So the capitalist pigs at Starsoar think
they can beat us, the Union of Soviet Socialist Dwarves, to our rightful claim to the reaches of space? They, comrade, they think they are too smart for us. But alas, our spies have returned with a most precious secret - a secret bound in pitchblende, or should I say, the ore of uranium! Yes, at Ironveil, we shall soon harness the intense energy of uranium to power our space ship and to arm our warheads!
I, Mosus Whipdusks, General Secretary of the USSD, shall lead our motherland to victory and unite the world and galaxy under the glorious ensign of the Hammer and Pick!

Weeks after arriving, we have finally moved all our supplies down into the canyon where we plan to build. Blueprints for the barracks and dining hall have been laid out and the perimeter wall is under construction. My fellow comrades and I will have no problem defending this place if necessary.

Some who share our dream have managed to locate us, bringing our numbers to 16. I immediately put them to work, hauling the stone out from the barracks. Their unquestioning loyalty is... pleasing.

Some merchants have come to embrace our socialist ideals. While we figure out their skills and what to place them on, their goods will go to the stockpiles for redistribution. One of them insists that he has connections and can smuggle goods from Starsoar. However, he seems to think that Sodel Daggerlanced is in charge. Sodel better not get any ideas, or he might be taking a trip to a very remote location sometime soon...

It was an ambush! The defectors that came in last month have turned against us! We have managed to subdue them, and they are now awaiting their executions.

The new year. The capitalist scum saboteurs were executed by stoning last night. Sodel is under surveillance. Not under his knowledge, of course.
