I was rather proud of building that room to exploit the waterfall, though Splint was the one who sorted out a proper drainage system for it.

All that was really needed were 4 grates in front of where it would flow.  Splint added a couple of extra though just in case of overflow, and it works wonderfully, I must admit.  I think I need to make the pier slightly closer to the waterfall, but otherwise it's good.

Also, we have like 34 idlers.

I didn't use grates when I first had it, just a hole into open space which wound up with our female cat stranded in the river at the bottom for quite a while. She even had her first kittens down there.

Journal of Karkov:

I get woken up today when someone ran up to me and threw me out of my comfy bed yelling that:



One of these days I'll move somewhere sane. 



SOMEWHERE SANE.

Why these people migrate HERE of all places is beyond me.  Ten more people decided to come live in crazy town.

[Grim Portent]

You're always welcome to move in with the furies, I'm sure they're lonely after wiping out most of our race.

Yeah but there's probably tons of screaming and bloodshed with them, not sure if my guy could take it.  Mainly he just wants to be left alone with his boulders and one person parties.

Dwarf please?

Sure I'll dwarf you.  Kinda in a rut on Starbound right now anyway.  I'll start updating momentarily.  Got a choice of dwarf you want?

Hmm...how about a hunter?

Don't think we have one.  I should have one, these winged things are becoming a nuisance anyway.  Sure!

[Grim Portent]

I sense that the buzzards have struck again.

Nah, there's like 50,000 storks and ravens though.  Update momentarily, not about the flying things.

Journal of Karkov:

I've decided that at the new year, I'm going to throw leadership at some gullible sap and leave off with some boulders and some sanity.  That being said, it's already the winter, and while I feel it's been an interesting year, I need to do something that imprints my name on this place forever.  Like a chisel to the stone.  So I've gone ahead and added a floor to the tavern, then designated it as a daycare for our little 'uns.


                           There is a roof.

I've also decided to add a little extra to the entire village, I can see it being a magnificent fortress of stone.  Of course that'd take a couple of years, so I've namely been adding a second story to one side of the walls right now.



But of course before I can get started even setting the foundation, this happens.

That seems to imply they'll be beaten.

Know how I said you killed 3? There was a lot more then 7 Jotun, and that wasn't even a full squad dead. You literally have to have an army against them, not like 7/8 people

Yay schools!

Spoiler: Journal of Bsnott, Entry 1 (click to show/hide)

Hey there, diary! Last night I was walking down the hall, out looking for a midnight snack (don't tell anyone, diary!) and I saw Mr. Karkov (he's the overseer!) He didn't seem to notice me, so I stuck to the wall and the shadows and started to wiggle down the hallway to the food stockpile. He looked over when I passed him, and looked at me like I was doing something odd.

"Bsnott, what are you doing?" I remained silent. He could be testing to see if anyone was there. You can't blow your cover when you're sneaking! After about a minute of staring at me, he continued. "Do you have a problem?" When I didn't reply, he walked up and snapped his fingers in front of my face. "You, yeah you. What are you doing to this wall?' At this point I figured that he HAD in fact found me.

"How did you see me? I was practically invisible!"

"You're as big as the entrance to the fortress, Bsnott. You aren't going to be invisible." he said apprehensively. I took it as a compliment. Did I mention that I've been lifting lately? I was hefting a seed barrel earlier today, putting it down and lifting it up again. People around me were giving me some pretty weird looks, I thought I was going to be assaulted diary!

"Oh, stop it you!" I said, blushing.

Karkov sighed deeply, and said, "Listen Bsnott, I have something better to be doing right now. They call it sleeping, and you should be doing the same. It's midnight right now!"

"I prefer to call it noon a.m. Anyway, I have something to ask you, sir! Lately I've been really BORED sitting around at the hall. Do you think you have any jobs for me?"

He thought for a moment. "Hmm...well, we have been having a buzzard problem recently."

"Call me a hunter!" I said, and ran off to the food stockpile.

[Karkov]

Ffffffff I just got to the part of winter where everything freezes.  Soon I can pass everythin- WATER FROZE, WATER IS ALL WE DRINK.  THIS COULD BE BAD.

[HissinhWalnuts]

Can I be dorfed Humuned?

[Karkov]

Can I be dorfed Humuned?

If we're not all dead, sure.

Also the guy with the mood is gonna die because he wants yarn or some such crap.  Also, someone's probably going to want to take brewing off of everybody, because I'm enabling it on them.

And these jerks keep using the barrels for foodstuffs instead of drinks.  Damnation.

Well, we have an unusually short freeze.  But that doesn't stop idiots from standing on ice when it unfreezes.  So the drinking problem should be fixed and we can get done with the rest of the half of this season.  Got a Humie you want Hissin?  And a particular name?  Or just HissinWalnuts and the nearest soapmaker?
