23rd of Malachite, year 105Again a small group of dwarves traveled across the world from mountain home only to join our community. And so eight dwarves were knocking our doors early this morning. I saw no reasons to turn them around and thus they were allowed to enter. Now I just need to find some work for them.
15th of Galena, year 105A huge elk-like titan was spotted outside our fortress today. I ordered both the archers and the Golden Depressions to station outside and kill that damned thing.
And right at the same time came the goblins.
Good thing the human traders managed to reach the fortress. And so I ordered everybody to stay inside and the warriors to station outside.
The goblins were driven away by the archers and thus only one problem remains: the titan. Unfortunately it already destroyed one of our floodgates controlling the water flow to the reservoir so it was clear it will try to enter our fortress through the water channels. The strange thing is the current of the brook is too much for it and so it is trapped beneath the surface, unable to reach the water channel. We shall keep our eyes on the situation but I relieved our soldiers from duty for now.
25th of Galena, year 105One of our dwarves had produced another artifact today. It was grate made from gem.
It has some small decorations made from bronze, goblin bones and gems. Nothing special but at least there are something in it.
10th of Limestone, year 105Everything is ready for the slaughter of several wild dogs captured inside the cages. The cages have been installed and linked to lever and the Golden Depressions has been stationed inside the arena.
The slaughter was quickly over. The poor animals had no chances against our seasoned warriors.
15th of Limestone, year 105Another dwarf joined the ranks of the Golden Depressions. This time a warrior called Dirge was allowed to become the member of the squad and he was assigned to carry spear and shield along the rest of the normal equipment. And again everything was made from adamantine.
Speaking of adamantine, our supplies are running low. Perhaps we should mine out some more?
16th of Limestone, year 105Anyone noticed that the upper levels of our fortress have become overgrown by the underground plants and trees? Well, at least I have noticed this. And we can't allow it to continue. This is why I ordered the construction of rock blocks, we shall build a rock floor over the soil floor to prevent all the vegetation to keep growing.
18th of Limestone, year 105I have heard rumors that we have been neglecting the spiritual needs of our fortress. Oh really? We already have the priests assigned! But apparently they think it's not enough and that we need actual altars and temples. Well, that's a request I can fulfill easily enough. The construction has already begun.
25th of Limestone, year 105The titan is here! It escaped the river! Sound the alarm!
26th of Limestone, year 105The titan gave a good fight to our soldiers. The battle was fierce but in the end the titan was killed. And who gave the final blow? Well, surprisingly, it was the new lad in the squad, Dirge.
So far nobody reported any wounds after the battle, which is only a good thing.
