Excerpts from the diary of Oddum Deler2. Granite: So a few days ago I arrived at Crewtowns. I had been told it was in bad shape, but I was expecting famine or invasion, not this. Had to be half the citizens were in trouble with the law, a bunch were locked up and insane, and the whole surface was covered in blood. A militia commander named Yasten had seized control, and while he had kept the place from tearing itself apart, he was hardly an ideal leader. It wasn't until a few hours ago that I was told that the previous leader, named Wypie of all things, had fled immediately upon arrival. Well, I set about cleaning the place up, but there wasn't really much I could do. Oh yes, some of the miners who had for some reason been digging a shaft straight down, had struck an underground magma pit, so I ordered the construction of some magma forges there. It was suggested that I instead move the magma to the fortress, but how am I supposed to do that?
5. Granite: Raw Aadmantine - Praise the Miners! While digging out the magma forges, Nil Alkamuz spotted through a hole he was digging. I ordered the miners to dig carefully towards it, but progress is slow..
22. Granite: I ordered tha engraving of the main dining Hall, in order to cheer up some of the less happy dwarfes. Progress on the diging of the forges and adamantine is very sloe, because it is so far from the fortress. People in the prison basebent keep dying, I was going to let thm out, but Yasten said that they were dangerous and insane. I'm not convinced of his fitness to led, but he seems to know what he;s talking about so I'll takr his advice; it just seems cruel to keep them locked down there. Anyway, i ordered the diggig of several toimbs for the gratest of our warriors, just south of the barracks. Also, I ordered one of the empty rooms to be filled with beds as a dormatory for homeless dwarves, because we don't have rooms for them all.
