“We arrived in the Future Hills, hoping the best that we would at least have a fine-ass start of what future opportunities lie in that hill, alas we were thinking about that the wrong way. Within that year alone we had two causalities of injury from the rampaging monkeys along with losing a rooster in the process.
As we finish up our new home, things were starting to look uncertain for the ambitions of the emperor’s tower. Their lives might be on the line and nature isn’t even cooperating to our dwarven brethren’s.
It feels odd that you’ve first start out wondering what optismisim would be like in fifty years' time, thinking about the curious wonders that’ll be passed for generations to come, only to realize about the outcome you’re about to take.
Think of this idea like a giant complicated maze of dominoes and the only endgame here is to guess which two paths would you like to knock down to get things over with.
(Note: I know that sounds stupid, but that’s how it rolls)
I’m starting to question if their speculations about our emperor going to the dogs are starting to become real. What will he do with us next, are we going to dance around willy-nilly around this dang fort ‘til he says go?
Last time we checked on him before embarking on The Future Hills is that he was rambling mad about the next ‘evolutionary’ step in this planet about the possibilities of merging one’s conscious to another because of a fever dream from days back.
He told me that he was in a city that looked very alien and futuristic to him, even the cars and gadgets were far advanced to our knowledge as he described it, then there was a purple humanoid-like creature with the weirdest of headgear announcing a “cure” to the surrounding civilians along with their pets.
Needless to say, the scene that he witnessed in that dream wasn’t a pretty sight in all honesty.
However, what’s all-important is that we’ll be expecting to see a message from him about the plan to build his wonder of the world around a year after our establishment. I don’t see any shady dealings or whatever sudden snags that we’ll end up having, but I’ll buy it for now.
But still, the possibilities of him going insane and that the plan will fail might happen someday or maybe not depends on whatever you’re talking to. What I need now is to see what happens in our story and how would we handle our problems now.
The Speculations are still up to grabs and will continue to do so until a possible solution pops up.” – From the pages of the Foggymachine Chronicle, Urdim Asteshshetb’th and his successors and descents
