I'll help dig that way soon. I just need a few private squares as soon as possible.

"There is true wisdom in these words of yours... I was wondering.. How was it like, living on the surface? I myself am afraid of looking up, losing myself in the expanse... I can do it when I think of Kun but still... Its not great. The whole twilight thing is amazing though, I have to say... Maybe we could make a chamber in the mountain that captures the twilight and sunset?"

"It's very free.  No walls, no rules, very few people.  I think the solitude is my favorite part.  Er.  Sorry. I just, I get judged a lot.  And it's true, I'm not much of a dwarf.  So that's why I like the surface so much: I don't have to face all that." *laughs, not bitterly*

Calm down Norrec. I know it upsets you, but you're probably better off not caring.

I'll continue my actions, but instead of having lunch, I'll make practice bolts so people can learn how to use my eventually finished pile of crossbows. The change in rations allows for this new schedule, so I guess I should say thanks?

Private squares for private activities of course! Sure, I love company, but sometimes I need a little space of my own to do my best work.

Simple privacy! If I ever put the colony in danger, it will only be through inaction. Nothing I am planning on doing will inherently endanger any dwarf. I just need space within the mountain to focus.

Oh, let him have his hidey-hole, it's not like he can do much else right now.

He could help us, then go dig his hidey-hole.  His seeming desire not to help his fellows raises many questions.  Why does he need privacy so quickly when presumably I could do better with privacy (and a tavern to run) as well, yet sacrifice them for the greater good?  No, something is going on here and I intend to figure out what.

Cannibalism, of course. Can't go gnawing upon your fellows out in the open, now can we?
