is minor, but every little bit helps, and they can be improved."
"I hope everyone feels prepared, because we need to finish the job with the hobgoblins soon. I would prefer to start today."
"You all know the situation, you know what we're capable of, and you know what they did to us last time. If anyone has thought of any particular suggestions since the last time we spoke of it, this would be a good moment to bring it up."
Out of Character: Bracers of Armor, they add +1 armor AC, and can eventually be upgraded to a +8. It doesn't stack with actual armor, but Ghost doesn't wear any, so…
