Today the human caravan arrived, bringing with it much needed supplies. I am bringing up some of our preponderance of tradeable trap components in hopes that they will find that acceptable.

The caravan finally finished unpacking their goods today, and we bought out nearly the entire caravan for just a few of our fine silver corkscrews. I threw in a few extra out of appreciation for coming out here to trade with us in this Armok-forsaken land. They, at least, still know we are here, still care about us, and embody the true spirit of the Fellowship in their actions.

My fellows reminded me today that in all of the excitement going on, I’d forgotten to order the construction of our guild hall. This will be remedied immediately. I have also decreed that dwarves who are important to the fortress’s well-being are no longer allowed outside of the fortress walls, to prevent any more deaths of important dwarves.

Author’s Note: Sorry for the lack of pictures, there are some complications there that I’m not motivated enough to try to work around. If you all really want pictures, I can try to work around it, though. Also, there is now a burrow labeled “inside” where I have every dwarf I deem important to the fortress’s security in. As of the time of this writing, there are 14 dwarves assigned to it.
