The small elven child had asked her uncle Grunwald why there were so many children that looked different than their caretakers in the fortress, and he always answered the same way, "Your parents neglected you, so we took you all in." He was always willing to answer, though he never got any more specific, such as why his skin was green while hers was the color of wood, or why some of the children had full beards, but he was the only caretaker she'd had since she was a little baby. He pointed up at the sky, "Is that the dwarven Santa, coming to deliver goodies to all the little children?"

Well, better get these slackers busy before they drink up all our supplies.
I could've sworn we had more dwarves when we were launched...
Urist Kivishsezuk, Woodcrafter: When we got launched off, we landed a bit farther from the coast than anticipated. We had to hike for weeks to find the site of the outpost, but we finally made it

I don't know what they think is going to attack us out on this island, but if there aren't flying goblins, they have no reason to waste good building materials like this. Some traders came, I have no idea why the expedition leader ordered a trading post built when nobody could reach us, but as they say, "If you build it they will come." Since everyone else was busy, I ended up being the one to do the trading. The only problem was we had nothing to trade, so i ended up piling a bunch of random furniture and some hastily thrown together crafts onto them to get a bit of ore and some blocks of... well, they called it slade, but I've never heard of it, it must be some fancy name for something. I got it because it looked interesting, but it's really heavy. Armok knows how these traders planned to leave, or even how they got here, their cart didn't look nearly beaten up enough to have been launched like we were. I tossed a barrel of meat in with the furniture, mostly so they wouldn't starve before they inevitably realized there was no escape and came back to join our outpost.

Not many people know the king, but I heard about when he was crowned, the moment the world was generated they asked "Hey, anybody know what we should do?"
Then the soon-to-be-king said "Start building?"
