28th Moonstone, Year 33, Early Winter
Two of our young ones just reached childhood. We are having a party to celebrate. I have even been invited because I am a friend of a friend of a father’s friend’s son. The best thing about this is, they give out double the booze when one reaches childhood. I think I will bring out a barrel of my secret whip wine collection for the celebration. Might even give the little tikes a barrel each.

I don’t know why, but I feel like having two whips made. I like whips. They make the most satisfying cracks. And I am not talking about when you snap the whip.

Pressure. . . Flashflood. . . . Drowning. . . . What am I going to tell her husband? First thing first. I have to block off that area from the rest of the Fortress. Next thing is I have to solve the flooding issue. I think I have a way but it will take all the dwarfpower I can muster and the rest of my year to do it. All other project have to be stopped. Hopefully my successor will be able to tell what it is that I am trying to accomplish, if we live that long.

One whole month of worry and anger. I broke down for one whole month. We lost two dwarfs and our Liaison. I lost my temper and my beard. Of course I had a secret one made, but I don’t think I am fooling anyone. As soon as it turns spring, I am out of this. It’s too much for one dwarf. I saw a bloody wall of water.
That’s nearly enough to crack any dwarf. I was just not made for a lead role. I am going to have to step down. I . . . . I know what I am going to do. I should write something more cheerful down. Earlier this month we had another set of triplets.
The parents and friends of the family partied, but not for long. Bunch work needed to be done. I am draining the whole lake and giving these bodies their proper due, the hard way.

I feel as if have put some serious strain on the world with my many mistakes. The large hole I made, hoping to drain out the water from the lake, retrieve the bodies, and close up said hole so that the lake my return to its full glory, just managed to make a lake in the cave. Granted, I just made the first artificial, underground lake
, and the largest to be attempted for many years to come, it was not my plan. Nor did my plan actually go anywhere. It also seems as though anger is starting to rise from my leadership style, so it might be best if I back off for a while and wait until things blow over or until this place is at its worse to come back. I have made a plan for a secret training room behind my bedroom, where i will be able to practice and improve my tecnique with the whip. once that is complete, I will retire until need for my services reemerges.
