Early ambassador

Sometimes I get an early human ambassador coming without a caravan, only to say hi and promptly leave.  The caravan did come shortly after this first occurrence.

Did it all happen in the same season?  It's probably fine if it all happened in one summer...  that sort of human diplomat is only for stopping wars.  Otherwise they are just a placeholder chattery person.

Oh okay, yes it did all happen in the same season, caravan arriving only a minute or so afterwards.  Thanks for clarifying how chatty that guy can be ^^.  I just posted this a second ago in the dwarf fortress subforum not being sure if it was a bug or simply a feature I never noticed, but a guard beat my trader to death while the trader was working on making cages.  There was no jail system implemented, due to massive criminal activities from mostly all of my dwarves due to them being depressed after a recent war.

If you have no jail, justice will still be served, but only via beatings.  That is a bad thing.
