How the hell do you get supplies like food? Every week all the monks hike down with a basket on their backs or something? I really want to understand the logistics of these places.

They used to use trebuchets to lob supplies through the windows but they now use high powered T-shirt cannons.

Prolly huge deliveries of grain to be stored. Maybe keep hella chickens and pigs. Couple milk cows. I would think lowering stuff would be easier than climbing stuff up
