Carpenters' Guild Lore

To say that carpentry arose with the founding of Gridania is no understatement. After gaining the elementals’ permission to fell trees, citizens have used wood in all aspects of life—to build their city, their homes, their tools, and the weapons with which they defend the forest. In time, they also harnessed the power of waterwheels for milling lumber, which allowed for carpentry to grow in scale and efficiency. In fact, the loose association of woodworkers that formed to manage the watermills eventually solidified in the Carpenters’ Guild. Thereafter, the guild has acquired its materials from the woodcutters of the Botanists’ Guild, and transformed them into all manner of wonders. [1]
