3rd Sandstone, 1064:

A mason is working on a secret project, and a hydra has been sighted.  Yep, life is normal here at Abbeyverse.

[Kazindir]

Woo, moats looking good 

Although I worry about all those dogs and horses at the bottom of the currently dry well, I have a nasty feeling that wounded guards up in the Foe Flusher are going to be given "special" water, enhanced with all manner of, erm, minerals and organic matter.   

[Keldor]

6th Sandstone, 1064:

The hydra killed a cat, chased a mechanic around, scared a merchant, and set off the foe flusher before one of the Fortress Guard arrived and slew it.  It was quite a sight, the two of them battling in the raging waters!



Not all news is good, though, the moat appears to have sprung a leak, and the renovation project is being delayed by the influx of water.  What I can't understand is why the leak seems to be coming from the area by the front gate.

[Keldor]

Kol Idenfath, the secretive mason, has created the most wondrous statue!  Bâsennäzom Beradil, or Spraydreamy the Earthen Wall.  As the name suggests, it depicts Bëmbul Ingulushat battling with the hydra as water surges around the two of them.  It's quite a sight!  Still, I wonder how Kol managed to make it, since he started before the hydra had even appeared!



I was talking to Bëmbul about it earlier, and would you believe that he has never been in a real fight before the hydra came?  Surely he's blessed by Armok!

[Keldor]

I think the dogs and horses belong to the masons.  I've noticed that at least one of them has a sizable entourage following at all times.

[Kazindir]

Ah, the Foe Flusher. Didn't think of that...
Oh well, there are enough pumps scattered around!

Good to see another hero rising from the Guard.

[Keldor]

15th Sandstone, 1064:

It's hard sometimes working with all my war dogs following me.  Maybe I should see if there's anyone around that would like a pet dog or two?

[Keldor]

19th Sandstone, 1064:

Migrants have arrived!  No doubt they want to try their hands at elephant or carp training.

[Keldor]

26th Sandstone, 1064:

The moat renovation project has been completed, and none too soon!  The King Consort has been muttering about hammerings if his abbey isn't worked on soon.



((Now I just have to figure out how to get the dwarves to stop taking "shortcuts" through the moat so I can flood it again))

[Keldor]

12th Timber, 1064:

Uzol the engraver decided to float
her wonderfully crafted felsite toy boat,
so she brought it down into the filling moat,
but swim she could not, so her corpse did there bloat!

[Keldor]

24th Timber, 1064:

Some events must never be forgotten.  One of those events occurred in the early Autumn of 1059.  I'll never forget that wonderful arrow.  It's truly fitting that the engravings in our King Consort's chambers depict events of such gravity.

[Keldor]

3rd Moonstone, 1064:

The last couple months have been quite peaceful.  This is most assuredly a welcome development, as it has allowed us to focus our resources on building the great abbey.  With Armok's blessing, we may even finish the foundation by the end of the year!  Already the building area approaches the surface.  What was once a distant shaft of light from the surface is now grown to something much more skylike in shape and size, and preparations to expand the work area from the great support pillars extending down to the bedrock to the foundations of the walls themselves has begun.

Uzol the engraver decided to float
her wonderfully crafted felsite toy boat,

I'm scared!  No wonder the migrants are relucant to come here, I bet there are spooky young dwarven girls hiding round the walls and singing things like that...

Can't quite figure out why they go down there though, I can't think of any stairs out other than under the gate house and by the well...

That engraving is brilliant - celebrating the theft by a kobold of a goblin arrow from our lands. 

[Keldor]

15th Moonstone, 1064:

An ambush!  Goblins have been sighted near the bridge!  The military has been called to arms.  These goblins should be dealt with promptly.

[Kazindir]

Are they....weeing against the wall?!
