I think someone is obsessed with planes crashing...
But the coat of arms idea sounds good. You know, you really can be artistic with sea-shells - I live near a house which has several sea-shell pictures covering it, all of which look impressive.

* MaW finishes construction of the final tower. Five now stand tall in the sunlight, with walls and battlements between them. Kneeling down, MaW digs a tunnel through one wall to be the gate, then starts digging the moat. Sand flies everywhere *

* decides to make the moat three feet deeper, due to all the extra help *
