Clarke arrived at his dingy but spotless office with eager anticipation for what jobs will be awaiting his attention. The room around had light blue painted walls with a wide window on the one side. On the far end of the room was his dark oak desk and above it, proudly attached to the wall was the company name; Davies construction Ltd. As the company was a popular one with very high-quality work, he and his crew were the go-to builders for the Rijik. That was one of the few upsides to their coming to power, they rebuilt loads of houses, flats and the like. With this comes employment, so Clarke had no complaints. This time was a new parliament building up by the city centre. It was a large structure with lots of intricacies. A big job. In a matter of seconds, Clarke had replied and confirmed that they will take the job. When he'd received the build site location, Clarke called his close friend and trusted employee; Thomas Acton. Thomas was rather the opposite of Clarke. He was a plump man with greasy brown hair, neck length curly beard of the same colour and ill-fitting clothes that didn't quite cover his slightly round stomach. The two men met outside the office block and started the journey to the build site.
