Scout the Clay Yards (Outsource Research) → “Before stacking, check which quarries have the best clay—hire a few helpers if it saves time.”

Lay Initial Bricks (Start Anywhere Interesting) → “Pick a corner of the skyline—maybe French Revolution art patronage—and start shaping a few bricks there.”

Trace the Mortar Lines (Follow Connections) → “See who’s talking to whom, which scaffolds touch which towers; before long, you map the hidden network holding the skyline together.”

Keep a Builder’s Notebook (Track Patterns) → “Record which bricks are solid and which crumble; this way, future layers go faster and straighter.”

Dead-End Bricks (Know When to Stop) → “Some clay is cursed—Cartesian duality for the cultural-body skyline? Nice idea, but maybe leave it in storage until you have time to tinker.”

Double-Down on Strong Material (Focus Where Interest Hits) → “Once the promising bricks appear, lay them thick; your skyline grows faster where the mortar holds.”
