"A leader should have power by the consent of the governed. Anything else is simply a different name for slavery."

Shem is deep.

Also;

"There will be no pit fighting while I have anything to say about it. We do not have the numbers to waste dwarven life in a fight over a decision that could be more easily and effectively reached via debate or vote."

*whispers* "Just between you and me, I think i was getting at if you are gonna tell me what to do, lets see you try and make me, or anyone else. Good point on about the future though, We will assimilate migrants into the status quo, our status quo. I wouldnt waste any time on this really if it were up to me, but here I am anyways. I do like you better now though."

"Ah. No need to worry about me trying to tell ya what to do. I might ask at some point, but it will be friendly asking you're free to decline, not an order."

"Bringing everything I have on me.
Wake at 6, eat meals at 6, 12, 6, cutting down trees/breaking surface rocks on the east side of the river all day, sleeping at 7."

Oh god. Yes, we need to change this.

2200-0500: Sleep
0600: Wake up. Eat & drink uhhh... random.
0700-1200: Chop down trees near the tent, leaving the logs where they were felled
1300: Eat & drink random
1400-2000: Help with planting crops
2100: Eat & drink random

"I'm starting to like him."

[CoughDrop]

"I'm starting to like him."

I liked him from the beginning. And, for the record, I see fit that a militia commander will be the ultimate in command whenever we are under siege. Though his actions can still be vetoed by the leader.

[Shade-o]

Shem to be militia commander? I guess he is more reliable than Mikhail...

Litast, do you want to put everybody on two rations a day, instead of three? Also those actions are a bit weird, they start and end at 2am, not midnight.

Ehhhh. I think we should have 3 rations a day, seeing as it is still very cold here, and I want everyone to have enough energy to start planting. And I am happy with the way the actions for both Litast and Mikhail are set up.

I'm sorry to bring it up again, but everyone seems to know roughly how much food we're going to be able to grow/collect, so I keep thinking I missed a message.  Though, it hardly matters if we're getting the day's results soon (:

[Lillipad]

We're both pretty equal. It's just a matter of "who would make a better and/or more amusing leader of the army?" Besides, I've saved a bunch of red shirts and sent a barge flying. I've mostly been joking around since there hasn't been much for me to do(useless human bowyers) lately.

3 months for plump helmets, 6 months for most stuff.
6 months per year are warm enough for growing
Each plot takes 1 unit of seeds
Each plot yields 0-5 units of plants.
We're all going to be eating vermin before the caravan arrives.

[Hastur]

Dont forget chickens lay eggs, and I can cook up herbs, and seeds too. A real leader would not let us starve. For the greater good.

[Shade-o]

Alright, so if everybody is content, I shall complete DAY ONE.

Wait, Litast never told the caravan anything. You must tell them what they need to bring in autumn, any notes on travel, and any messages to back home.

[CoughDrop]

I'm really not sure as I have no idea what our fortress's food output will be... Perhaps a couple of cows, a male glow scarab, and a couple month's worth of food and drink. Anyone else have suggestions?

[Nirur Torir]

That's right! I wrote a message to ... whatever I named my son last night.

I hand the letter to somebody on the caravan, describe my son, and where he lives, and then ask them to give it to him.

To Tosid
We've finally arrived at the site of our future fortress. It was a long trip, complete with an obligatory adventure. While we were stopped in a human town, one of my companions found out from the head priest that there was some sort of "scary" ruin beneath the town. Aside from a magical fear trap, and some heavy time-induced erosion, it was fairly normal. There were some stuffed monsters in the middle, as well as an imprisoned god, who we freed. Our brewer was furious, you should have seen the look on her face. I think the god came with us after being freed, but it's a bit hard to tell with gods. I received some architectural books from the humans. They had some interesting insights, which I should be able to merge with dwarven knowledge to build some truly stunning walls.

It's a bit cold here, but not too bad. There's a river, which we hope will thaw soon. We're not sure how long our food will last, but we should be able to ration it out until the next caravan arrives. It's late, and I'm exhausted from the trip. I'll write more soon, but you probably won't get any other letters for half a year.

Stay safe, son.

Multiple glow scarabs. Lots of food and drink.

Moar chickens, they can produce nearly an egg a day if they are good.
