I'll take one more turn.
Hematite, 130.
Robotala was unable to complete his term as overseer, so I have taken command for the remaining nine months of his term. The first thing I noticed is that this is probably the most clearly labeled lever I have ever seen.
Just as I took over, the ewok-eating rancor and the bonzami we tamed from the caverns went rogue. A former beast hunter turned soldier sliced away an arm and a hand from the rancor with his lightsaber before being decapitated. After that, the lightsaber-equipped troops quickly eliminated the threat. Rainbowdash had to take down his own rancor personally, by knocking it unconscious with a swift blow to the forehead before finishing it off.

It was good of him to put the fort's safety first, but that must have been difficult for him.
Malachite, 130
Rashvir has attracted numerous visitors, lately. I have to admit this one is my favorite.
More good news, every man, woman, child, and droid in the fortress has been successfully provided with their own bedroom, with plenty of space for more. An engineer has been taken by a fey mood.
I began digging out the rancor pit, but then things went horribly wrong.
Somebody knocked in the floor and caused a cave in. Five Jawas and a loth-kitten were in the area when it happened. Imic only suffered a nasty scar to the mouth, but almost everyone else suffered serious or lethal injuries from the fall. Construction was promptly halted.
I can't believe I was responsible for this.
Galena, 130.
We have to finish the pit. Those Jawas will not have died in vain.
The artifact was finished, it's a quartzite mechanism.
I've also dispatched the squad to go out and look for any hidden attackers, since the computers still think we're under siege. A shyrack got into the fort and caused some injuries, but nobody died.
Anyway, about that pit. I'm currently dictating on a datapad to record my thoughts as I work.
Whoops. Nobody died this time, but I almost got my neck broken. WAI-
Ok. Two lessons here. One, work doesn't necessarily stop for a cave in. Two, learn from your mistakes or you might get your foot crushed by a rock.
