Out of Character:
This my first attempt at documenting the progress of a fortress. Generally, I will attempt to tell the story from the perspective of the dwarves, probably focusing on the starting seven.
World: Emeteyo, The Eternal World
Dwarven Civilization: Katthirrakust, The Nourishing Tombs
Embark Group: Kulsimcog, The Superior Boot
Fortress Name: Istratheral, Jewelvessels
The Starting Seven:
Momuz Avuzaral(F) - Expedition Leader & Farmer

~from the diary of Momuz Avuzaral, Expedition Leader~
Year 100, the 15th of Granite
Why? Why did they pick me? I was recruited for my skills as a broker and I ended up being chosen as the expedition leader. Maybe I really am the most qualified. This area looks nice enough. By order of our Queen, Dumed Nethas, we have been sent to establish an outpost on the edge of The Desert of Bridging. Thankfully, we were not sent to the heart of the desert. Surveyors suspect that the the area is rich in minerals and the stream will provide us with water if (Armok forbid) we run low on alcohol. Some of the others have spotted sturgeon and snapping turtles in the stream that can serve as an early food supply. Vegetation is sparse but we should be able to procure sufficient wood from a few of the large trees. Ast is out felling trees as I write. Tun and Vucar are digging into the earth and the others are gathering wood into a stockpile near what will become the entrance to our outpost. There is much work to be done. I'd better go help with the hauling.
