Unga Bunga!!!: Against the Flow

The river is useful right up until it comes into your house.

Unga and Enk have brought their families to a new spring. Now they must keep it useful. Water has to be carried, roofs have to stand, and the neighbors are remarkably attached to the things they made themselves.

Better skills let the friends attempt bigger work. They do not make bad ground firm or a weak cord strong. Every shelter, vessel, and shared path must survive use by people who need it now. A failed experiment can cost more than a level-up will mend.

As weather and hungry predators press closer, Unga must learn the difference between having a good idea and making a place others can trust. Enk will help. He will also remember every time Unga said the plan was simple.

Against the Flow keeps the LitRPG builds, bloody danger, and buddy banter grounded in work that changes lives. The family is growing. The ground beneath it has other plans.
