Dear Urist McMason,
I know that there are many things a dwarf needs to stay healthy, and that staying healthy is quite important.
Still, a even better way to stay healthy is to wall up the damn passage into the caverns, where a silver forgotten beast was residing.
Now, it resides in our fortress, making ALL of our darfs unhealthy, just because you had to eat, drink, sleep and THEN party instead of walling the damn 1 tile passage up.
I will now make you a burrow at the beast's location.

Dear Sqauds the Parity of Crystal, Molten Spears, and another whose name escapes me for now,

You guys are awesome.  Truly.  You're poorly equipped, half-assed trained, and yet you've killed countless cavern critters, a small goblin ambush, and best of all, an ETTIN.  You took down the berserk child before she could cause major trouble quite nicely, too.  But for the gods' sakes, did one of you have to hit that tantrumming recruit quite so hard?  A punch in the nose would have sufficed.  Now I have to engrave a slab for him.  What an ignoble end.

I look forward to sending you against the first Forgotten Beast to visit, when it does.  I hope you won't mind me sealing the cavern behind you until we see what happens out.

Proudly,

Your Overseer

Dear Overseer,

The beauty of the command system is that the commanding officer thinks all of his soldiers are drunken idiots, and all of the soldiers think the officers are drunken idiots.

Both sides are correct.

Surely Drunken Idiot is an honorific among dwarves?

Also Dear Dwarves,
The goblins are behind a 4 tile thick solid granite wall with a magma moat. Just because you can see him does not mean he can kill you. He does not have voodoo eyes!

Dear Mayor Urist,

I know you like thrones. I know you love them soo much, that you wanted 3 new thrones and putting an export ban on it. Next time, just ask me to put them in your room instead of putting an useless export ban on thrones...

Your overseer.

Dear Necro,

I know you love ballistas, but if you want them, you should mandate them, and not ban the export of them. We never even made a siege workshop to manufacture ballista parts!

With magma,
Necro

You say that as if dwarf and idiot are not synonymous.

Granted, we're leaving out "savant," but still.
