Sorry guys, real life got in the way. I've got about an hour and a half to play, I might be able to wrap it up now.
We've got another temple going. Some wise-guy named it the Monastery of Ghosts, and the name stuck. Not sure I'm happy about that, but there it is. Hopefully that'll get some of the people who want to pray going a bit better.
Spring has rolled around, and I'm considering a successor.
There's a lot going on that's not useful right now, but I'd rather not cancel because we might need it later. In the mean time, I'm not sure why we need step ladders.
Feels like time is moving slowly. There are a lot of menial chores that need doing, and not so much in the way of excitement. Even the scholars don't seem to be getting much done.
Carefulrogue died of dehydration. I have no idea how, it seemed there was constantly someone hauling water for the injured. Alas.
Udib Ruthoshiden has also succumbed to dehydration. He served well.
I have passed control over to our miner, who claims to be Imic. I hope his memories of previous times are less cloudy and confusing than mine; they may be of use here.
I must write up a formal log elsewhere.
The book ends here. At the beginning of the next is a more formal section in the same handwriting.
Overseer's log, 6th Slate 555.
I am handing over control to Imic.
Items of note: The new bedrooms (F2) must be handled extremely carefully. Any further excavation will release the trolls. There are some trolls in each wing except the bottom wing.
The outer drawbridge is raised, but no others are. There are assorted half-finished projects set up to mostly finish themselves.
Those that will need finishing are:
The safe magma reservoir, which is waiting for a floodgate to be constructed, and will then need the lever linked to the gate. Then the last tile can be channeled out,
The perpetual motion machine needs a carpenter to build the waterwheel, the pump started, and then all that should be needed is to connect the canal to the reservoir and the wheel to the pump. After that it should be extensible pretty easily, just switch off the pump, modify, and restart. The reservoir may need topping up after expansions. Or before them.
Otherwise, I've left some orders up with the manager to keep things ticking over. Good luck, Imic!
Arx's logs seem to end here. The scholars might uncover more later, but with the end of his reign it seems unlikely he'll have kept it up on paper.
Save soon. It's in the process of uploading.
