Its Autumn now, the lads dug out a good space to stockpile wood and some places to put a carpentry workshop, at least it will keep that Adil guy busy.
I was sitting on a barrel eating some nice perch today, and I had this thought… “I’m fucking tired of sitting on barrels to eat,” and promptly had a dining room made. The quickness of it was remarkable, I think the guys are really starting to trust my word.
The blacksmith who had taken it upon himself to keep records of all our supplies and held a brief meeting with me. “I need a throne if I’m going to be record keeper.”
“I never told you to be record keeper.”
“I NEED A THRONE.”
“Won’t you need a table to set the papers on?”
“No just a throne.” what a moody fellow. I gave him a seat at the dining table, even had his name inscribed on it, odly he doesn’t use the table at all, just the seat, in fact… I haven’t seen him ever bring a piece of paper to his little “office“. Must have photographic memory or something cause every time I ask him for a count he can tell me on the spot.
The next morning I heard horrified screeching from the mountain, there must be a chasm or cave somewhere, my father had told me endless stories about the wretched monsters that dwell there.
A few days later I heard another horrific scream, but this one was different.
Goddamnit! Merchants. What are they doing here? We have nothing to trade yet, in fact how the hell did they even find us? I went over to converse with one.
“hey pal! We are very eager to trade!”
“we don’t have anything, you can just be on your way”
“how about that nice puppy litter over there? I’ll give you 5 cheese for the whole lot”
“I don’t have a cage to put them in.”
“How about I give you a superior offer? This lead cage for the whole lot”
“But if I put them in the cage and give em to you then I get nothing”
“I’ll give you five cheese and a pig tail amulet for the whole lot, final offer, not one to pass up my good friend!”
“I JUST MET YOU!”
Bloody Merchants.
