The site is really coming together and we hope to put the finishing touches up soon. We’ve made it much easier to update the site, so look forward to a more up-to-date show of the progress we’re making in the cavern.

Speaking of the cavern, we’ve been lucky this Friday the 13th (still a little less than two hours left for something to go wrong!). There have been no major incidents reported at any Subterranean Restorations sites and work has progressed nicely. We’ll be working on updating some information about the site very soon. Currently the teams are slowly working their way through the Residencies and evaluating the artifacts recovered from the Art Museum. The evaluation teams will be going through the Marketplace over the next few days to see if the area is structurally sound enough for the other teams to go in to recover some of the artifacts.

As you can see, we’re still finishing up putting the site together. We’re working on the Bios and Projects page and look forward to getting them up soon. Other portions of the site will be changing to attempt to make the site less daunting to newcomers. The Subterranean Restorations team thanks you for your patience.

In cavern news, a portion of the residential area collapsed last week due to quake-weakened supports. No engineers were inside the structures and the area was not thought to contain any artifacts in a restorable condition. Additionally, the restoration team successfully repaired one of the Art Museum’s main pillars which had similarly been damaged in a quake. Lastly, the survey teams completed their cataloging of another of the residences. We look forward to getting organized enough through this site to begin offering Restoration Projects again.

Hello

I know that Subterranean Restorations has been quiet recently. With this new site (and a few additions to the team), however, we hope to be able to keep the explorers up on the latest news regarding our restoration efforts. To that end, here are some of the events which have happened in recent months.

Early February saw the departure of two of Subterranean Restorations’ primary funders. Olivia Whitefield, technology specialist and forum manager, decided to leave in pursuit of other journeys. Her location is unknown at this time. Meanwhile, Professor Julius Clarke, text restoration team leader and surface liaison, left to find new sources of funding for Subterranean Restoration’ dwindling funds.

With uncertainty over the state of the Bahro and no funding secured yet by Professor Clarke, in late March some of the restoration teams left D’ni for the surface. Some are finding new jobs, others are helping the Professor find a new funder.

Most recently, in early April, a linking anomaly severely crippled Subterranean Restorations’ efforts for several days and the teams have been unable to link to the main instance of the City to resume work on the Art Museum. This anomaly seems to have affected all explorers and, with reports that Bahro were seen in the cavern in various places the night before the anomaly hit, we are considering this the work of the Bahro. Thanks to quick planning and co-ordination of the remaining teams by Vincent Kingsley, we have been able to come together in a single instance of the cavern to work.

Currently, Subterranean Restorations maintains a workforce of two teams of five people each for restoration and cataloging of artifacts found in the Art Museum District. The teams have grown smaller in size recently, and Subterranean Restorations is always interested in getting more help. We hope you will help us restore some of the great artwork of the D’ni and thank you for your interest in this project.

We’re pleased to open the new Subterranean Restorations website! The team looks forward to finally using our web presence to its full potential. As with all our operations, if you have ideas and/or are willing to help implement them, please contact us! We look forward to working with you.
