From the Ashes DLC is natural addition with decent amount of content that focuses on rebuilding of Pribyslavitz. That is the quest from sir Divish who lets you finance this project.
The quest is accessible after completing Baptism of Fire. First you need to find his locator who will become your personal assistant and looks like the most important person of the place as he takes care of where to build what and has his own table since the beginning.
If you want to start building, you have to put enough groschen to the chest in rathaus and later find the delivery traders who will sell you resources providing further buildings’ needs.
Updated map of Pribyslavitz changes the old Cuman/bandit encampment.
You get pretty strong mace for becoming the bailiff.
Prologue and epilogue dialogues to DLC are nice.
New scenes of built structures are short enjoyment.
Simple and funny stories with locals when solving their disputes every day.
New traders with few coins at start have more later.
New horse head armor at forge and upgraded stable is unique.
3 new better horses at the stables.
Armorsmith has very good selection of high quality armors and unique strong shield.
Dry meat in upgraded bakery, smoke it at upgraded butcher which turns stolen to normal.

You are not given your own bed, however you can sleep wherever you want.
If rathaus is Henry's home, he must be very generous to share it with many people.

You can set building from the book and Marius will react.
Marius chooses where to build. You need to follow him everywhere.
You can't take down building once it's finished.
Some NPCs deny your invitation, so you need to look further and hidden in between.
Dice players seem to be little better than other ones, but still not a real challenge.
Easy to manage good reputation.
Building with Marius is repetitive. It takes few seconds and two in-game days.
Dealing with delivery traders is almost same. Find and pay. No haggling except one.
No challenge or rough decisions. It is simple. Choose higher or lower profit, never bad.

Cuman from quest Lost in translation is sitting in the village centre.
Beehives produce 6 units of honey per day that is not accumulating.
