Great, thanks for brewing all those Plump Helmets we were going to use for food, I appreciate that greatly.

Edit:  Any map?

It's perfectly timed, actually. The last of the mountainhome booze is about to run out, leaving the pure alcohol which can be diluted down a bit. The fermentation should be complete juuust in time to stop everyone from going on water.

Map will go up shortly, basically the second level is almost entire mined out except for one sliver of rock, leaving the downstairs expansion to the north-farming room to do.

Though depending on how much stuff you scavenge from the other expedition site, you might not have to worry about food and drink at all for a while.

*Catches up with adil.*
"Hey, Adil? You okay? I hope that soon Kun will be reachable. I hope she will. I mean something might work... Oh? Sorry! Got distracted by something. Well I think its brave having water. What is it like?"

"I'M FINE!  I'm... I'm fine. Kun doesn't want to speak to me.  That's fine, it was arrogant for me to expect otherwise."
"Water is just water.  It's like eating air.  It could be worse, at least it isn't mud worm paste, or dry mushrooms.  For the love of mud, all I want is some fresh berries, and to have a little rum with breakfast.  Is that so much to ask??  This blasted frost!  *sigh*  Just a few more weeks, and we'll be fine... everything will be fine again."
"Bah, I don't need your shoulder.  I have work to do."

"Okay then! I'm sorry but your not arrogant for thinking that! Dammit! ..I'm sorry."
"..Wait. Why is the alcohol then tasting less like drink and more like air..? Fudge!
God everything here is going to fall apart... I need to fix this somehow..."

[DrunkDorfPally]

Only if the booze in question is pure ethanol.

((That's why I brought a personal stockpile, for use and negotiating chips.  XP  May I ask on my skulls status?))

"Still busy wi' th' skull huh?" asks Tor,  "Och, well since I'meh 'ere, I mightae well's ask-'ows life fer yae?"

"If it makes you feel better Norrec, I'll drink water for a couple days."
Edit. I want to change my schedule I wish to stop brewing and 1) mine, 2) look for plants to eat and brew, 3) find time to take a bath and watch cloths when it is the warmest without using soap.

Use a single boulder to make a statuette of Hipobis. Engrave it with him burning goblins, Norrec being touched by him and A string of words around the base. 'To my darling norrec, who is stronger than who that I can think of. Her determination exceeds that of adamant. She is my everything-- Urist orebalance.'

No booze, and sadly eat fresh meat and prepared meals, since fresh plants are needed for booze-making.

[V-Norrec]

Are we sending anyone back to try and pick up the rest of the stuff? 

Edit:  Because it'd be really great to have more food and booze and stuff.  And maybe get some seeds from the elves or something.

[dragonshardz]

I'll head back if we do send another team.

[Nirur Torir]

I'll start working on replacing the temporary wall with a better one this week. It should be able to repel a goblin raiding party, but won't likely long delay a real siege, with trolls or siege weapons. If you have nothing else to do, more manual labor would likely help.

I'll stay here. Somebody needs to make sure we don't get killed off in our sleep.

Spoiler: Work queue (click to show/hide)

1) Help with planting.
2) Architectural wall planning (Temporary Wall 2).
3) Build wall (Temporary Wall 2).
4) Architectural planning of Innermost Wall.
5) Yay, more stone blocks! My favoritest!

Ill stay if we do, ya gotta need rock to build a wall.

[IronyOwl]

How likely are we to face a real siege in our first year, though?

Personally, I'd like to build the real wall- the massive, impenetrable, sunk-to-the-bedrock one- as soon as the river freezes and we can dig it out where needed.

[V-Norrec]

That requires more stone and workers than we could possibly build in one season by ourselves.
