All right! no more brewing for me.
Special Orders:
1. Build x2 beds (appropriate the wood from the next shipment sent over by Crashthunders)
2. Two rooms dug out directly below Cobble's bedroom and the dining room, each 3x5 with doors on the south end.
3. Build x1 wooden casket.
4. Place the casket in the west 3x5 room and assign it to Rosa.
5. Destroy all beds. Put the best bed in Cobble's bedroom (assigned to him) and the second best in the east 3x5 room (assigned to Rosa).
Standing Orders:
1. Carpentry Requests (Bins, Barrels, etc. Whatever we need I will build)
2. Smoothing (Everything!)
3. Engraving (Everything, but the floor of the lowest Z-level room.)
Secret Orders:
Since my special tunnels haven't been dug out yet, I really don't have anything else do to this round. They are the same as my last post.

Dig out all of the + and the 1, then build a wall at the location of the 1.
(hopefully this will not trap Rosa.)
Once done she will fill 1 with a wall (I'm pretty sure dwarves build from the left by default, right?)If she has time after digging this have her build a floodgate and a hatch cover out of rock and dump them in her bedroom.
OoOoooOoOoOoOoOoOo
Rosa walked though the walls of Lamid Beavus, her step unusually light for the time of the day, or perhaps the lack of it. As she carefully walked down the rough and gritty steps of the small cavern that had been her home for nearly a year now, doing her best not to upset the small tray of food she balanced in her hands, she nearly smiled. After all, things were shaping up nicely despite some minor setbacks.
Rosa stopped at the towering granite door that marked the entryway to Cobble's dining room. Her smile faltering as she looked over the rough surface of the furniture. It had seemed so long ago, and she so foolish, that she had made that door. But now... no, never again. With a clench of her jaw Rosa knocked sharply on the door, her small hand reverberating against the thick stone.
A brief moment passed before a mild voice within replied, "Come in on in." The cool tone almost more offsetting than the door. However, Rosa let her nerves drift away as she forced the cold granite open.
"Rosa! It's good to see you." Cobbles said, his face pleasant as he sloughed though the thick helping of plump helmet on his plate, working his way around the woody core with a determined look, slurping up a small handful of pulpy mushroom before continuing, "Plump helmets again for everyone's dinner I suppose. There's nothing else to eat, and nothing more dwarven!"
Rosa stiffened at the mention of food. Her mind racing to the last three months spent working arduously in the field and still while Cobbles bargained with the traders up top. Both of them had nearly starved back then, and Rosa had no desire to wish to remember that. Fortunately, the new immigrant to Lamid Beavus was far more inclined towards the field than she was.
With a slight Rosa lifted her own Plump Helmet to his toast, deftly nipping off the top with the edge of her teeth, "It's more dwarven than dying of thirst or on getting hewn by goblins, at least" she replied nonchalantly, peeling off a thin strip of plump helmet with her belt knife, "you heard about Mekali's misfortune, didn't you?"
Cobbles looked at the ground uneasily, his normally cheery face troubled, "I've heard that they have gone deep into debt... but a death? No, I didn't hear that."
"Yes, it was their brewer. Somehow the poor fool died of thirst while he was asleep. A sad thing..." Rosa said, her voice distant and sad, "and the Trader is out to get his head. He owes that bastard a lot of money."
"The Trader is as the trader does." The male dwarf replied, giving Rosa a stern look, "He gave Mekali a fair deal, and it's none of our business."
The two of them ate for a moment in silence, neither of them willing to talk while they cut away the soft flesh of the mushroom and ate it in a relative silence. However, once again it was Rosa who broke the silence. "I also heard that Mekali is planning to make lots of food and alcohol."
"So, what about it?" Cobbles said inquisitively, chewing on the woody center of his dinner for a moment as he worried the last of the mushroom off.
Rosa shifted awkwardly for a moment, then she continued, "I was thinking we could bail him out. In exchange for a favor at a later date. Having another lord in the debt of Lamid Beavus has the potential to be very beneficial for us."
"But they don't have anything we need or don't already have. What would be the point?" Cobbles insisted, scratching the top of his head inquisitively. His face shrouded in confusion.
Rosa scraped free the last of her plump helmet and stood up, walking over to the door and unlocking it smoothly, "I just think it might be a good idea. Think it over Cobbles."
