Ive ordered more things dug out, partally because we are out of certan types of stone, partially because we need a below-ground refuse pile, to lessen chances of casultes during a siege. The designations include a series of five large storerooms for, well, storage.

I ordered the formation of a new military squad, equiped with crossbows, headed by one Bomrek, a former ranger. I have also ordered the construction of a few archery targets in the caverns for them to train at when they arent on duty. I have also ordered the exploration of the caverns under the fortress, and plan to place orders to block off most of the access points inorder to allow our population to safely exploit them.

Work on the jails is going well, we just need a few chains forged and we are ready to hold some prisioners.

Asmel randomly dropped the barrel he was carrying and wandered off. The general concensus is that he is in somesorta fey mood. He pushed his way into a clothier's workshop, threw up a sign prohibiting others from using it and ran about, gathering various things from about the fort, including a pile of bones, some rough tigereyes, a log and some bolts of cloth.

Another birth today, Ingish Tinthorn and Datan Armorfrenzies have had their first today, a bright baby girl they have named Etur Arrowskunks. I also took the squads off of going after the kea that they cant seem to find, lettign them do whatever.
Also, it looks like the kea was captured in a cage trap at some point. Well.. Thats...

yet another birth today, this time to 'Caroline' Blazedbooks and her husband Mistem Machineaqua. The boy, their first male offspring, has been named Vabok Pinering. He looks like he is going to be an ideal canadate for the military someday.

Guess what Asmel was working on for the past week? A glove. A single woolen glove. And not just any glove, a glove decorated with wool, bands of square cut tigereyes, and random spikes of wool, wood and bone.
Atleast its worth something, 8420GCU, but it would have been rather nice if there was a left hand glove for it...
Oh, also, according to Asmel, it is named "Bowclutches the Celebrated Comedy". What a name.

A giant toad has been spotted in the caverns, attacking Goden the gem cutter. Both squads have been sent down there to deal with it, as a spot of real training. Sadly, before it got dogpiled down and killed it it managed to kill Likod Luslemkogan and got a few injuries onto Goden. The final blow was from Kol the hammerdwarf. A sad fate, but our doctors should be able to fix up the wounds on Goden's neck and right upper leg. According to the docs, Goden needs a crutch and some surgery, and appears to have motor and sensory nerve damage. When I asked what the hell they meant by that they replied that it was sorta like the control cables used in some of the larger constructions.

While going thru the pile of debris from the cavern fight I found that the toad was given a name fater it killed Fikod. Now, heres the sadly amusing part: They named it Primbeetle. Yes, Primbeetle.

Tekkud the Axedwarf really likes his shield, or atleast so it looks like.
Also, the river froze over, and the millstone assutch is unpowered, so...

The first chain for the jail has been ordered to be placed and the reaminder have been placed back down.
28th Moonstone, 127
Ordered up the start of a new kitchen area, or atleast five work areas for various workshops. I also ordered the furnishing of the jail area, or atleast half of it, the offices and the guard armory/training hall. In other news, the cavern archery range has finished, the replacement for the lost marksdwarf has joined up.
Oh, and the trade deal with the Mountanhomes has gone thru, what they really want appears, in this order, seeds, shields, drinks, ammo, blocks, fish, plants, headwear, earrings and anvils.
Oh, we may have some issues with the watersupply, since its all frozen. Well, something I will fix at some point.

Ohhhhhhhh crud. Ah... someone just screamed that theres a giant humanoid iguana with blue glowing eyes and blocky close-set cinnamon scales. To make matters worse, accoding to what those who can hear it are saying its shouting about how much Song Sotukstozu wants to eat our flesh and drink our blood. Well, time to shut the gates, get the army ready, and hope to heck we kill it without it killing us.
But... it got inside the gate before we noticed it. Ah fuck.
It headed right for Lorban Brandedfigures and bit her in the lower left arm, majorly fucking it up. She managed to get away, but not before a spurt of blood erupted out of her arm. And then Lorban decided to, instead of heading to the hospital with all those wonderful doctors ready to save her life but instead back into the fight. But now it has grabbed Id the sworddwarf and is chewing off their leg... And now is chewing off their right hand... And has switched to chewing Minkot the Marksdwarf's right leg... And their head... And is going after Bomrek's head... Im guessing Bomrek went to save their subordinant and got chewed on for the trouble... And now Ezum is getting chewed on... First the chest and now the head... ANd now Kikrost is getting gnobed on... Arm, leg, hand... And dead. Probally blood loss. Anyways, Tekkud and NAV have waded in, along with a random dog, recently killed... And now its eating NAV's foot...
And suddenly, its a goblin. Well, thats slightly easier to kill. And the little bastard is trying to run away. Cue dogpile from the vengful populise of the fort... Sibrek has chopped off their foot... And their neck... I think its dead. Yep, dead. Good ridence. But at what cost? We have atleast five injured, one dead...
Also, somehow Sibrek managed to sut the neck off of the gobbo without seperating the head from the rest of the body... That takes talent.
But with nine in the hospital and no water? We may be screwed.

I orderd the constructon of a minecart tunnel leading from the cavern stockpiles (one of bolts, various food ones, and lotsa stone storage) to the upper levels, for (at the verry least) stone transport.

There is a cave croc on the loose, it has been attacking Ingish the herbalist, along with Morul the farmer. Both squads are going after it. However, it has allready killed Ingush, and is currently going after the rest of the fort. Ingush's infant daughter has been unmolested, and now the croc is attempting to make its escape, but one of the traps has caught it with a rock, allowing Moldath the farmer to beat on it. Atis the hammerdwarf has came in and started beating on it, eventually killing it with a smack to the head that jammed the bone thru the brain, severing it. The croc, according to its killer, was skilled enough to earn a name, which Moldath is now stating that it is named Giltsubmerged.
