Mortar
A binding pitch useful as a mortar.
Notes
Mortar is a binding pitch used as an ingredient in several essential construction blocks, including Mortared Stone (tier‑1), Bricks (tier‑2), and the Bloomery and Kiln, as well as for building Stone Roads and signs. Because Mortared Stone is a key tier‑1 building material that improves housing value and enables better crafting upgrades, keeping a steady supply of mortar in community stores helps the whole town progress faster.
