Story below, images in -Spoiler- tags
1st GraniteLawec, our previous overseer, decided that turning a block of wood into a pincushion was more fun that managing this fishing village, so I volunteered to take a break from engraving and start giving the orders
Upon review of our animal companions, I decided we had too many worthless ones; so I’ve ordered the butchering of our horses (except for one male and one female, in case a future overseer decides they make great pets) and I’ve ordered our dogs to be trained to help our hunters and our soldiers.
Some of our dwarves were unhappy sleeping in the same room as other dwarves, so I’ve ordered some of the empty bedrooms to be filled. And, in order to make room for future expansion, I’ve ordered some more rooms to be dug out (with wider hallways, as I’ve always hated squeezing to let another dwarf by me in the halls).
I’ve ordered some more trees chopped down (I hope those pointy eared bastards complain later), however the last remaining grove of trees is very far from our defensive perimeter. The area looks safe, despite the horse bones and the blood and vomit soaked clothes lying there, so I wish the woodcutters good luck.
12th GraniteConveniently, Kogsak, the lazy planter, organized a party the same moment the elven caravan appeared on our border. I’ve designated a stockpile near our depot for any finished goods and any unusable armor and weapons from our slain enemies (except for the metal ones which we can melt down).
13th GraniteHahaha! Those damn elves ran straight into a goblin ambush
I’ve told our military to hold inside our walls.
14th GraniteWell, we caught two goblins and the rest chased the elves away. However, Ingiz and Bomrek were cutting trees in the haunted grove when they spotted another ambush! I’ve ordered the military to help them. I can only pray they arrive in time.
Bomrek tripped and was immediately set upon by the entire ambush party. Lokum Tileshoslan, Olngo Ozseuksos, and Catten Cubuoronul Dallithsosh Ireg began attacking the ambush party, when woodcutter Atir, ignoring the possibility of even more goblins outside, ran into another ambush party!
I’ve ordered the rest of the non-military dwarves to stay inside. And I hope Reg Kolzon can use his spear to save Atir.
15th GraniteAs Atir was killed, Reg ran away from the fight, screaming about being stationed in another area. Lokum Tileshoslan managed to avenge Atir by killing the entire goblin raiding party.
All in all, we lost two dwarves, captured two goblins, and retrieved an entire caravan full of free supplies.
19th GraniteWe just can’t catch a break! While salvaging the items from the caravan, Dastot Ostmosus found another goblin! He claims he heard it mutter something about ‘supple dwarf children,’ enraged, he used this bow to kill the goblin instead of waiting for the military to arrive.
23rd GraniteDastot ran into another pedophilic goblin right outside our gates. Needless to say, he promptly shot it between the eyes. I promptly assigned him 2 hunting dogs as a reward.
6th SlateConstruction has begun on a ‘death’ house, where we shall put any rotting corpses and body parts. The stench will stay locked inside.
21st SlateSome migrants arrived today! The news of the goblin slaughter must of spread. The total count was 21, including:
1 Metalcrafter
2 Furnace Operators
2 Woodcutters
1 Potash Maker
1 Animal Caretaker
1 Animal Trainer
1 Tanner
2 Hunter
1 Fishery Worker
1 Glassmaker
1 Metalsmith
1 Engineer
6 Peasants
1 Kitten
1 Bull
25th SlateDue to our increased population, Jervous has decalred himself Mayor and thinks he deserves a dining room, a cabinet, a weapon rack, and an armor stand! I directed the other dwarves to see to his needs, only because I’m building much better quarters for myself on top of the ‘death’ house.
1st FelsiteIn order to self-promote his promotion, Jervous threw a party!
17th FelsiteI’ve designated our pool as a meeting area so more dwarves will learn to swim. Sooner or later we’ll be able to fight those carp on their own terms.
24th FelsiteLokum Tileshoslan, our heroic spearmaster has given birth to a boy. May he grow up to be as strong as his mother.
13th HematiteA human carvan has been spotted! It immediately ran over a goblin snatcher.
14th HematiteWhat is it with caravans and goblins? Olin, our Metalsmith ,and Vucar, a stonecrafter, were surrounded by goblins today. I mobilized the army to protected them.
The caravan found another raiding party. After stomping some goblins, the caravans prompty left. I hope they don’t blame us!
15th HematiteWe lost Vucar in the attack. It seems the caravan left because some of the guards died and a trader and his donkey were struck with melancholy.
4th MalachiteNo one was using the pool and everyone was scared to build a statue in the pool, so I tried to collapse one into the pool so I could tell the other dwarves it was a ‘sculpture garden.’ However, the cave-in destroyed the statue and knocked a peasant unconsious.
7th Malachite No migrants came this season. I guess word of the latest goblin slaughter hasn’t spread.
8th MalachiteI was wondering what was holding up any stone construction.. It turns out our stonecrafting and mason dwarves got themselves trapped on top of the refuse house
28th MalachiteI decided to engrave my own tomb. I’m not sure what came over me
15th GalenaIden Solamiden,a spearmaster, has given birth to a boy. I was wondering why all the military dwarves smirked every time they told me they were “sparring”
17th LimestoneA caravan from Bomrek Ilir has arrived! Maybe I should order everyone inside…
28th SandstoneThe merchants left. I traded a lot of the goblin armor and elven goods for some alcohol, steel armor, metal bars, gems, cheese, meat, and seeds.
10th OpalWe finished expanding the underdocks today. I’m not sure if we’ll ever be able to fish there, but at least it looks nice.
22nd OpalWe finished construction on a joint Sculpture Garden / Zoo. Current inhabitants of the zoo include:
Cow
One-humped Camel
Fox
Cougar
Dog
Mule
Grizzly Bear
Donkey
Bull
1st GraniteWow, this year has gone by fast. The whole last month was spent partying at the Sculpture Garden/Zoo. At last night's New Year's party, I had a little too much Dwarven Rum and admitted that I had no idea what I was doing when ordering other dwarves around. Apparently, the other dwarves didn't like this fact and they decided they needed a new overseer this year. Good Luck!
Notes for the next overseer:
-there are like 5 goblins in cages in the animal stockpile
-I'm not sure why everyone refuses to swim in the pool
