Kleanea's journal:
I've decided to take my role as expedition leader more seriously, after delegating to Gwolfski all of last year. I've been spending so much time digging underground that I've lost track of what's been happening to the fortress. I decide to take stock of the fortress, starting from the top.
Here we see an outside garden. It's vulnerable to goblins right now, as they can easily climb up rough wooden walls. I'll have to fix that at some point, possibly by building floors extending off the edges. The main gate looks like it has the same design, so I'll have to fix that too. Though it looks like that entrance has been walled off? Strange. Also, the wagon hasn't been deconstructed yet. And speaking of the wagon...
Why in Armok's name is there an undead orc next to the wagon?
I honestly can't tell whether this flooding is intentional or not. At least none of this appears to be an essential part of the fortress. I swear I don't remember digging any of this. Maybe I need to lay off the dwarven wine.
The lack of food is somewhat problematic. We have a large farm though, and plenty of seeds, so it should be easy to take care of that.
The undead orc chases camels on the surface. The camels appear to be much faster, so he hasn't caught any yet.
I join in with the planting, so the fortress doesn't starve to death. I think I'll also order the slaughtering of some of our livestock. I order the butchering of the horses, the crab, the plump helmet men... Wait, is it really ok to butcher those guys?
I decide to take up fishing, for the good of the fortress. I should probably secure this passage to the underground at some point. I order the masons to construct rock walls so that only the underground lake connects to the fortress. That should make it safe enough. Unless some sort of dire turtle crawls out of the lake, but what are the odds of that happening?
Kogsak Degelgulnas the woodworker has died. I believe they died of dehydration due to the other dwarves being unable to bring them water. Sadly, our new water source was not created in time.
I order the dwarves to dump refuse into the same water we drink and fish from. It's probably fine to do that?
Well that can't be good.
It looks like Sazir Rithtangath has become berzerk. He doesn't seem to be causing much harm at the moment, but I sealed him in a room to be safe. He's a little invisible at the moment, but he really is in the sealed off room!
That can't be good either!
A caravan appears. They'll be able to take down the undead orc, right? I'll go ahead and make a path to the trade depot.
I've made a mistake.
I'm sure he's nice once you get to know him.
A horned cave turtle crawls out of the underground lake and starts harassing the dwarves. I'll draft someone into the military to deal with it. The horned turtle is really in this picture, it just decided to be invisible for a moment.
End of Kleanea's journal.
Right after this the game crashed. I'll post more on Wednesday. I still have the last seasonal save to go back to. I might manage to kill fewer named dwarves the second time round.
