8. The Tattered Flag and Map Table

There is something quietly dramatic about a flag that has been through weather. Build a tall pole from stripped logs, hang a banner in faded red and cream, and let it droop rather than fly. Beside it, a table with a map, a compass, and a candle burned down to nothing.
This is the build that tells you the camp had a purpose. Explorers, perhaps, or traders on their way somewhere important. They left the flag behind, and the flag is still waiting for them.
