|Value First City<br>Porous<br>Ivory<br>Remembered<br>Celestial<br>Auroral = But it's not enough to allocate enough people [...]: there are additional questions of ability and determination and leadership. [...]

And so it takes a good long time before the tasks are shared out. It was worse, Furnace says, when there was iron involved.
|Value Bethlehem = The difficult part is coordinating with the arrival of proper supplies; that requires cross-reference with journey time to the nearest station, and the expected schedule of trains. "When they run on time," adds Furnace, unnecessarily.
|Value School of Beatrice = But it's not enough to allocate enough people to each task: there are additional questions of ability and [...] empathetic manner.

Bedside manner never mattered when all you were attending was a metal track. You get the notion Furnace misses those days.
|Value Nocturnal = But it's not enough to allocate enough people to each task: there are additional questions of ability and determination and friendliness to lost members of the general public.

Furnace humours all this [...] But it [...] makes every other worker feel, if only briefly, that their efforts belong to an arcane and majestic plan.

|Value Cenotaphic = But it's not enough to allocate enough people to each task: there are additional questions of sensibility and eloquence.
