Here's some updates
Diary of Ast Aragolden, expedition leader.
5th Granite
Today night something weird happened.
While I was in my room, about to tuck my self under the blankets, I felt as if something weird was looking at me,
as in if in the darkness of the settlement, there was a strange unspeakable thing staring at me.
Naturally, as most dwarves would have reacted, I knocked my self out with a shot of plump helmet wine, falling in to the arms of Urist Feus (Morpheus)
Then I dreamed of unnatural looking landscapes, with a specific geometry that my eyes never recognized.
I felt as if I was out of my body, exploring something in a different plane.
There were some huge cyan pillars in some parts of the landscapes, that were erected in ancient times by some weird
tentacle creatures, some of them whispering unintenllingible words to me

I ordered the construction of a temple, with the entrance located right in front of the hospital.
There we have placed statues of said tentacle creatures of my dream, hoping to receive some sort of enlightment.
Some dwarves were not amused with said "abominations" of nature defiling a holy place, but I do believe in some way
that there is something weird about this place, and we need to find out what it is.

Today I held up a reunion at the tavern.
After tasting some fine beverages, I decided that we had too many generalist workers, and specialized some of them
in to being dedicated farmers, and some to be dedicated stone worker who will focus their skills on producing
high quality stone furniture or crafts.
I believe this will increase our stockpile of food as well give us valuable trade goods.
We also struck native gold.
That wont do us any good if we can't get a proper militia.
Also..... a goblin made his way right in to our small fort, claiming to be a bard.
Did they already discover our outpost?

The supplies have been moved in for the sake of accessibility, giant cockatiels roamed outside but everything's going smooth.
Also I have walled off the main entrance and made a long tunnel, for the sake of giving us more time to pull the lever in case of troubles.
We might as well place some traps in the tunnel....

Apparently some new faces have arrived but guess what? THE OOZE GOT THEM
As much as I want to rescue them, I fear for the safety of my companions....
Also, what good can blind dwarves do to us? Their eyes were melting right in front of me....
I need a drink.
9th Felsite
OH GOD, WHAT'S WRONG WITH THOSE MORONS?
Can't they see the dead child as a display of the cruelty of this damned place? Nooooo....
They had to try their luck and step in to the ooze, screaming as they navigate through it!
To my horror, some of them managed to crawl in to the fort...
AH what I am saying, even the one who were blinded magically stood up and went to the safety of our fort.
Now we'll have to pray to Armok that they survive their infections!
1th Hematite
I regret that Armok actually listened to our prayers and spared those dwarves.
To my excitement they seemed to have brought some animals, giving us the chance to breed them to make some tallow for some soap.
BUT NO, they brought useless cavies...
This is the exact moment where I would melt all the hematite we found and dump molten burning, scorching, melting iron right in to their fac--
*The rest of the page would be torn out*
OOC : I carved out a crypt , made a prison (with no chains for the moment) made a temple with two statues and then I got overwhelmed by the immigrants and got scared XDD
I am kinda new to play with ASCII characters, so I am using mostly stonesence to understand the layout.
I'll post some more updates soon!
