1st granite, early spring:
well it seems today that i am now in charge of this fort. The commoners have dubbed me as a bossy broker because my mandate for 3 suits of platemail Still hasn't been met. dont these dwarfs understand that i have the militarys best intrests at heart?.
1st granite, early spring (again)
i've designated a new nile style farming area to be constructed near the food stores and a few new rooms. i've also told our wood cutters to chop some of the trees across the river. they gave me a few looks but i dont see any dangerous animals about. i've also put in some channels. thanks to armoks laws here i've heard that they
do not require water in the channel. as soon as the farm area is dug i'll place some doors forbid the stone and then smooth the room and cut some fortifications into the wall.
1st granite, early spring (yet again)
theres no food!. i'm making easy meals out of 101 beer and all the quarry leaves. i dont care if the food intoxicates them. it's DWARFY! and they'll thank me for it.

thats it. the kittens and foals are getting it. we have such an extreme craving for meeeeeaaaat.
the new house fers room is nearly complete. it's by the river and will have fortifications in the wall to give a lovely view of the river. it wont flood when their inside it though. or will it?
2nd granite, early spring.
turns out my well theory could be wrong. the rooms are mostly dug out all that is needed is moar doors and beds. i've also asked for more buckets. food is up. and we have meat and a few more cooks.

my well theory was kinda wrong. they cannot be placed on channels but can on flat grpund. so far it seems that water doesnt need to be connected to the well. we'll soon see. preperations for the "MTW" device are underway. i've heard of a fort a millenium ago that was named "boatmurdered" that had a "FTW" device that decimated all who opposed them. I plan to reinact that weapon
10th granite, early spring.
the cave river is ready to flood and the new farm area is ready. those damm dirty tree-hugging werewolf kissing elves have arrived. time to "borrow" their items. i've got a creepy feeling about year 6 so i'm going to build a new and bigger crypt with a long passage and fill it full o tombs and traps. just in case.
the "MTW" device is around 40% complete. and i'm making a lever room in the noble area between the chasm and cave river for the "MTW" lever
