Chapter 3: LegendsThe first bars of steel that this fortress has seen have been smelted. They were then forged into a steel battleaxe for Urist the Axedwarf. May it soon taste goblin blood!
Several chinchillas have walked into the animal trap. They shall be the first to serve in the undead training room.
Our brethren have arrived with a trade caravan. We bought much steel and iron armor, enough to patchily outfit the army. No one has a full set, but it’s better than nothing.
The weaponsmith has had a strange mood! YES!!!
Awww yeah! I was talking to her earlier, and she mentioned a preference for war hammers. Hopefully this will cause her to forge one.
Today will be the first use of a highly experimental concept: a zombie training room. We will chain a necromancer near our training area, and then when he raises his zombies, we will kill them before they have a chance to fight back. We will gain huge amounts of realistic combat experience. If this works, we will be legends!
After using the zombie training room for the first time, it was horrifying. Even I almost couldn’t continue because of fear. I had to give Udib a short leave because I could tell he was on the verge of insanity. It was worth it, though; I would already consider myself quite skilled at hammerwielding. I am not quite a legend yet, but
I plan on continuing my training under the next overseer's rule and so I will hopefully become even more skilled.
We have received an… unexpected guest.
He was immediately captured in a cage trap, though, so I will leave him for the next overseer. My reign is almost over, and I have only one thing left to do: build myself a tomb that will last long past the time when my bones have crumbled into dust.
