I gazed upon the items that Robur brought, I had no idea that a bunch of sticks and rocks would unlock a new room.

XP:1/10 Tiles:22/30 gold:140 mana:124/125(-125)
After wondering in where to build the new room, I called my level 3 Imp to start digging, but before that, he would claim 3 more tiles forward.
My plan was to start the entrance on the second new tile, and the third would have a new door.
Once this task was done, the Imp started to dig to the right, the workshop for now, would stay next to the Food Storage and I also added another door at the entrance to close this new room.
Building 4 tiles of a Workshop will cost you 60 gold.
Do you wish to build?
Yes? No?
(At least the workshop is cheap? Built it now!)
Crafting tab unlocked!
New options available on Crafting tab!
(So this is the workshop?) I pondered, looking trough the eyes of my Imp, at first glance from outside, it was a normal room, but inside, if you turn to your left, you could see new furniture and tools.
On the first tile on the top left, stood a long wood table with two chairs, several tools also hagged on the walls, supported by the red rubies.
The tile on the right had a furnace just next to the table, an anvil stood in front of the furnace and a semi-circle small stone pool was on the right, stuck in back wall of the room.

(Show me Crafting tab!)
As I asked for this new tab, a warning appeared on top of it for 15 seconds, only to disappear afterwards forever.
Warning!
Only Imps and experienced Minions can craft items!
For minions to learn how to craft, they must watch the Imps and other minions doing this task!
The learning capability will depend on the minion!
Time of crafting will depend on the minions!
Confused at this new information, the warning disappeared, allowing me to see the new tab.
Crafting tab is divided into subsections, chose one to see further information inside.

(Robur, Elder goblin!)
"Yes Boss!" The two shouted in unison, on this moment, they were in the goblin nest room, their shout surprised the other goblins, giving them a small jump scare.
(Any of you know how to get me vines?)
"Uh?" Robur was confused upon hearing my question while the elder smiled.
"Robur, vine come from tree!" The elder told us as he grabbed his beard with confidence.
(Good that you know, Robur once you rest, take a few goblins with you, I want you to bring me more resources, wood, stone and also vines! Is that clear?)
"Sure Boss!" Robur happily punched his chest.
(Well, open up Crafting tab Weapons again, please.)

Constructing 2 small stone axes and 5 small stone spears will cost you 7 stone and 12 wood.
Do you wish to proceed?
Yes? No?
(Yes! WEAPONS!)
The consumed resources now disappeared, but the items were not built yet.
The following weapons were added to the queue of the workshop.
2 small stone axes -> 5 small stone spears
Please command at least one minion to the workshop to start production.
I decided to put my level 3 Imp to work on the workshop, while the first one, would stay on guard at my territorial entrance.
As he sat on the left chair, inside the workshop, the required materials for the first small stone axe appeared on the table and the Imp immediately started his work.
Slowly, the first weapon was completed, taking almost 30 minutes to be crafted.
At this time, after resting, Robur led 3 male and 3 female goblins to the forest to collect resources.
Meanwhile, nearby to the East, several shadows ran heading West trough the forest.
Suddenly the group stoped, and two new shadows appeared in front of them.
They were all brown wolves.
"Report!" (???)
"Lead Hunter, we found some of the members of the missing group along with gray wolves, they are all dead!" (???)
"What about the rest?" (Lead Hunter)
"I don't know, but, theres two other scents, one I do not know of, but the second one is of a goblin!" (???)
"What! Are you certain?" (Lead Hunter)
"Yes! I am sure!" (???)
"Return home, report all this to the patriarch, tell him that I request reinforcements! Go now!" (Lead Hunter)
""At once!"" The two wolves shouted before leaving to the East.
The leader now stood there silent, while the rest of the group stared at him.
Breaking the silence, another wolf approached the Lead Hunter. He was older, dirtier and had a scar on his left eye.
"What now? I did not expect the goblins to cross our border..." The old wolf spoke.
"This situation is getting worse, it was not a big issue for the Maktraka clan to enter the neutral zone, but now to even cross our borders..." (Lead Hunter)
"Its not just that, young one, what if they captured one of our own? Or some the gray wolves? There is a high chance that the goblins now know about what is happening in our territory!" (Old Wolf)
"I know, with most of our forces scattered hunting for the remaining grays, it would be hard to stop an invasion as most of our hunter packs are busy in the south." (Lead Hunter)
"So what now? Theres a chance we could catch the survivors of the battle if we depart at once, but we also have to protect the western border..." (Old Wolf)
"I will watch over the Western border while you take your pack forward into the neutral zone." (Lead Hunter)
"So I will rescue our missing brothers and kill the ones that keep them captives?" (Old Wolf)
"Yes, but if you think you cannot win, fall back at once!" (Lead Hunter)
"It will be done Lead Hunter!" The old wolf shouted and a second later, he and a third of the wolf group jumped forward.
