Description

Clay is a sticky and soft resource found in clay tiles that can be easily formed into pottery items like clay bowls or clay jars. Masons also make use of clay as a bonding material for the stone bricks used in guard towers and stone forges, or to mix the better bonding material mortar to build stone houses, for example.

Clay, once dug up, has a high decay speed and is pointless to store for more than a few days. Clay tiles can not be lowered, only risen, so drop dirt or sand with care.
